Tone Mapping Operator FPGA IP

Altera

The Altera Tone Mapping Operator FPGA IP core enables real-time conversion of high dynamic range (HDR) video to standard dynamic range (SDR), preserving visual detail and contrast for display compatibility. Designed for applications like broadcast, automotive, and surveillance, it performs tone mapping in hardware to reduce latency and offload processing from general-purpose processors. Optimized for Altera FPGA platforms, the core integrates easily into image processing pipelines and supports configurable parameters for flexible deployment in embedded and edge systems.

Key Features

  • Multi-tile local image statistics analysis
  • Support for 8, 10 and 12 bit per color component
  • Support up to 4 pixels in parallel (PIP) per clock processing
  • Low subframe latency (~ 100 clock cycles)
  • Support resolutions up to 4K at 60 FPS on Cyclone® 10 FPGAs, Arria® 10 FPGAs, Stratix® 10 FPGAs, and Agilex® 5 FPGA E-Series
  • Support resolutions up to 8K at 60 FPS on Agilex® 7 FPGAs and on Agilex® 5 FPGA D-Series
  • AXI4-Stream video I/O interface
  • AXI4-Stream ↔ Avalon® streaming interface protocol converters
  • Avalon® memory-mapped CPU control and memory interfaces
  • Low resource utilization for edge applications
