JPEG-LS Encoder IP

The Lancero JPEG-LS Lossless Image Encoder for FPGAs is an efficient implementation

of the best-in-class lossless image compression standard JPEG-LS

(ISO/IEC 14495-1 and ITU-T Rec. T.87).

​

JPEG-LS performs better than JPEG-2000 in most lossless use cases but with a much lower resource count, no need for external memory. And less than one line of latency.

​

The IP-core includes the following features;

• Leading lossless image compression results for 8 to 16 bits image sample depths.

• Less than one line of encoding latency.

• Low resource count, no external memory needed.

• Pixel and data FIFO input/output or Avalon Streaming interface with back-pressure.

• Accepts and encodes one pixel per clock cycle.

• Configurable output data word width.

• Configurable image sizes up to ultra high definition and beyond.
