i-Chips IP00C341

4K Quad Input De-interlacer/Scaler/Warping LSI

The IP00C341 is a powerful and versatile image processing LSI that offers a range of advanced features. This multi-functional video processing chip includes a de-interlacer, scaler, warping, and edge-blending circuitry. It supports dual input images up to 4K60Hz and provides independent enlargement, shrinking, and de-interlacing capabilities with Picture-in-Picture (PiP) and Picture-out-Picture (PoP) output images.

 

One of its notable features is the embedded warp table generator, which enables real-time image processing for horizontal and vertical keystone correction as well as pin-cushion correction. This ensures that the projected or displayed image maintains its proper shape and alignment.

The i-Chips IP00C341 integrates high-performance functions like PQ and HLG HDR systems (10-bit) and 3DLUT for color management. This enables accurate and vibrant color reproduction, enhancing the visual quality of the output.

 

With its extensive capabilities, the IP00C341 is an excellent choice for a wide range of high-performance video applications. It finds applications in projectors, laser TVs, monitors, and other devices where superior image processing is required. Its advanced features make it a valuable video processing chip, delivering impressive visuals in various professional settings.
