SMP8634

This is the CPU of the box. Manufacturer is SigmaDesigns.

It is a powerful MIPS based CPU (4KCe core) with hardware acceleration for h.264, mpeg2 and vc1.

The SMP also includes a security co processor (XPU) that makes this chip very interesting for any DRM application, as all private keys are stored inside the CPU. It is not possible to get those private keys out :(

The XPU has AES en/decryption in hardware.


SDK

There is a Linux SDK and a WindowsCE BSP. Both are confidential and currently not leaked.

The X300T uses a stripped down version of the WindowsCE BSP.
