Default "AAX DSP" plug-ins same as TDM format plug-ins?

Trying to understand the difference between these two formats when looking to purchase plug-ins that say "AAX DSP" supported.
I'm running Pro Tools 10HD. HD3 Accel.
Thanks.

No, those are two different DSP platforms.

Right, they are different. However there are some ilok authorizations that will open both formats. Be very cautious when purchasing though. Do your homework.

Thank you for providing this link Johnny. So, basically AAX DSP plug-ins are the "new and improved" versions of TDM plug-ins? Just written for Avid HDX systems. Is that what you deduced from it? I am still running a PT10HD HD3 Accel system (non HDX) so I should be able to run all AAX DSP plug-ins and will perform like TDM plug-ins, right?
