A VLSI architecture for compression and encoding of digital video signals according to the h4PEG-2 Video standard is described. The chip set is based on four different ASICs, implemented in HCMOS4 technology. Each of the ICs controls an external memory space which can be realized with conventional DRAM parts. The chip set is controlled by extemal standard microcontrollers and includes on-chip RISC machines for programmable options. With these ICs, low complexity real-time MPEG-2 encoders can be implemented as well as high complexity / high quality encoders for standard resolution video and HDTV.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
