MPEG-2 HD Encoder Codec Module

4EC-VA-MPEG2-8B-60-1080-MD00C-SX660

Description

SOC's MPEG Codec Modules (SoM) are small, yet powerful processing System-on-Modules (SoMs) built with FPGAs/SoCs, DDR3 memory, EEPROM/Flash storage, and multi-channel audio processing capabilities. SoMs come pre-configured with SOC Technologies' high-performance IP cores, reducing costs of developing low-latency all-hardware video coding systems.

Codec:

Encoder

An encoding system receives raw video from a camera/player/PC and transmit Transport/Program/Elementary Stream(s) to a destination over UDP.

Standard:

MPEG-2

MPEG-2 is the first-generation MPEG Codec Specification. Although the MPEG-2 compression efficiency has been largely superceded by the newer H.264 and H.265 standards, many organizations still rely on on the MPEG-2 standard.

Channels:

Four

Supports encoding/decoding of up to 4 input/output channels at the specified resolution and frame-rate.

Precision:

8 bits

8-bit is the most common color precision. A balance of compression and quality, sufficient for most applications.

FPS:

60fps

60fps supports frame-rates up to 60fps including FPS/1.001 (59.95, 49.95, etc.)

Resolution:

HD

1080p Full-HD Codecs (FHD) are optimized to process frames up to 1920 pixels wide and 1080 pixels high. Resolutions exceeding these limits may be prepared by special request.

Codec FPGA:

Intel SX660

This Product's Codec IP Core runs on Intel's Arria-10 SX660 FPGA
