Accelerating Innovation with Devices, Tools, and IP

IP Selections

Intel offers a wide range of readily available FPGA intellectual property (IP) solutions that will accelerate your video design development. At the same time, simulate some of the most common video applications to serve as a guide for building your solution. Read about our Connectivity, Video & Image Processing, and CODEC solutions to learn more or check our complete IP solutions portfolio.

Download Design and Debug Tools

Intel^® FPGA design tools allow you to design your solution quickly while providing the necessary customization flexibility and debugging capabilities. Integrate different IP blocks using the Intel Quartus^® Prime design software and Platform Designer (formerly Qsys), design embedded applications using the Intel SoC FPGA Embedded Development Suite (SoC EDS) or accelerate your HDL design using the Intel FPGA SDK for OpenCL™. Intel also offers a large variety of on-chip debugging tools and specific video generators and tracer blocks in the Video and Image Processing Suite.

Build and Demo Designs

Demo your video application or reference design with our latest development kits and daughtercards. Read our Documentation page for further information on devices, application notes, user guides, and board recommendations.

FPGA Selections

Intel offers four classes of FPGA products at various levels of core and I/O performance, memory capabilities, and power consumption to meet specific customer needs. High-end Intel Stratix® series capabilites allow the highest performance, the mid-range Intel Arria® series delivers high performance and low power. Cyclone® and MAX® devices provide the lowest cost and power while maintaining a significant level of performance.

Development Kits

FPGA development kits provide a complete, high-quality design environment that simplifies the design process and reduces time to market. Development kits include software, reference designs, cables, and programming hardware.

You can purchase products online from the our eStore, from a distributor or sales representative, or, for partner kits, contact the partner directly. For more kits from us and our partners, go to the main Development Kits page.

OpenCL

OpenCL enables viable software implementations of complex video algorithms, and dramatically lowers the cost of the end product. Examples of broadcast applications include:

Acquisition: Real-time debayering of raw camera data, scaling for multiviewers, etc.
Post-production: Color grading, motion estimation, special effects rendering, etc.
Distribution: 3D/temporal noise reduction, H.264 compression, etc.
Consumption: JPEG2000 decoding for 4K digital cinema playout, block artifact reduction filters, etc.

Furthermore, running OpenCL on the Advanced Systems Development Kit gives you several unique advantages including:

The best performance per watt consumed, so you enjoy OpenCL’s benefits without power and heat issues from graphic processing units (GPUs)
The ability to assimilate, manipulate, and transport multichannel video on a single board
The highest level of integration to achieve maximum channel density for your end product
