MPEG-4 aacPlus v2 Encoder
for Xtensa HiFi 2 Audio Engine

Tensilica’s MPEG-4 aacPlus v2 Encoder Application Package

Test it out! See how good our MP3 Encoder is by downloading free music.

The MPEG-4 aacPlusTM v2 Encoder package for the Xtensa HiFi 2 Audio Engine implements 24-bit MPEG-4 aacPlus encoding compliant with ISO/IEC 14496-3 and the 3GPP specification for Enhanced aacPlus, supporting AAC, Spectral Band Replications (SBRTM) and Parametric Stereo (PS). The encoder is a fixed-point implementation written in C and available in either object or source code. Included documentation describes how to incorporate the decoder into a system. Using this package, system developers can integrate an MPEG-4 aacPlus v2 encoder into an SOC without the need for additional optimizations or software development. The same Xtensa HiFi 2 Audio Engine is used for other Tensilica audio codecs, enabling the development of highly optimized multi-standard audio SOC designs.

Feature Summary

  • Support for Parametric Stereo and Spectral Band Replication
  • Compliant with ISO/IEC 14496-3 and the 3GPP specifications for Enhanced aacPlus
