GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADV611/ADV612 are low cost, single chip, dedicated func-
tion, all-digital-CMOS-VLSI devices capable of supporting
visually loss-less to 7500:1 real-time compression and decom-
pression of CCIR-601 digital video at very high image quality
levels. The chips integrate glueless video and host interfaces
with on-chip SRAM to permit low part count, system level
implementations suitable for a broad range of applications.
The ADV611/ADV612 are 100% bitstream compatible with
the ADV601. The ADV611/ADV612 comes in a 120-lead
LQFP package.
The ADV611/ADV612 are video encoders/decoders optimized
for closed circuit TV (CCTV) applications. With the ADV611/
ADV612, you can define a portion of each video field to be at a
higher quality level relative to the rest of the field. This “quality
box” feature significantly increases compression of less impor-
tant background details, while retaining the image’s overall
context. Additionally, the unique subband coding architecture
of the ADV611/ADV612 offer many application-specific
advantages. A review of the General Theory of Operation and
Applying the ADV611/ADV612 sections will help you get the
most use out of the ADV611/ADV612 in any given application.
The ADV611/ADV612 accept component digital video through
the Video Interface and outputs a compressed bitstream though the
Host Interface in Encode Mode. While in Decode Mode, the
ADV611/ADV612 accept compressed bitstream through the Host
Interface and outputs component digital video through the Video
Interface. The host accesses all of the ADV611/ADV612’s control
and status registers using the Host Interface. Figure 2 summarizes
the basic function of the part.
