Video IP cores for Nextreme ASICs
Easic and Video-Cores have announced the availability of video IP cores for the company's Nextreme ASICs.
The combination of Easics's technology and Video-Cores's Core Values video IP provides video system designers with a quick path to implementing custom functions such as video scalers, colour-space converters and ITU 656 interfaces.
Video-Cores's portfolio of video building blocks is used in a number of applications including professional broadcast, prosumer cameras, consumer electronics and industrial vision.
The suite of cores certified on Easic's technology include three downscalers (two horizontal downscalers, 2:1/4:1 and 9:8, and a 2D 2:1/4:1 downscaler); two colour space converters (YCbCr SD to RGB and YCbCr HD to RGB) and ITU 656-4 compliant, 10-bit encoder and decoder.
These cores are available to Easic customers via Easic's EZ-IP Alliance Program.
Video-Cores's video building blocks for Easic's devices include full source code, documentation, self-checking testbench and VCD dumps to allow users to start or complete their Easic designs.
