SDI II Intel® FPGA IP Core

Overview

The serial digital interface (SDI) II Intel FPGA intellectual property (IP) core implements a transmitter, receiver or full-duplex SDI at standard definition, high definition or 3G to 12G rate as defined by the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers. The SDI II IP core supports multiple standards. These modes provide automatic receiver rate detection and transceiver dynamic reconfiguration.
