Video Decoder IPs

WAVE517

WAVE517

WAVE517 is the world’s first real-time multi-standard decoder, including AV1, hardware IP. This IP core is a multi-standard decoder HW IP, which is optimally designed and architected to support real-time 4K Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) video decoding in HEVC/H.265, AVC/H.264, VP9, AVS2, and AV1 standards. The multi-standard HW IP, WAVE517, is targeting 4K Ultra-High-Definition (UHD), which is the first in the industry to support a large portion of almost every codec standard in the market, including the next generation AV1 standard. The WAVE517 is architected for real-time video decoding capability of 4K60fps content at 450MHz in HEVC/H.265, AVC/H.264, VP9, AVS2, and AV1 standards. In order to support 8K60fps, 900MHz clock and multiple cores are required and may achieve up to 8K resolution. In ddition, WAVE517 is highly optimized for memory bandwidth loading and power management. A specialized hardware block CFrame™ is integrated into WAVE517 to compress reconstructed frames for future reference. As a result, WAVE517 can significantly reduce bus bandwidth by 50% on average while accessing frame data effectively in the external memory.
