The folks from Digital Blocks specialize in creating silicon-proven semiconductor Intellectually Property (IP) soft cores for system-on-chip (SoC) ASIC, ASSP, & FPGA developers with Embedded Processor and Peripherals, Networking, Display Controller, Display Link Layer, 2D Graphics, and Audio / Video processing requirements.

They've just announced their DB9000AXI-QFHD LCD Controller IP Core. The DB9000AXI-QFHD is a synthesizable Verilog IP Core targeting 3840 x 2160 QFHD LCD panels in QFHD-TV, Signage, Gaming, Broadcasting, Aerospace / Defense, Medical, & Industrial applications.

The DB9000AXI-QFHD LCD Controller IP Core contains the following features for QFHD panels:
  • A Video Acquisition Engine of up to 17 video / graphics pixel processing streams with alpha blending
  • AMBA AXI3 / AXI4 on-chip interconnect for connection to high bandwidth frame buffer memory, with an ARM host processor
  • Output Formatter with the capability to drive the requirements of high-bandwidth QFHD panel interfaces
  • Interface to LVDS, HDMI, DVI, & DisplayPort Transmitters
