xc-422-444-CNV
4:2:2 YCbCr to 4:4:4 Color Space Converter

This core converts a 4:2:2 formatted video into a 4:4:4 RGB video stream suitable for direct display to a display.

Hardware timing is used for input and output. The output also uses separate valid signals for each of Y and CbCr.

  • Converts 4:2:2 to RGB 4:4:4
  • Interfaces directly to external syncs
  • Supports BT.656 Inputs
  • Parameterized input and output resolution size
  • Suitable for FPGA and ASIC
  • Full testbench provided.
  • Display Controllers
  • Consumer Electronics Video
  • Camera and cellphone

The core accepts interlaced or progressive inputs. The former also supports BT.656 for NTSC/PAL or raw hardware timing using vertical and horizontal syncs.

The algorithm expands the color component by doubling the horizontal and vertical sizes to match the luma component size. In addition color space conversion is performed from YUV to RGB.

Output interface uses VGA type timing for direct connection to displays

The core is warranted against defects for one year from date of purchase. Ninety days of phone and email technical support are included. Additional maintenance and support options are available.
