Video Processor and Deinterlacer with Line-Doubled Output

Overview

The VPC-1 is a high quality motion adaptive deinterlacer and video processor with line-doubled output. Additional functions include motion adaptive noise reduction, low angle directional interpolation and film cadence detection (supports multiple cadences including 3:2, 2:2 and others). When combined with Crucial IP's VSC-1 scaler core, the VPC-1 can be used to provide complete up/down/cross conversion. Verilog source code, Verilog test bench and bit-accurate C models are available as part of the license.

Key Features

  • General
    • The following input formats are supported: 480i, 576i, 480p, 576p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p and other custom formats
    • Line-doubled output (interlaced sources)
    • 8/10/12-bit 4:2:2 or 4:4:4 processing
    • Low latency algorithm avoids lip sync problems (latency can be set to 0, 1 or 2 fields plus approximately 20 lines)
  • Deinterlacing
    • High quality motion adaptive deinterlacer
    • Excellent stability in presence of noise and at onset of motion
  • Low angle directional interpolation
    • Eliminates jaggies on moving diagonal edges, even those at angles close to the horizontal
  • Film detection
    • Robust detection and processing of multiple cadences including 3:2, 2:2, 2:2:2:4, 2:3:3:2, 3:2:3:2:2, 5:5, 6:4 and 8:7
    • Bad edit detection with no incorrectly displayed frames under normal conditions
  • Noise reduction
    • Motion adaptive temporal noise reduction reduces Gaussian noise without loss of spatial resolution
    • Works with progressive sources
  • Compatibility
    • Support for both Xilinx and Altera devices
