1 JAZZ-800 Universal Signal Processor
1.1 Introduction
The JAZZ-800 brings legendary Teranex image quality to the Broadcasting world. The JAZZ-800 is packed
with proprietary technology, like PixelMotion™ Deinterlacing and Multi-Directional Diagonal Filtering
(MDDF
TM
) algorithms, drastically reducing jaggies on diagonal lines. The Per-Pixel Temporal Recursive
Noise Reduction algorithm minimizes HD and SD video noise. Teranex HQV Technology yields unsurpassed
image quality for the demanding Broadcaster.
The Dual REALTA™ architecture includes the industry’s first fully software programmable video array
processor capable of performing over 1 trillion operations per second per chip. In addition it performs end-to-
end true 10-bit image processing. The powerful Teranex Video Processor (TVP) core, built into the Realta,
ensures flexibility and future proofing by enabling subsequent software improvements without making
hardware obsolete. The Dual-Realta Module supports an I/O data path that is 32-bit and is assignable as 30-
bit YCrCb or RGB.
This flexible frame synchronizer is able to handle just about any signal at its inputs and outputs in either HD
or SD formats. The JAZZ-800 uses two Silicon Optix Realta image processing engines, reducing overall size
while maximizing image processing capability. The result? The best possible picture from the most flexible,
powerful, and user-friendly frame synchronizer available today, all in a space-saving 1RU design.
