H264 Encoder IP

Overview

H264 Encoder core is compliant with standard ISO/IEC 14496-10/ITU-T H.264 specification. Through its compatibility, it provides a simple interface to a wide range of low-cost devices.H264 Encoder IIP is proven in FPGA environment. The host interface of the H264 can be simple interface or can be AHB, AHB-Lite, APB, AXI, AXI-Lite, Tilelink, OCP, VCI, Avalon, PLB, Wishbone or custom buses.
