摘要: A graphics system may include one or more processing units for processing a current display frame, each processing unit including a plurality of parameter registers for storing parameter settings used in processing the current display frame. A parameter buffer in the graphics system may store frame packets, with each frame packet containing information corresponding to parameter settings to be used for at least one display frame. A control circuit coupled to the buffer and to the one or more processing units may retrieve and process a top frame packet from the parameter buffer to update one or more of the parameter registers according to the contents of the top frame packet. The control circuit may issue DMA requests to fill the parameter buffer with frame packets transferred from system memory, where the frame packets may be written by an application (or software) executing on a central processing unit.

摘要: Video display pipes may terminate with a FIFO (first-in first-out) buffer from which pixels are provided to a display controller to display the pixels on a graphics/video display. The display pipes may frequently process the pixels at a much higher rate than at which the display controller fetches the pixels from the FIFO buffer. In an error-checking only mode, the FIFO may be disabled, and an error-checking (e.g. CRC) block connected in front of the FIFO may receive the pixels processed by the display pipes as fast as the display pipes are capable of processing the pixels. Accordingly, the length of test/simulation time required to perform a test may be determined by the rate at which pixels are generated rather than the rate at which the display controller displays the pixels. It also becomes possible to perform testing/simulation in environments where a display is not supported or is not available. The results generated by the error-checking may be read and compared to an expected value to detect test pass/fail conditions.

摘要: A video display pipe used for processing pixels of video and/or image frames may include edge Alpha registers for storing edge Alpha values corresponding to the edges of an image to be translated across a display screen. The edge Alpha values may be specified based on the fractional pixel value by which the image is to be moved in the current frame. The video pipe may copy the column and row of pixels that are in the direction of travel, and may apply the edge Alpha values to the copied column and row. The edge Alpha values may control blending of the additional column and row of the translated image with the adjacent pixels in the original frame, providing the effect of the partial pixel movement, simulating a sub-pixel rate of movement.

摘要: Various techniques are provided for processing image data acquired using a digital image sensor. In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, one such technique may relate to the processing of image data in a system that supports multiple image sensors. In one embodiment, the image processing system may include control circuitry configured to determine whether a device is operating in a single sensor mode (one active sensor) or a dual sensor mode (two active sensors). When operating in the single sensor mode, data may be provided directly to a front-end pixel processing unit from the sensor interface of the active sensor. When operating in a dual sensor mode, the image frames from the first and second sensors are provided to the front-end pixel processing unit in an interleaved manner. For instance, in one embodiment, the image frames from the first and second sensors are written to a memory, and then read out to the front-end pixel processing unit in an interleaved manner.

摘要: A display pipe unit for processing pixels of video and/or image frames may be injected with dither-noise during processing of the pixels. A random noise generator implemented using Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSRs) produces pseudo-random numbers that are injected into the display pipe as dither-noise. Typically, such LFSRs shift freely during operation and the values of the LFSRs are used as needed. By shifting the LFSRs when the values are used to inject noise into newly received data, and not shifting the LFSRs when no new data is received, variations in the delays of receiving the data do not affect the pattern of noise applied to the frames. Therefore, dither-noise can be deterministically injected into the display pipe during testing/debug operation. By updating the LFSRs when new pixel data is available from the host interface instead of updating the LFSRs every cycle, the same dither-noise can be injected for the same received data.

摘要: A system and method is disclosed for efficiently managing power distribution among the various functional blocks used within portable electronic devices. The method includes allowing each functional block to be independently controlled, containing its own low-level software and power controls for setting the local power state of the functional block. For each power control domain in the implementation, hardware uses these local power states and sets the actual operating state of the power control domain accordingly.
