The JPEG-LS Encoder by Parretto B.V. is a lossless image compression solution for FPGA applications, renowned for its adherence to the JPEG-LS standard. This encoder excels in lossless scenarios, outperforming the JPEG-2000 in resource efficiency while requiring neither external memory nor complicated setup, resulting in lower latency.
This IP-core is perfect for applications where high-quality, lossless image compression is essential, catering to image depths from 8 to 16 bits. It processes one pixel per clock cycle, ensuring smooth and efficient compression workflows. With configurable output data width and the ability to manage ultra-high-definition image sizes, it's a versatile choice for a variety of imaging needs.
Typically used in applications requiring pristine image fidelity, the JPEG-LS Encoder supports pixel and data FIFO interfaces alongside Avalon streaming for data handling flexibility. Developers can trust its performance for critical tasks where low-latency and high-quality compression are paramount, making it a foundational tool in modern image processing systems.
