Design Exploration of Video Pre-Processor for FPGA based SoC

• FPGA based implementation of embedded systems has many attractive characteristics such as: flexibility, low cost, high integration, embedded distributed memories and extensive parallelism. One application where there is a significant possible potential for FPGA is for the implementation of real-time video processing. In this paper we present an analysis of a video pre-processor and how this affects the FPGA and RAM resource usage and performance. From these results we indicate the best space-time mapping of operations under different design constraints. These results can be used as a decision base when implementing an FPGA based video enabled display unit.
