Embodiment Construction

[0022] An example of the present invention is as follows:

[0023] On the self-developed SOPC signal processing platform, Gaussian smoothing and filtering operations are performed on multi-frame images. The platform chooses the FPGA of XC5VFX20T-FF323 model of Xilinx Company, and uses the development software provided by the company to design an embedded platform inside the FPGA. In this design, Microblaze is selected as the CPU of the embedded system, and the clock frequency is 125MHz; the PLB4.6 bus is selected as the system bus, the clock frequency is 125MHz, and the width is 64 bits. The sum of the throughput rates, so that the two are not affected by the transmission rate. Select DDR2_SDRAM_256MB as the off-chip memory of the system, and map to the memory space whose address range is 0x80000000-0x90000000. After the above-mentioned design is completed, the coprocessor is connected to the PLB bus, and the clock selects the bus clock 125MHz. The image data selects 1080P ...

Abstract

The invention discloses an embedded system on programmable chip (SOPC) having an image coprocessor. The system mainly comprises the image coprocessor and an embedded system (including a central processing unit (CPU), a bus, a memory controller, an interrupt controller and the like). The CPU is mainly used for managing system resources and processing complicated transactions, and the image coprocessor is mainly used for carrying out calculation of a plurality of specific image processing algorithms. The system has the advantages that: the self-developed image coprocessor has concurrent processing capacity and pipelining processing capacity; the system can be applied to the plurality of specific image processing algorithms; and calculation efficiency is improved greatly, so that the CPU can get rid of heavy image processing to process some more complicated transactions attentively, so as to improve the processing capacity of a whole SOPC signal processing platform.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an embedded programmable system on chip, in particular to an embedded programmable system on chip with an image coprocessor, which is used in embedded signal processing platforms for image enhancement, edge detection, background prediction, etc. Computation of image processing algorithms. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, more and more products are developing in the direction of miniaturization and low power consumption, hoping to complete as much work as possible in as small a volume as possible. SOPC (System on Programmable Chip, Programmable System on Chip) therefore Has been widely used. SOPC integrates the advantages of embedded systems and FPGA (programmable logic gate array), and at the same time has the ability of hardware programming and software programming, and the design is more free and flexible, and it has quickly become one of the candidates for image signal processing...
