Products Featured TW2815/TW2816 4-in-1 NTSC/PAL
Video Decoder with Audio ADC & Mux
Includes 4 high quality NTSC/PAL video decoders that
convert analog composite video signal to digital component
YCbCr data. It contains 4 10-bit ADC, proprietary
clamp, gain controllers and utilizes a 4H comb filter
for separating luminance & chrominance to reduce cross
noise artifacts. The TW2815 also includes an audio
CODEC which has four audio Analog-to-Digital converters
and one Digital-to-Analog converter.
TW2835/TW2836 4-Channel Video/Audio Controller
The TW2835 has four high quality NTSC/PAL video decoders,
dual color display controllers and dual video encoders.
The TW2835 contains four built-in analog anti-aliasing
filters, four 10bit Analog-to-Digital converters,
and proprietary digital gain/clamp controller, high
quality Y/C separator to reduce cross-noise and high
performance free scaler.
TW2700 4 Channel MJPEG CODEC with Integrated Mux
A real time 4 channel video compression controller
that can compress and decompress 4 full size video
data streams simultaneously. It contains an internal
RISC processor that can be used for audio compression,
and IP streaming. Together with the TW2815 4 channel
video decoders and audio codecs, the TW2700 is a complete
end-to-end MJPEG DVR solution that can scale from
4 channels up to 16 channels.
