AverLogic Introduces Full HD Video FIFO, the Fastest and Highest Density in the World

AverLogic's Full HD FIFO (First-In-First-Out) Memory AL460A-PBF is ready to sample. The AL460A-PBF consists of 128Mbit of memory density, and is configured as 8,192K x 16 bits FIFO, the optimized access scheme offers maximum R/W operating speed up to 150 MHz. The FIFO offers a simple and easy-to-use user interface supporting usage in a wide range of applications, such as multimedia systems, video capture systems, and various video data buffering applications.

  ◦ Supports video NTSC, PAL and HDTV up to 1080p resolutions
  ◦ Independent 16-bit read/write data bus operations (different I/O data rates acceptable)
  ◦ High speed synchronous sequential access in maximum speed 150Mhz
  ◦ Input/Output enable control
  ◦ Supports double buffer mode (Upper and Lower frame access with 4M x16-bit in each frame) via frame-select pins
  ◦ Polarity Selectable
  ◦ 2.5V and 3.3V power supply
  ◦ Standard LQFP-128 package

What are the advantages of using AL460A-PBF FIFO?

AverLogic's Full-HD (High-Definition) FIFO, AL460A-PBF, can capture up-to three full 1080p frames running at 150mhz high speed clock rate in 16 bits width of data bus. The AL460A-PBF can be applied to a wide range of video (SD/HD) and graphics applications. Designers can benefit from using the AL460A-PBF FIFO with its simple bus interface to reduce implementation and debugging efforts, improving time-to-market, and reducing engineering costs. Other advantage of using FIFOs are

  ◦ Limited glue logic required
  ◦ Reduces timing constraints in the system
  ◦ Easy expansion to accommodate varying word widths (memory depth cascading)
  ◦ Easy-to-use bus interface and bus expansion to accommodate varying bus interfaces (bus width cascading)
