A portable DVD layer including the digital video enhancer has a generally thin prismatic enclosure having a first major surface, a second major surface separated from said first major surface, and side surfaces connecting the first major surface to the second major surface. At least a portion of the first major surface includes a video display, and the enclosure includes a DVD entry port such that a DVD can be inserted into the enclosure.

Description

1 26diH Λ Λ y\ 2 o d ι449 99 § 0 0 2 經濟部智慧財產局員工消费合作社印製 B7 五、發明說明(f ) 本發明是有關於一種可攜式視頻機技術及視頻影像 之處理,且特別是有關於一種解交錯及增強視頻影像之技 術。 由於數位視頻提供有許多的優點,故從類比視頻技術 急速的發展至數位視頻技術。因爲數位視頻可被儲存在隨 機存取媒體上,例如磁碟裝置(硬碟)及光碟媒體如習知光碟 片(CDs),故數位視頻相較於類比視頻來說,數位視頻可較 爲便宜的被儲存及分配。一旦儲存在隨機存取媒體上,數 位視頻可變爲互動,並允許其被使用在遊戲、目錄、訓練、 課程及其他應用上。 以數位視頻技術爲基礎的最新產品之一係爲數位視 頻碟片,有時稱爲”數位多功能碟片”或僅稱爲”DVD〜這 些碟片之尺寸如同音樂CD,但其提供有17兆資料位元組, 音樂CD上之資料的26倍。DVD儲存容量(nG位元組)遠 大於CD-ROM(600M位元組)’且DVD比CD-ROM可在一 較高的速率下傳遞資料。因此’ DVD技術代表在視頻與聲 音品質上之一巨大改善,其遠優於傳統系統例如電視、 VCRs 及 CD-ROM。 然而,利用DVD及其他數位視頻技術來顯示動畫的 主要問題,在於動畫源具有不同的圖框速度。舉例來說, 當使用國家電視系統委員會(NTSC)標準之電視廣播更新運 作爲60Hz時’標準膜之射出速率爲24 Hz。透過一稱爲解 交錯之過程將動畫轉換成數位視頻,通常會在解析度中產 生一顯著的縮小狀況,如同習知運動膺像之失真。 4 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210x297公釐) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 裝--------訂---------.^、 經濟部智慧財產局員工消费合作社印製 4 49 9¾2¾ 五、發明說明(z ) 另一個利用數位視頻技術的問題,係動畫以各種不同 的格式到達。舉例來說’當視頻顯示器通常較爲狹長時, 戲院中之電影會被格式化用於寬螢幕。視頻影像製作用以 將一數位或數位化影像從一格式轉換成另一格式舉例來 說’爲了在一特定顯不裝置例如具有一固定解析度爲 640x480之LCD面板上顯示,則具有一空間解析度爲720 水平乘以48〇垂直像素之數位影像,可能會被轉換成另一 解析度。然而,大多習知的視頻製作方法,於轉換影像中 提供拙劣的解析度。此製作方法提供之品質解析度,於實 行時花費極高。 然而視頻影像製作的另一問題,係其可能需要介於兩 不同步及/或不同資料率領域間之資料傳輸。使用上述段落 之範例,從720水平像素製作成640像素(比率爲9 : 8), 則需要介於541^12領域與48]\/[112:領域(比率爲9:8)間之一 介面。在習知技藝中,介於兩不同步及/或不同資料率領域 間之資料傳輸,其需使用巨大、昂貴的緩衝器。 數位視頻技術會較難利用的另一原因,係因爲DVD 播放機一般都是較大、較笨重的裝置,而不易運送。因爲 DVD播放機在操作時必須附加一視頻顯示器,例如電視或 電視螢幕,故使其實際上被限制在無法於任何地方使用。 此外,習知的行動視頻系統亦有一大堆惱人的問題。手持 與行動電視·般都設定到呈現接收弊端例如RF多路徑干 擾,以及在鄕村地區中之拙劣或不規則的訊號強度。經由 提供捲帶播放性能,整合TV/VCR樂隊單元可解決這些問 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 X 297公釐) ί' ---* 裝 - ------訂 ------!^·> (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) A7 B7 S ] 20pit'l .<.1〇cMKJ2 449 99 9 五、發明說明(多) 題,但其實體太大故不適於攜帶。 如上述所言,具有一能夠易於攜帶且能在各種狀況下 使用之可攜式視頻播放機是有必要的。此外,在消除行動 人爲因素的同時,具有提供保存影像之全解析之.一解交錯 及重新格式化的方法與裝置’也是有必要的。當要縮小成 本時,具有一用以提供高品質視頻標度及垂直處理之方法 與裝置,也是有必要的。當要縮小成本及消除巨大與昂貴 緩衝器之需要時,具有一用以提供不同步資料介面之方法 與裝置,是有必要的。 有鑒於此,本發明可以數個方法來實現,包括例如一 過程'一裝置系統、一元件或一方法。本發明之幾個 發明實施例將描述如下。 在本發明之一實施例中,提出一種數位影像增強器。 數位影像增強器包括一解交錯處理器,接收一交錯視頻 串。此解交錯處理器包括一第一解交錯器與一第二解交錯 器’並提供一解交錯視頻串。數位影像增強器也包括一視 頻輸出處理器,接收解交錯視頻串之輸出,以提供一標度、 解交錯視頻串。 在本發明之另一實施例中,提出一種數位影像增強 器,包括一解交錯處理器,接收一交錯視頻串並提供一解 交錯視頻串。數位影像增強器也包括一視頻輸出處理器, 接收解交錯處理器之輸出。解交錯處理器處理垂直截割之 交錯視頻串’以提供一標度、解交錯視頻串。 在本發明之再一實施例中,提出-種可攜式DVD播放 本紙張尺度適用令國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 X 297公釐) ----------I > * 11 I--I 訂- ----- - - -線 1 (請先閒讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 經濟部智慧財產局貝工消費合作社印製 A7 4 4 9 gP90|9'1 doc 002 五、發明說明(% ) 機。此可攜式DVD播放機包括一槪略薄稜柱圍繞物,具有 一第一主表面、從第一主表面分離之一第二主表面,以及 側面連接第一主表面及第二主表面。