The logiCVC-ML – Compact Multilayer Video Controller is a graphics controller optimized for Xilinx FPGAs and Zynq-7000 EPP. It controls LCD TFT flat panel displays and, by means of external video converters, S-Video, Composite Video devices and CRT displays.
The core supports up to 5 graphic layers that have programmable size, position, alpha blending mode, and pixel color-depth. Multilayer support provides on screen display functions: alpha blending, color keyed transparency among layers, hardware cursors and fast scrolling and pan functions. All these features are supported in hardware and therefore require only low CPU processing power. The logiCVC-ML supports a wide range of display resolutions from 64x1 up to 2048x2048 pixels. Support for higher resolution displays is available on request.
The core is fully embedded into Xilinx Platform Studio and EDK tools. Xylon provides extensive software support (drivers) for popular operating systems, such as Linux and Microsoft Windows Embedded Compact.
Key Features
- 1. Supports LCD TFT and CRT displays
- 2. Up to 2048x2048 display resolutions (higher on request)
- 3. Supports up to 5 layers
- 4. Configurable layer's size, position and offset
- 5. Pixel, Layer, or Color Lookup Table (CLUT) alpha blending
- 6. Supported output formats: Parallel RGB, PAL/NTSC, LVDS, Camera link, DVI
- 7. Configurable AMBA AXI4, CoreConnect PLB or Xylon XMB memory interface
- 8. Software drivers for the most popular operating systems (OS)
