Description

Reon™ VX is a highly integrated SOC that is targeted for high-volume display applications.
Reon VX is an advanced image enchancer that delivers the IDT Hollywood Quality Video™ (HQV™) video
processing experience to consumers at a cost effective price point. It is also the first in its class to include
codec noise reduction and color spectrum controls as standard on-chip features.
Reon VX features true four field motion adaptive de-interlacing—advanced multi-directional diagonal
filtering to provide best-in-class de-interlacing of standard definition (SD) and high-definition
(HD) signals.
The advanced scaling capability of the eWARP™ VX Engine enables the delivery of superior quality,
artifact free video for the highest fidelity consumer experience in home entertainment products, including
plasma TV, LCD TV, rear projection TV (RPTV), home theater projectors, AV receivers and DVD players.
Reon VX has a fully independent secondary video path that enables dual video or graphics inputs to be
independently processed and positioned anywhere on the display in picture in picture (PIP), picture and
picture (PAP) and picture outside picture (POP) formats. It also contains a powerful on screen display
(OSD) engine with pixel or area based transparency mapping.
An embedded 179 MHz RISC CPU provides the central control for the chip and manages many I/O
interfaces, including a USB on the go (OTG) controller. These features simplify system design and enable
competitive mainstream products with no compromise on feature sets.
HQV Image Processing
1080i-to-1080p de-interlacing: Rather than discarding half the resolution of high-definition images,
as today’s image processors typically do, HQV technology uses the full four field processing window for
HD video de-interlacing and cadence detection, thus preserving the rich details in HD imagery.
SD/HD multi-directional diagonal filter (MDDF): A true 10-bit diagonal interpolator that removes
any “jaggies” and/or stair-stepping artifacts from de-interlaced video sources, without blurring the image.
Automatic film mode cadence processing: A quantum improvement in the automatic handling of
film and video sources such as 3:2 and 2:2 sequences common to broadcast and DVD. HQV cadence
processing ensures that users will be viewing film and video sources in the original format without loss
of resolution. HQV technology also provides the 3:2 insertion that is needed for Blu-ray disc playback.
Automatic per-pixel video/film detection: Rather than making frame level decisions for video versus
film processing, which often causes artifacts in video titles over film backgrounds, HQV makes pixel-level
decisions, processing film pixels as film and video pixels as video.
