Baseline JPEG Image & Video Decoder

The Alma Technologies JPEG-D core is a standalone and high-performance Baseline JPEG decoder for still image and video compression applications. Compliance with the Baseline Sequential DCT mode of the ISO/IEC 10918-1 JPEG standard makes the JPEG-D core ideal for interoperable systems and devices.

In addition to decoding standard Baseline JPEG streams, the core is also capable of decompressing the video payload of many (de facto) standard motion JPEG container formats.

The core is designed with simple, fully controllable and FIFO-like, streaming input and output interfaces. Being carefully designed, rigorously verified and silicon-proven, the JPEG-D is a reliable and easy-to-use and integrate IP.
