Broadcast

 

Xilinx offers high-performance, cost-effective solutions for video and audio interfacing, real time HD video processing, complex video and audio compression codecs, forward error correction (FEC) and modulation and other broadcast system functions such as memory controllers, embedded subsystems, and protocol bridging. Xilinx and our partners offer:

    • Support for the latest compression standards such as H.264 and JPEG2000, with hardware acceleration for video processing in excess of HD rates
    • Flexible and upgradeable solutions for migration between standards, such as SD to HD, MPEG-2 to H.264 or HD-SDI to 3G-SDI.
    • IP and reference designs enabling the adoption of existing LAN/WAN infrastructures for video over IP and IPTV transmission.
    • Forward Error Correction and modulation systems for lower cost-per-channel digital TV transmission.
    • Hardware platforms for connectivity evaluation and video/audio algorithm development.

    Our available resources, organized by function and type, include:
