Abstract

In this application note, various benchmarks are provided for the multimedia performance when using the AM62A processor [1]. Multimedia in this context refers to the ability to encode and decode video streams as well as encode still images. The hardware accelerators in AM62A are capable of H.264/265 encode/decode and MJPEG encoding. Example use cases are described along with a systems analysis of typical use case loadings.
