Low latency AVC Encoder

Overview

Low latency AVC Encoder IP Core is an uncompromising solution for custom projects, the requirements of which include high performance, low latency, ease of editing the encoded stream and guaranteed quality compression. IP core is extremely compact and has features which are sufficient for use in video surveillance, computer vision, and video conferencing. IP Core can be easily integrated into the project and user-oriented work in the FPGA low price range.

ITU-T H.264 recommendations describes a wide range of methods and tools for efficient video compression. Feasibility of each of the features and profile of the AVC specification depends on the use case of video compression. We offer the best core functionality required to maximize the quality of the video stream with minimal latency.

Our H.264 Encoder cores use very simple interfaces to communicate with external logic. The core is setup by means of a control register set. The default values for most parameters may be pre-configured to custom specifications. Input and output interfaces support data streaming mode and allow external logic to control the flow of data.
