Introduction

The AL260-EVB-A8 is an evaluation board used to demonstrate the highly integrated Video Enhancement capabilities of the AL260 IC. It
supports video input with multiple video formats and can output with De-interlacing and Scaling effects .It can be used for most video conversion and processing applications.

The AL260 is equipped with a high quality scaling engine that automatically maintains full screen output display, regardless of resolution of the incoming signals.

Employing AverLogic’s proprietary scaling algorithm, the primary input
video can be scaled up and scaled down independently in horizontal & vertical directions. It also provides film detection, advanced de-interlacing, filtering, and scaling that can convert and process into interlaced video to be
displayed on progressive panels.

AL260 has a built-in 3-channel DAC for non-interlaced analog output and also
24-bit digital output.

Applications for the AL260C Chipset

• LCD TV
