| Overview: | The VIPTIM is a video and image processing TIM-40 module that has a 'C40 processor on-board. The VIPTIM's 'C40 has 4M byte fast page mode DRAM on its local bus, and 3 banks of VRAM, each 1Mbyte in size, on its global bus. The framestore is 1024x1024 pixels at maximum, and has 8-bit pixels. The results can be stored at 16-bit resolution. The VIPTIM is intended for processing 8-bit images or 8 bit colour components of RGB images. Numerous filter operations on a convolution kernel are supported. The kernel can be up to 7x6 or 14x3 in size. Larger kernels can be achieved with multiple passes. Processing is performed at 12.5 MPixels/sec. The VIPTIM is a size 2 TIM-40 module. After a minimal software configuration the 'C40 is free to be used as a general system resource. On-board the VIPTIM carries an IDROM. The processor clock is derived from an on-board Xtal oscillator, enabling mixed speed 'C4x networks. The JTAG port is used for debugging. Hunt Engineering motherboards are designed in such a way that a whole system, consisting of any set of motherboards and TIM-40 modules, can be controlled by one and the same JTAG port. |
