Composite Video Revisited: AVD-2000

While composite video formats such as PAL and NTSC are no longer at the forefront of new installations, they remain an integral part of countless legacy systems worldwide, from industrial monitoring setups to security camera networks and specialized broadcast applications. 

For projects that still rely on these trusted video sources, the need for a reliable conversion solution has never been more important. That’s where the Digital View AVD-2000 comes in.

Seamless PAL/NTSC to HDMI Conversion

The AVD-2000 is designed specifically to convert interlaced PAL/NTSC video into a progressive format HDMI output, delivering sharp, stable visuals for modern LCD displays. Its built-in deinterlace function ensures smooth playback, breathing new life into older video sources without the artifacts and flicker often associated with outdated equipment.

Flexible, Multi-Channel Input

Supporting up to four independent PAL/NTSC composite video inputs, with fast source switching, the AVD-2000 makes it simple to manage multiple feeds from cameras or other analog devices. Source selection can be done via on-board controls, RS-232 commands, or through integration with Digital View LCD controller boards using the I²C interface. This flexibility makes it ideal for environments where quick switching between feeds is essential.

Designed for Integration

The AVD-2000 pairs effortlessly with all Digital View LCD controller boards with HDMI input, ensuring a streamlined connection between your analog sources and high-quality LCD panels. Its compact PCB footprint (102mm x 76mm) and well-planned connector layout make it easy to integrate into custom enclosures or retrofit projects.

Built for Reliability

With robust build quality and a three-year warranty, the AVD-2000 is engineered for mission-critical applications where reliability is paramount. From security control rooms to transportation hubs, the board delivers dependable performance day in and day out.

Perfect for Legacy Installations

Whether you’re upgrading a control center, maintaining critical video monitoring systems, or simply need to extend the life of valuable legacy equipment, the AVD-2000 ensures that your analog video sources can keep pace with today’s display technology. It’s a cost-effective way to modernize without replacing your entire video infrastructure.

In short: The AVD-2000 is proof that even as technology evolves, there’s still a place for well-designed solutions that bridge the old and the new — keeping legacy systems functional, relevant, and reliable.
