SigmaStar SDK (Software Development Kit) is a collection of tools, libraries, and drivers used to develop firmware and applications for SigmaStar Systems-on-a-Chip (SoCs)
The SigmaStar SDK provides comprehensive drivers, middleware, and tools for developing on SSD20X and SSD220 SoCs, featuring a Media Integration (MI) layer for managing data flow across modules like VDEC, ISP, and audio. Development requires setting up a cross-compilation environment for building bootloaders, the Linux kernel, and user-space applications to generate flashable images.
