Zipcores ZIP-FMC-SDI Mezzanine Card

Zipcores ZIP-FMC-SDI Rev. A Mezzanine Card is a dual-channel SDI video signal receiver with additional loop-through outputs and uses a simple LVDS interface. The SDI inputs are completely independent and are capable of deserializing all standard SMPTE serial video formats from 125Mbps up to 2.97Gbps. This card conforms to the ANSI/VITA 57.1 FMC™ mezzanine standard, ensuring connection to a wide range of base-boards and FMC-compliant systems. The simple LVDS interface makes this card suitable for a wide range of FPGA and SoC devices that don’t feature high-speed serial transceivers. Zipcores ZIP-FMC-SDI Mezzanine Card is suitable for simple video processing and for switching and pass-through applications without needing a video frame buffer or external synchronization circuitry.
