IP Products

Hardent’s IP portfolio offers customers ready-made solutions to accelerate product development and meet demanding time-to-market schedules. Developed by our team of experienced FPGA and ASIC designers, our IP products have undergone extensive verification and offer proven interoperability and compatibility.

VESA Display Stream Compression (DSC)

The VESA Display Stream Compression standard enables electronics manufacturers to develop compelling ultra high-definition displays while reducing video transport bandwidth, power consumption, and overall system costs.

As a member of the DSC Task Group, we have played an active role in the development of the DSC standard, and our unique position has enabled us to develop IP cores with a true understanding of standard compliance design considerations.

Our DSC IP products have been adopted across a range of industries and offer a quick, low-risk solution for implementing the DSC standard. Read about Silicon Works’ adoption of Hardent’s VESA DSC decoder IP.

VESA DSC 1.1 IP Products

Target applications include mobiles, tablets, AR / VR products, in-car video applications, and video transmission.

 

VESA DSC 1.2a IP Products

Target applications include 4K/8K/UHD TVs, digital TV products (STBs, DVRs, etc.), AR/VR products, DisplayPort 1.4 products, and USB Type-C products.

DisplayPort 1.4 Forward Error Correction

DisplayPort™ 1.4 takes advantage of VESA DSC 1.2 to support higher resolution displays. DisplayPort 1.4 also specifies Forward Error Correction (FEC) which, when combined with DSC 1.2 transport, improves the resiliency to link errors when transporting compressed video to external displays. Our DisplayPort FEC IP cores implement Reed-Solomon FEC and symbol interleaving as specified by the VESA DisplayPort 1.4 standard.

DisplayPort 1.4 FEC IP Products

Target applications include UHD monitors and TVs, DisplayPort 1.4 products, USB Type-C products, and GPUs.

A Quick Guide to VESA Display Stream Compression

VESA Display Stream Compression (DSC) is a new standard that enables visually lossless compression for ultra-high definition display applications. This quick guide takes a look at the background to VESA DSC and how this new standard enables electronics manufacturers to develop next-generation devices. What is VESA DSC? VESA Display Stream Compression is a new standard released in July 2014 by The Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). VESA DSC v1.1 enables visually lossless compression between the application processor and the display sub-system inside UHD (ultra-high-definition) devices such as mobiles, tablets, and televisions. Visually lossless means that there is no perceivable difference in the quality of…
