HD Quality Solutions
Today’s broadcast systems call for creativity in the face of multiple audio/video formats, compression standards and distribution methods, competitive cost pressures, and equipment interoperability requirements. Altera and their partners offer solutions and development kits optimized for our latest programmable solutions, fully supported by our Quartus® II design software to fill key functions in the broadcast chain from content creation through distribution to support Altera’s high-definition quality initiative (HDQI). Altera® programmable solutions support applications throughout the broadcast chain, enabling you to deliver high-quality content.
Using intellectual property (IP) cores, reference designs, and development kits from Altera and its partners, you can accelerate the design of HD-quality broadcast systems. Easy-to-use HDQI solutions free up valuable resources from standard tasks while allowing you to focus on value-add competencies and get your broadcast designs out the door faster and at lower cost. Table 1 lists HD-quality solutions from Altera and their partners.
