The advancement in HDMI technology enables devices created by the San Jose firm to transmit, receive and process up to 8K ultra-high-definition video in audio visual (AV) equipment, including cameras, streaming media players, professional monitors, LED walls, projectors, and keyboard video and mouse (KVM) hardware.
According to the processing technology developer, customers are increasingly adopting machine learning to monetise and improve workflows in diverse applications such as broadcast, pro-AV, automotive, and surveillance.
Xilink’s HDMI 2.1 data rates are provided by high-speed input/output transceivers. Combined with 8K interfaces, it is now possible to replace application-specific standard products supporting processing, compression, analytics, and decision-making with a single Xilinx device.
Today’s professional AV and broadcast markets continue to demand higher resolution”
Commenting on the new product, Ramesh Iyer, director of marketing at Xilinx, says: “Today’s professional AV and broadcast markets continue to demand higher resolution, higher frame rates and high dynamic range, to deliver more immersive viewing experiences.
“Our customers can now implement the complete HDMI 2.1 interface on-chip, creating highly-integrated designs that can natively handle 8K processing. And customers can combine this functionality with 8K lightweight mezzanine codecs for 8K over IP streaming, reducing real-estate, power consumption, and bill of materials costs.”
