The JPEG2K-E core from Alma Technologies is a still image and video encoder that implements Part 1 of the JPEG 2000 standard. It offers up to 16-bit per component Numerically Lossless or Lossy compression, including advanced - high-quality and extremely accurate - rate control functionality. The JPEG2K-E can also optionally include support for single-component Multiple Quality Layers encoding in LRCP progression order. It is available for Altera FPGA and SoC based designs.
The JPEG 2000 compression standard offers an advanced quality and feature set, lending itself to a wide range of uses from digital cameras through to space imaging and other key sectors. Full compliance to the ISO/IEC 15444-1 JPEG 2000 standard makes the JPEG2K-E core ideal for interoperable systems and devices.
