The JPEG Encoder is a highly efficient IP solution crafted for superior image compression, leveraging in-house developed technologies to provide high-quality image processing capabilities. This encoder supports up to 12 bits, offering two main variants that cater to different performance needs. The L1 variant focuses on monochrome or YUV420 multiplexed pipeline encoding with a pixel clock capacity of up to 150 MHz, whereas the L2 variant allows dual pipe encoding for high-quality YUV422 with pixel clock capabilities of up to 100 MHz.
Ideal for machine vision applications, this encoder IP delivers reliable and streamlined video streaming functionalities, particularly across FPGA platforms. Its design ensures robust streaming performance, supporting formats like RFC2435 standard MJPEG for networking applications. A notable feature of this encoder is its compatibility with UDP/Ethernet streaming, making it perfectly suited for applications in surveillance and broadcasting, where real-time video data transmission is critical.
Moreover, the JPEG Encoder is specifically engineered to minimize power consumption through its clock synchronous, distributed operation mechanism. By doing so, it addresses the stringent power requirements of modern embedded systems, ensuring efficient operation in a compact footprint. This product, available in both open-source and proprietary forms, underscores section5's commitment to delivering scalable, high-quality video processing IP.
