FRAMOS, global experts in embedded vision technology, has launched the SLVS-EC RX IP Core, designed to streamline the integration of high-resolution image sensors into camera and embedded systems. This solution enables developers to accelerate time-to-market and improve system performance, particularly in applications requiring high-speed, high-quality imaging.
Accelerating Vision System Development
The FRAMOS SLVS-EC RX IP Core supports Sony’s SLVS-EC v3 interface, providing high-bandwidth data transmission for imaging systems. Available for AMD-Xilinx platforms, including UltraScale+ and Kintex series, the IP Core simplifies implementation while enabling data rates of up to 10 Gbit/s per lane across eight lanes. This makes it ideal for applications such as medical imaging, sports broadcasting, and industrial automation.
A comprehensive evaluation kit complements the IP Core, including a sensor module and tools for testing and deployment. Giuseppe Contini, Technical Imaging Expert at FRAMOS, explained: “Our IP Core makes the future tangible here through its ease of use, allowing vision system developers to focus on what is important: the application.”
