AVC / H.264 Encoder

Features

• Maximal encoding resolution 1280×1080 for any supported format
• Maximal encoding throughput rate 720×480 @ 75fps for any supported format
• Lower resolutions with higher frame rates may also be supported, where the relevant standard permits
• Performance achieveable if sufficient memory bandwidth is available and the target clock rate of 250MHz was achieved in silicon
• Programmable Motion Estimation search range up to +/- 80 pixels horizontally, +/- 64 pixels vertically, with programmable 1, ½ or ¼ pixel precision
• CQ, CBR and VBR encoding modes
• Progressive, interlaced and PAFF encoding support
• Integrated downscaling function to support 1920×1080 input source video
• Integrated content analysis function for scene change detection and adaptive quantization
• Encoded data in elementary stream or frame based entropy coded payload, controlled by FW
• All input images for encoding shall be in semi-planar format with 4:2:2 or 4:2:0 sampled chrominance or in YUY2 4:2:2 mode.
• Compatible with any host CPU, typically ARM926, MIPS4K
