OVERVIEW

The ML86410 is an LSI that encodes YUV (YCbCr) format digital video signals into MPEG-4-ASP format ones in real time.
The LSI achieves high picture quality by a unique high-speed high-quality motion search method and a unique coding rate control method. For video input, the LSI supports progressive video output from camera modules and interlaced video output from NTSC/PAL digital video decoders.

Video interface:

− QVGA (320 × 240 pixels) / VGA (640 × 480 pixels) :
YCbCr (8-bit (YCbCr) (4:2:2) ) + sync, 27 MHz
YUV (8-bit (YUV)(4:2:2)) + sync, 27 MHz
− NTSC (720 × 480 pixels) ) / PAL (720 × 576 pixels) : ITU-R BT.656, 27 MHz
Note:
Although signals are input in 4:2:2 format, they are converted to
4:2:0 format before encoding processing.
− Can choose the order in which fields are loaded during interlacing (Top first/Bottom first)
− Can choose between the positive polarity and the negative polarity of CLKCAM when loading YUVDATA,
VSYNC, or HSYNC
− Clipping can be specified as no clipping or clipping in the range of 16≤Y,U,V≤240
− For the interface, a 3.3 V I/O interface is used.
