JPEG-LS Lossless Image Encoder

Overview

The Lancero JPEG-LS Lossless Image Encoder IP Core is a highly efficient FPGA based implementation of the ITU T.87 lossless image compression standard. JPEG-LS performs better than JPEG-2000 in most lossless use cases but with less resource requirements and no need for external memory. Encoding requires less than one line of latency.

Key Features

Leading lossless image compression results for 8 to 16 bits image sample depths
Less than one line of encoding latency
Low resource count, no external memory needed. Scales to multiple instances is easy
Pixel and data FIFO input/output or Avalon Streaming interface with back-pressure
Accepts and encodes one pixel per clock cycle
Configurable output data word width
Configurable image sizes up to ultra-high definition and beyond
