IP-cores for FPGA & ASIC

Your mezzanine compression for HD, 4K & 8K.
At the speed of light.

intoPIX has developed various TICO RDD35 architectures running a different pixel per clock to target a wide range of resolutions and a wide range of FPGA devices & ASIC technology nodes.

TICO RDD35 is a revolutionary compression technology, extremely tiny in FPGAs & ASICs. It fits into the smallest Xilinx & Altera devices, robust for real-time operation with no latency. It offers a very low gate count & SRAM consumption in ASICs.

Features

Image/Video features	Color space: Any (RGB, YCbCr, YUV, XYZ, RAW bayer) Color Sampling: 4:0:0, 4:2:0, 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 Bit Depth: 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 Interlaced & Progressive frame Resolutions: Any (SD, HD, 2K, 4K, 8K...up to 10240x10240 pixels) Frame Rates: Any (depending on intoPIX IP-core configuration & targeted device)
TICO RDD35 compression (Latency, Quality, Rate Control)	(Sub) intra-frame Real-time operation guaranteed (no overflow or underflow) Fixed latency - Selectable from 3 lines up to 11 at decoder, from 6 lines up to 18 at encoder, lowest latency with Profile 1 Adjustable rate for lossy / visually lossless / math. lossless (1.2:1 to 1.8:1) CBR (constant bit rate) operation (optional capped VBR mode) TICO profile 1 & 2 support SMPTE RDD35 compliant and beyond Embedded x2 downscaler / proxy option in decoder
FPGA/ASIC implementation	Low cost implementation in any FPGAs: very low FPGA logic and internal RAM usage Fit in the smallest Xilinx Spartan-6, Artix-7, Kintex-7 and Kintex Ultrascale Fit in the smallest Intlel Cyclone V, Arria V, Stratix V, Cylclone 10, Arria 10 Low Gate Area (low gate count / low memory) for ASIC Encoder and decoder have approximately the same complexity IP-core customizable per application, delivered within an HDK to speed up the integration Various pixel per clock implementations
