Image Processing System with a New Systolic Array LSI Akira Ichinose, Kenji Suzuki, Yoshinori Wakimoto, Mitsuru Yanagisawa, Yuichiro Asano |
Synopsis : A LSI with a new type of systolic array was developed jointly by Kawasaki Steel and HNC, Inc. for image processing applications. This LSI is capable of performing convolution operations with a kernel larger than its own 8~8 array. The image size can be adjusted up to 4 096~4 096 pixels as required, which avoids the normal restrictions involved in processing images of various sizes and with variable-sized kernels. A new high-performance image processing system is now being developed to exploit the capability of this LSI in combination with a general-purpose RISC processor. Modular design for both the software and hardware gives the system outstanding expandability and flexibility of application. |
