AJA Corvid 22 PCIe 4x Card

AJA Corvid 22 Overview

The Corvid 22 PCIe 4x Card from AJA is used to transfer 8-/10-bit YCbCr and RGB frame buffer formats with two independent channels for input and output, and supports digital 3G, HD, SD-SDI, and all SD/2Kx1080 input/output formats. It uses separate LTC, metadata, and RS-422 for each channel for capturing or playback of digital uncompressed audio and video, and is compatible with all Windows XP or higher and 32-/64-bit Linux operating systems via SDK (software development kit) environments. It also offers true broadcast-level performance.

Key Features:

• Two independent channels for input and output
• Supports digital 3G, HD, SD-SDI, and all SD/2Kx1080 input/output formats
• Separate LTC, metadata, and RS-422 for each channel
• Compatible with Windows XP or higher and 32-/64-bit Linux
• True broadcast-level performance

The Corvid 22 PCIe 4x card allows the output of two simultaneous video/key pairs over 3G using two mixer/keyer widgets and supports up to two simultaneous downstream keyers. It also offers support for analog color black or HD tri-level synchronization and includes two independent 16-channel 48 kHz SDI embedded audio input/output engines. The PCI express card uses the API (application programming interface), which reduces the time required to develop when working on multiple platforms or multiple AJA cards. 1.0/2.3-to-BNC pigtail adapters and a breakout cable that supports LTC and RS-422 input/output are available separately.
