SOPC design of high performance video display processor

This paper presents a system-on-a-programmable chip (SOPC) implementation of the video display processor (VDP). The SOPC system employs advanced architecture with hardware / software integrated system. The real-time IP cores are designed to perform video processing and provide high quality pictures. The embedded software controls video parameters, data flow, and user programs. The whole system is implemented in a Cyclone III FPGA Kit. The experimental results show that the SOPC design of VDP provides high quality video with HD resolution.
