Overview
The Synopsys DesignWare® IEEE 1394 AVLink intellectual property (IP) is a set of highly configurable blocks that implements complete 1394
interface functions tailored to support audio/visual (AV)-oriented IEC 61883 applications. Configured through our RapidScript® utility,
this device can also be optimized to act as a generic 1394 device controller. Therefore, AVLink can be effectively used in a wide range of applications,
such as digital still cameras, video conferencing cameras, printers, scanners, digital audio devices, electronic musical instruments, digital VCRs/VTRs, and storage devices.
