VIDEO INPUT FORMATS
The ADV212 supports a wide variety of formats for uncom-
pressed video and still image data. The actual interface and bus
modes selected for transferring uncompressed data dictates the
allowed size of the input data and the number of samples
transferred with each access.
The host interface can support 8-/10-/12-/14-/16-bit data
formats. The video interface can support video data or still
image data input/output. Supported formats are 8-/10-/12-bit
YCbCr formats or single component format. All formats can
support less precision than provided by specifying the actual
data width/precision in the PMODE register.
The maximum allowable data input rate is limited by using
irreversible or reversible compression modes and the data width
(or precision) of the input samples. See Tabl e 22 and Table 24 to
determine the maximum data input rate.

Input rate limits for HDATA may be less for certain applications depending on input picture size and content, host interface settings, and DMA transfer settings.
2
Minimum guaranteed sustained output rate or minimum sustainable compression rate (input rate/minimum peak output rate).
3
Maximum peak output rate; an output rate above this value is not possible.
