1. Introduction This evaluation board (EVB), AL361A-EVB-A1 demonstrates 4K Multi-Channel display function with HDMI/AHD video signals. This EVB includes HDMI receivers and AHD receivers. HDMI receiver, IT6604 which supports two 1080 60p inputs, and AHD receiver, NVP6134 which supports two 1080 30p inputs, IT6604 and NVP6134 can be enabled through AL361 s internal MCU. There are two output ports designed on this EVB, One is HDMI output through HDMI transmitter chip (Silicon Image Sil9136), the other one is digital output connector through the AL361 output bus. There are more hardware s functions designed in this EVB, such as keypads, and GPIO. It has many video display modes and users interfaces, such as 4K picture-in-picture and 4K full screen. These functions can be uploaded by an USB Debug Tool. 1.1 Key Features One AHD 1080 30p input, one HDMI 1080 60p input, and one 4K2K HDMI output. 4K2K PiP, PoP and full screen display. ISP (In-System-Program) program upload supported. 1.2 Application Video Processing Multi-inputs display, and format conversion. Multi-channel Display- PiP, PoP, and Multi-display. 4

4. Firmware Update 4.1 Window Tool The ISP Tool software named AverLogic.exe will work with USB Debug Tool (an USB to Serial cable for firmware update). The software (AverLogic.exe) can be found in the SDK. 4.2 Firmware Update Procedure Preparation You can update a new function code to the EVB with below tools. 4.2.1 Windows AP USB Debug Tool (USB-DebugTool-DMB-A1) application program (AverLogic.exe) 4.2.2 USB Debug Tool (USB-DebugTool-DMB-A1) 7
4.2.3 New F/W bin files 4.3 Firmware Update You don t need to provide system with power when you are in the update mode. 4.3.1 Remove the short pin s header from EVB 4.3.2 Connect the USB Debug Tool to EVB PIN 1- System Power x NC PIN 2- Flash Power RED PIN 3- Flash I/O CS BROWN PIN 4- Flash I/O SDO GREEN PIN 5- Flash I/O SDI YELLOWE PIN 6- Flash I/O CLK ORANGE PIN 7- Flash Ground BLACK PIN 8- System Reset x NC PIN 9- System Test x NC 8
4.3.3 Update new code to the EVB Use the Windows AP to update the bin files. Path: Target_0.bin Click Run to update the bin file. 4.3.4 Connect the short pin s header to EVB 5 Software Development Package AverLogic provides complete AL361 SDK for product development. AL361A-EVB-A1 HDMI/AHD Multi-channel Display EVB demo functions are also included in the SDK package. Customers can use Keil C to edit user s interface like keypads and OSD display to link with video function. Besides, they can build and upload new functions to this EVB. ALF platform is a framework for using AL361 SDK. AverLogic also provides documents to introduce API functions and describe the code structure for helping customers develop products easily. 9
