Introducing the eVAC2000 – an advanced video annotation controller board

New York, USA and Cambridge, England, January 14, 2012 – Introducing another world first from leading embedded video experts, Advanced Micro Peripherals (AMP), the eVAC2000 is a real time NTSC/PAL video overlay and video annotation controller for the PCI/104 systems.

Advanced features include: a high resolution graphics accelerator, digital NTSC/PAL TV decoder, digital NTSC/PAL TV encoder and video overlay controller, all contained within a single PC104 card.

Accepting up to four composite NTSC or PAL analog video inputs including video cameras, digital video recording equipment or regular TV broadcasts, the eVAC2000 is ideal for a wide range of applications which require titles, dynamic grids or visible watermarking.

The high throughput, low latency eVAC2000 uses a high performance 64bit 2D graphics accelerator combined with an 8Mbytes frame buffer to deliver rapid video graphics processing.

“The eVAC2000 is the latest addition to our portfolio of embedded video solutions that are versatile enough to be brought to market with a minimum of delay and which are applicable for a wide variety of situations,” says Lee Foss, Advanced Micro Peripheral’s Founder and CEO, adding: 

“For example, the eVAC2000 is ideal for multi-media displays, live video annotation or medical and industrial imaging.

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
