i-Chips IP00C335

4K Multi-Input / Multi-Output De-Interlacer and Scaler LSI with Embedded Memory

A high-performance video processing solution designed for multi-stream 4K pipelines, enabling scaling, de-interlacing, overlay, and advanced display control in a single chip.

 

The IP00C335 from i-Chips is a multi-functional image processing LSI that integrates scaling, de-interlacing, and multi-window video processing with embedded frame memory. It is designed to process up to four independent 4K60 video streams in real time, enabling compact system architectures for advanced display, broadcast, and ProAV applications.

 

i-Chips IP00C335

Overview

 

The i-Chips IP00C335 is a high-performance 4K video processing LSI designed for systems that require multi-input handling, flexible display composition, and real-time image processing.

 

By integrating scaling, de-interlacing, overlay, and memory into a single device, the IP00C335 enables designers to build compact and efficient video processing architectures. The device can process up to four 4K60 inputs simultaneously and generate dual 4K outputs, making it ideal for applications such as video walls, broadcast multi-viewers, and advanced display systems.

 

Its internal architecture includes multiple independent scaler and de-interlacer engines, enabling simultaneous processing of multiple video streams with low latency and high image quality.
