Abstract:
An adaptive transcoder is provided that includes a shared memory containing a plurality of decoder buffers to store incoming data packets, a plurality of decoder instances to control a decoding process to generate image raw data based on the incoming data packets, and a plurality of encoder instances configured to control an encoding process to generate outgoing packets based on the image raw data; and a data processing element containing a plurality of processing cores, and a core controller. Each decoder instance is paired with an encoder instance; and each decoder buffer is associated with a decoder instance. Each decoder buffer includes a monitoring element to monitor a respective decoder buffer, and provide buffer data corresponding to the status of the decoder buffer. Each encoder instance is associated with a processing core; and the core controller uses the buffer data to associate each decoder instance with a processing core.
Abstract:
This invention is a digital signal processor form plural sums of absolute values (SAD) in a single operation. An operational unit performing a sum of absolute value operation comprising two sets of a plurality of rows, each row producing a SAD output. Plural absolute value difference units receive corresponding packed candidate pixel data and packed reference pixel data. A row summer sums the output of the absolute value difference units in the row. The candidate pixels are offset relative to the reference pixels by one pixel for each succeeding row in a set of rows. The two sets of rows operate on opposite halves of the candidate pixels packed within an instruction specified operand. The SAD operations can be performed on differing data widths employing carry chain control in the absolute difference unit and the row summers.
