HEVC/AVC Single-core Video Encoder HW IP of Low-cost Version: 4K60fps

Overview

WAVE521L is a low-cost 4K encoder IP to support HEVC/H.265 and AVC/H.264 video standards. The IP core provides high-performance encode capability up to 4K60fps with a single-core architecture and an optimized silicon area for 4K Ultra-HD applications. This IP core is able to encode any resolution up to 8192 x 4096 and guarantees real-time performance for encoding 4K60fps based on its sophisticated, latency-tolerant HW architecture.
