- Video conferencing, live streaming, and recording devices
- Portable HD capture devices for PCs, phones, and tablets
- USB audio/video input modules for embedded systems
Design Notes
- The public page specifies a maximum input of
3840 × 2160 @ 30Hz, while the default maximum USB video output is1920 × 1080 @ 60Hz; these are different bandwidth levels. - MS2130 lists only YUV422 and MJPEG USB output. Compare MS2130S / MS2131S if RGB24, NV12, higher USB output capability, or richer audio interfaces are required.
- UVC/UAC compatibility on Android, Linux, macOS, and Windows should be validated with the target host, application, and capture format.
- Production designs should be based on the authorized MacroSilicon SDK, firmware, reference design, and board-level validation.
