=== Hardware Specifications ===
The following section provides information about FM-VC main components and features.
'''Intersil TW6869 Video Decoder'''
The TW6869 is a highly integrated solution that supports multi-channel video and audio capture via PCI Express x1 interface for PC DVR system and video analytic application. It contains high quality eight channel NTSC/PAL/SECAM video decoders that convert analog composite video signal to digital component YCbCr data. Adaptive 4H comb filter for separating luminance and chrominance to reduce cross noise artifacts.<br>
TW6869 contains a high performance proprietary DMA controller that fully optimizes the utilization of PCI Express x1 bandwidth and enables it to transfer video and audio data at a high throughput rate that closely approaches the theoretical limit of PCI Express x1 interface. TW6869 is able to simultaneously decode and transfer 8 real time video streams, or up to 16 channel non-real time video streams in FM-VC application, plus 8 real time audio channel.
'''Video Decoder Features'''
* Accepts all NTSC(M/N/4.43) / PAL(B/D/G/H/I/K/L/M/N/60) standards with auto detection
* Integrated eight video analog anti-alias filters and 10-bit CMOS ADCs
* Color Transient Improvement, White peak AGC control
* Programmable hue, saturation, contrast, brightness and sharpness
* High quality proprietary fast video locking system for non-real-time application
* High performance adaptive 4H comb filters for all NTSC and PAL standards
'''Audio Codec Features'''
* Integrated eight audio ADCs
* 8/16 bit audio word length
* Sample audio with 8/16/32/44.1/48kHz
'''DMA Controller'''
* Highly-efficient DMA design can support up to 8 real time D1 video and 8 real time audio
Channels, or up to 32 non-real- time video with optimization of full PCIe x1 bandwidth
* Multiple digital video format outputs: UYVY/Y422, YUYV/YUY2, IYU1/Y411, Y41P, YUV420, RGB555 and RGB565
* Integrated internal video and audio generator simplifies system test and development
* Built-in motion detection engine for each video channel
'''Host Interface'''
* PCI Express Base Specification 1.1 and 2.0 Compliant
'''SMSC SIO1007 Super-IO Controller'''
The SMSC SIO1007 is PC 99 and ACPI 1.0 compliant Super I/O Controller. The SIO1007 implements the LPC interface with the LPC PortSwitch interface. The LPC PortSwitch interface is a hot switchable external docking LPC interface. It also features a full 16bit internally decoded address bus, a Serial IRQ interface with PCI clock support, relocatable configuration ports and three DMA channel options. The part also includes 16 GPIO pins.
The SIO1007 incorporates one complete 8-pin UART. In addition SIO1007 provides a second UART to support a serial Infrared interface that complies with IrDA v1.2 (Fast IR) and several other popular IR formats.
'''Main Features'''
* One full function Serial port
* High Speed UART with Send/Receive 16-Byte FIFOs
* Support 230k and 460k Baud rates
* Programmable baud rate generator
* Modem control circuit
