WAVE521C is a 4K multi-format codec IP to support both HEVC/H.265 and AVC/H.264 video formats. This IP core provides real-time performance for encoding and decoding 4K60fps, up to 8K(8192x4096, 32M samples), with single-core architecture. By sharing common blocks of each video codec standard, the IP architecture becomes streamlined with minimum logics and memories fitting into small-sized SoCs. Thereby SoCs using WAVE521C are perfectly suited for applications requiring high performance with very low power consumption.
