“The new BlueRiver AVP chipset enables a new generation of lower cost peripherals and integration directly into end-products, which should drive significant growth of SDVoE-enabled products,” said Don Shaver, Vice President of Video Products for Semtech’s Signal Integrity Products Group.
The BlueRiver AV Processor (AVP) chipset includes three devices: the entry level for AV over IP and matrix switch replacement, the which adds a video processing engine and fiber connectivity, and the with all the features of the AVP2000 plus bidirectional HDMI capability. New to the BlueRiver product family, the AVP2000T provides bidirectional HDMI connectivity in a single chip, enabling AV traffic to be sent simultaneously in both directions over a single optical fiber or copper category cable.
The chipset lowers system cost by reducing the number of devices required, and removing the need to use costly FPGA devices. In addition, the chipset consumes only 2.6W with all features operational, whereas FPGA-based solutions are typically around two to three times higher, which is a significant power savings. Additionally, all AVP products have a fully integrated USB-HID interface, uniquely designed for KVM applications.
Semtech will be providing detailed specifications, pricing and availability information at Inter BEE 2019, from November 13 to 15 in Japan. To request a meeting, .
