SDI

Our SDI video solution is a single, dynamic PolarFire® FPGA IP and reference design that supports 1.5G to 12G SDI and 4K60 resolutions. It has been developed fully in-house for reliable, low-latency video transport and conversion. It gives customers a compact, production-ready building block for professional broadcast and vision applications.

We also offer an SDI-to-HDMI® video conversion solution supporting HDMI 2.0, up to 12G SDI and 4K60 formats, enabling seamless, real-time SDI-to-HDMI translation. This solution is an excellent choice for video pipelines, monitoring setups, demos and other applications that need deterministic, high-quality 4K60 video conversion.
