[datasheet request] Cirrus Logic CS92288

[jmbussat]

Hello,

I'm looking into writing a Linux driver for a USB video interface that
used to be
sold by Pinnacle and then Dazzle (DV150). The hardware is very simple
but I
am missing a crucial piece of information.
The video to MPEG conversion is done by a Cirrus Logic CS92288.
Cirrus
sold its video business to Magnum semiconductors which apparently
doesn't
have anything that looks similar to the Cirrus chip anymore.

Searches on the web only return the product brief that doesn't contain
any
usable information. Unfortunately, many web pages refer to this brief
as a
"datasheet". The searches also return information about a reference
design
that looks almost identical to the DV150 (interesting no?).

So, I'm looking for the following:

The CS92288 datasheet
The CS92288 programing manual (user's manual)
The user's manual of the USB-DVR reference design based on the CS92288

The best would be a copy of the CD that came with the reference design
hardware (that contains all of the above+software examples and other
goodies).

Thanks in advance for any type of help in locating this information.

Hi JMB,
I understand. Getting a copy of the CD could be the only way.
If Cirrus cannot or will not help you, then I found the page of a guy on the
web who was involved with business development for this product. Maybe you
could send him an email. He may be able to put you in touch with someone who
could get the CD for you http://www.mattcrowley.com/

Hope that helps.
