Description
AL9V576 is a real-time
MPEG-4/2/1 video/audio encoder chip that fully complies
with ISO/IEC-11172, ISO/IEC-13818, and ISO/IEC-14496.
The video encoder accepts uncompressed ITU-R BT.656. It
filters the input and compresses the video into
MPEG-4/2/1 formats. The audio encoder accepts two
independent channels of digital audio, filters the
input, and compresses each audio into MPEG-1, layer 2
audio formats. AL9V576 multiplexes the video and audio
streams as transport streams for network applications or
program streams for storage applications. |
