7.1 Audio / Video Encoder
The Encoder board consists of the following main functions:
•
SDI to Digital de-serializer. Converts the SMPTE-259M-C serial digital video input
to an 8 bit parallel digital video bus.
•
Analog to Digital Video Converter, 10 bit over sampling ADC
Takes either composite video (75
Ω
, 1v p-p) (CVBS); YC or YUV inputs in either
PAL / NTSC format and converts to an 8 bit parallel digital video bus.
•
FPGA selects the required 8 bit parallel digital video bus from either the SDI or
analog input, packets this data for input to the MPEG2 encoder. A relay is used to
route the input from the BNC (either SDI or CVBS) to either the SDI de-serializer or
the PAL/NTSC decoder.
