Bitmap 2.5D Graphics Accelerator

Overview

The logiBMP is 2.5D graphics accelerator from Xylon logicBRICKS IP library, optimized for Xilinx FPGAs and designed to speed up graphics operations with bitmaps. This IP core significantly speeds up GUI rendering. The logiBMP supports very complex bitmap operations like texture renderings, picture filtering, up and down scaling, and bitmap rotating. The core is fully embedded into Xilinx Platfrom Studio and EDK tools, and its integration with on-chip CoreConnect PLB and OPB busses is very simple. Parametrizable VHDL design allows tuning of slice consumption and features set through an easy-to-use GUI interface. The logiBMP enables perspective correct texture renderings of 2.5D graphics scenes. The IP core can be easily integrated with other logicBRICKS, i.e. logiCVC Compact Multilayered Video Controller and the logiBITBLT 2D graphics accelerator to support smooth graphics transition and animations.
