Socionext, a manufacturer of imaging and video processing technologies, will show the company’s new single-chip HEVC Video encoder-decoder at InfoComm 2017 in Orlando, June 14-16.
The SC2M50 features high-efficiency AV processing capabilities and encoder-decoder built for proAV equipment and system suppliers.
The SC2M50, also known as “M50”, comes in a 25mm x 25mm package and is designed for audio and video transmitting applications requiring encoding and decoding of 4K 60P HEVC video in real time with minimal power.
The chipset operates at 3.5W, the reduced power and size are needed for video equipment and portable devices such as video transmitters for professional applications.
The M50 enables the transmission of 4K, HD video through wireless or network distribution, while using about half the bandwidth required by conventional H.264 techniques. It is also compatible with YUV 4:2:2 10bit encoding, which is essential for professional use.
At this year’s InfoComm, Socionext will also feature an integrated M50 box with system level low latency and HDMI I/F for pro AV transfer applications.
