Description
Zoran's PEP-1 Picture Enhancement Processor is a silicon-efficient
Intellectual Property Core for video IC designs. By providing sharper,
contrast-enhanced video, PEP-1 achieves significant quality improve-
ment. PEP-1 is based on Zoran's extensive experience delivering high
quality, high volume video ICs to major consumer products manufac-
turers worldwide. Using a robust contrast enhancement algorithm
(dynamic range enhancement), PEP-1 greatly reduces the risk and
time involved when integrating picture enhancement functions into an
IC. As a result, expensive, discrete components can be eliminated
from system designs. When used in conjunction with Zoran's other IP
Core products, a silicon and memory efficient implementation can be
achieved.
VIP-II Demonstration System
Zoran offers the VIP-II FPGA demonstration system for evaluation of
the PEP-1 Picture Enhancement Processor. The VIP-II allows cus-
tomers to input composite video, s-video, or component video to test
the PEP-1's performance.
