The traditional method for handling video data uses a USB interface for data and DisplayPort or HDMI for video output. With the introduction of the Thunderbolt interface, a system interface can be simplified with one connector for both data and video.
Many video systems are implemented with feature-rich FPGA and multi-rate SDI integrated circuits that support high performance professional video transport over long distances. But FPGAs demand high density routing with fine trace width while high-speed analog SDI routing demands impedance matching and signal fidelity. This paper outlines the layout challenges facing hardware engineers and provides recommendations for dealing with these challenges.
In this paper we present a single FPGA chip implementation of a NOC based shared memory multiprocessor system with 24 processors connected to a main memory composed of 4 DDR2 banks. All the processors and DDR2 memories are connected to a NOC through Open Core Protocol (OCP-IP) interface. The MPSOC have been validated and evaluated through actual execution with matrix multiplication application. A Global Asynchronous Local Synchronous (GALS) design methodology have been adopted throughout the design cycle and exploited for clock trees designs.
To support High Definition Television (HDTV) application, the System on Chip (SoC) presented in this paper has to support multiple and concurrent internal processes. Most of these operations read data from memory, process them and store the resulting data into memory. Each functional unit of the system is responsible for a specific data processing, but all the data are stored in the same shared external memories.
This paper discusses wireless audio transmission and the issues that need consideration, and suggests the apt-X algorithm as an appropriate and advantageous coding solution.
This whitepaper summarizes the limitations of traditional bus-based approaches, introduces the advantages of the generic concept of NoC, and provides specific data about Arteris’ NoC, the first commercial implementation of such architectures
