Overview

Implements a Real Time Transport Protocol (RTP) hardware stack that encapsulates JPEG streams to RTP packets compliant with RFC 2435. 

The JPEG2RTP can be directly connected to the output of a JPEG encoder to output RTP packets, which can subsequently be forwarded for UDP/IP or TCP/IP encapsulation. The hardware stack produces complete RTP packets, without the need for any host-processor assistance. Along with CAST’s UDP/IP hardware stack, the JPEG2RTP core is ideal for offloading the demanding task of RTP/UDP/IP encapsulation from a host processor, and enables JPEG video streaming even in processor-less SoC designs. 

The core is easy to integrate in systems with or without a host processor. JPEG stream and RTP packet data are input/output via dedicated streaming-capable AXI4-Stream or Avalon-ST interfaces, enabling direct connection to hardware video encoders and hardware stacks for UDP or TCP. Status and control registers are accessible by AXI4-Lite or Avalon-MM interface. 

The JPEG2RTP core is available in RTL source or as a targeted FPGA netlist. Platforms integrating the core with JPEG encoder, UDP/IP, and eMAC cores, are also available from CAST, and can enable rapid development of video over IP systems.

The JPEG2RTP core is suitable for a wide variety of systems and devices featuring JPEG video streaming over IP networks. A sample block diagram of such systems is provided above.

Enabling AI Vision at the Edge

Computer vision has made tremendous advances in the last several years due to the proliferation of AI technology. The intersection of big data and massive parallel computing changed the way in which machines are programmed to understand unstructured 2D and 3D data, such as video feeds from cameras.

Nextreme Structured ASICs: An alternative for designing cost-optimized ARM926EJ processor-based embedded systems

Traditional IC design options that embedded system designers have had to choose from include fixed hardware devices such as standalone microprocessors, microcontrollers and ASSPs or configurable hardware devices such as FPGAs and cell-based ASICs. In this paper we present a new design option called Nextreme Structured ASICs which provide embedded system designers with a compelling alternative to custom embedded system design.

Generating High Speed CSI2 Video by an FPGA

In this article, we show how fast video streams conforming to MIPI CSI2 rev2.0 over MIPI DPHY rev1.2 can be generated, using VLSI Plus’ SVTPlus-CSI2-F IP core, with simple off-FPGA analog front-end. The high bit rates can be achieved with a relatively slow FPGA clock frequency, trading off FPGA resources for simple timing closure.

Viewpoint: Opportunity to win on different design fronts

Beyond pure process scaling which is necessary to meet today's price, power, and performance goals, chip designers have to grapple with tighter integration and product performance specialities in areas such as integrated power management, image sensing, application-specific data conversion, and enhanced display drivers.
