This chip is designed to perform RGB to YUV conversions for video signals in both directions. Therefore it uses a three dimensional linear transformation and can accept data rates of up to 10 Mpixels/s. The coefficients for the transformation can be freely configured, allowing the chip also perform any other linear transformation.
The name Wile E. Coyote comes from the famous cartoon character the poor coyote that tries to catch roadrunner.
