Overview

This is a high speed 16 state maximum a posteriori (MAP) soft-in-soft-out (SISO) error control decoder with log-likelihood-ratio outputs for both the data and parity bits.

Key features

  • 4, 8, or 16 state soft-in-soft-out (SISO) maximum a posteriori (MAP) error control decoder and systematic recursive convolutional encoder
  • Up to 2.5 Mbit/s decoding speed for all states
  • Rate 1/2, 1/3, or 1/4 with optional punctured inputs
  • Optional microprocessor interface
  • 6-bit received data, 8-bit soft-in and soft-out data for information and parity bits for all rates
  • 8-bit branch metric inputs for rate 1/2
  • Continuous or block decoding (with or without tail)
  • Programmable code polynomials
  • Able to decode (n,n-4) cyclic block codes
  • Minimum decoding depth (MDD) of 32 or 64
  • Low decoding delay (from 66 to 257 bits).
  • 17 programmable SNR's for optimum performance
  • No external RAM required
  • Asynchronous logic free design (except for global reset, no set or reset signals are used)
  • Ideal for iterative decoding of parallel or serial concatenated "turbo" codes
  • Available as BIT/MCS files for download into Xilinx XC4000 or Spartan field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) or EDIF core. Actel, Altera and Lattice FPGA cores available on request.

Practical Considerations of LDPC Decoder Design in Communications Systems

This paper covers some practical aspects of designing the LDPC decoder starting from comparison between different techniques, different decoders parameters or standards, the effect of those parameters on the LDPC performance, also it discusses the algorithm selection process, and floating point implementation process.

Audio Transport in DisplayPort VIP

DisplayPort uses Secondary Data Packets (SDPs), which are transported over the Main-Link that are not main video stream data. This allows it to carry audio and video simultaneously. The VIP supports audio transmission both in the original mode as defined in the specification as well as just as any other SDP being transmitted.
