1.2 PNX15xx/952x Series Features Summary
32-bit, up to 300 MHz 5-issue VLIW CPU with 128 32-bit registers and an
extensive set of video and audio media instructions.
Allows V2F power management to control frequency and power consumption
based on application requirement.
High quality hardware image scaler and advanced de-interlacer, augmented with
media processing software to do motion compensated de-interlacing.
2D Drawing Engine capable of 3 operand BitBlt (all 256 raster operations), line
drawing, and host font expansion.
8- or 10-bit Video capture supporting horizontal downscaling scaling up to 40.5
Mpixel/s or on the y color space conversion.
image scaling
VIP, MBS,
QVCP
VIP can perform horizontal down-scaling during acquisition
MBS can perform up-and down scaling horizontal and vertical in a
single pass, optionally combined with de-interlacing and format
conversions
QVCP can perform panoramic horizontal scaling during output
video format conversions, including
color space conversion
VIP, MBS,
QVCP
MBS can convert any pixel format to any other format
VIP can generate multiple video formats, QVCP can read multiple
video formats
