Xilinx's FMC platform utilizes MACOM's 12G-SDI Chipset to enable
4k60p video on a single channel, quadrupling video throughput and
processing
LOWELL, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. (MACOM), a leading supplier of
semiconductor solutions for broadcast video infrastructure, announced
today that Inrevium's Xilinx-targeted FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) utilizes
MACOM's 12G-SDI Chipset to enable 4k60p video. Based on a collaboration
with Fidus Systems and Inrevium, the solution supports the proposed
12G-SDI standard and quadruples the video throughput and processing that
can be achieved on a single card.
"12G-SDI is the next node on the evolution of the SDI standard. By
entering into collaboration, Xilinx can now offer customers the ability
to process 4k60p images with a single link connection, dramatically
increasing the amount of video processing that can be achieved on a
single card," said Gary Shah, VP of Marketing, High Performance Analog,
MACOM. "We are excited to deliver solutions that enable the broadcast
industry to migrate to higher resolutions."
"Our customers are developing 4k60p systems using Xilinx All
Programmable FPGA and SoC devices. MACOM's 12G-SDI components along with
the Fidus/Inrevium 12G-SDI FMC provide a development platform that
enables customers to process their video content through a single link,"
said Aaron Behman, Segment Lead for the Broadcast Business at Xilinx.
MACOM's family of 12G-SDI products are currently shipping in volume.
These MACOM products, as well as the new 12G-SDI FMC card will be shown
at IBC 2014 in booth 8.C01 (Hall 8) of the RAI convention center in
Amsterdam.
