System-On-Chip (SOC) Technologies is a Waterloo based
technology company, specializing in
MPEG-2 and H.264 video codecs (QVGA, SD, 720i/p, 1080i/p, 2k and 4k resolutions). SOC's MPEG codecs are implemented using its proprietary technology of single-clock driven, all-hardware architecture (without processors and embedded software), which has a small silicon footprint, low power consumption, high speed, and low latency.
The SOC MPEG video/audio codecs are in the form of IP cores
or FPGA based discrete modules (similar to an ASIC). SOC customizes the designs to suit
the needs of its customers.
SOC also manufactures FPGA prototyping
boards and provides IP cores other than video/audio codes.
On top of its innovative products, SOC also provides high quality
design, implementation, prototyping, and product development services.
With its world class expertise in system-on-chip implementation (FPGA,
ASIC, and embedded systems) combined with its circuit board design and
PBC layout capacities, SOC provides its customers with low cost and fast
turnaround services for partial or complete product design and
development.