至少一部分之第一主 表面包括一視頻顯示器,以及此圍繞物包括一 DVD進入 埠,其可使〜-DVD被***圍繞物中。 可攜式DVD播放機也包括一數位處理系統,包括一解 碼器、一影像增強裝置及一顯示控制器。解碼器接收來自 被***圍繞物中之一 DVD的信號,以提供一解碼、交錯視 頻信號。影像增強裝置轉換交錯視頻信號成一解交錯視頻 信號。顯示控制器使用解交錯視頻信號以提供累進掃描視 頻於視頻顯示器上。 在本發明之又一實施例中,提出一種處理數位視頻的 方法。此方法包括經由至少一數量之解交錯方法之一,解 交錯一交錯視頻串,以產生一解交錯視頻串。此方法也包 括調整此解交錯視頻串。 爲讓本發明之上述和其他目的、特徵、和優點能更明 顯易懂,下文特舉較佳實施例,並配合所附圖式,作詳細 說明如下= 圖式之簡單說明: 第1A及1B圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之可 攜式DVD播放機的示意圖; 第2A、2B及2C圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例 之DVD播放機的幾個不同應用的示意圖; 第2D圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之DVD播 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 x 297公釐) ------------ --------訂- - --- - ---1 (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 經濟部智慧財產局員工消费合作社印製 經濟部智慧財產局wc工消費合作社印製 4 49 9 9t2grin d^002 A7 B7 五、發明說明(夕) 放機的平台及伴隨之視頻監視器的示意圖; 第2E圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之”桌上型 平板”(“0以10^以1^”)0乂0播放機的示意圖; 第3圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之DVD播 放機之電子電路的方塊圖; 第4圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之影像增強 機制(IE2)的系統圖; 第5圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之在解交錯 過程中,結合圖場至圖框中的方法示意圖; 第6圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之視頻解交 錯器的方塊圖; 第7圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之累進圖框 偵測器的系統圖; 第8圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之在圖場區 別模組內的處理步驟流程圖: 第9圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之頻率偵測 模組的詳細描述圓: 第10圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之PFPD模 組的系統圖; 第11圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之解交錯 過程的示意圖; 第12圖係顯示用來描述本發明之像素値的兩尺寸陣 列圖; 第13圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之用以從 --— —— — — — — I I - · I I-----^ I I I-----^、 (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(2]0 X 297公釐) i'l .dou. 002 A7 B7 五、發明說明(() 第〗2圖之兩尺寸陣列中獲得一輸出像素的方法示意圖; 第〗4A圓繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之用來描 述該方法的示意圖; 第14B圖繪示的是從第14A圖之取樣線中之.一組樣本 的圖表: 第14C圖繪示的是一取樣餘弦波的圖表; 第15圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之用來描 述臨限一偵測値的方法示意圖; 第丨6圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之混合電 路的方塊圖; 第Π圖繪示的是當DV大於”0”,但小於”1”時,依照 本發明一較佳實施例之混合電路的示範操作圖; 第18圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之用以偵 測對角線特徵的方法示意圖; 第19圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之對角線 混合電路的方塊圖; 第20圖繪不的是用來計算第16圖之對角線混合電路 之輸出之二次陣列的像素示意圖; 第21圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之對角線 偵測方法的流程圖; 第22圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之可變標 度FIR濾波器的簡例圖: $ 第23圖繪不的是低通濾波器在時域中之圖表; 桌24圖繪不的是係數組成L組,每組有多個係數的 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 X 297公釐) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁> I I I I I I 訂-----It—— 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 A7 B7 4 49 99 9 五、發明說明(1) 圖表; 第25圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之量子化 的方法流程圖; 第26圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之改變係 數的方法流程圖; 第27圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之視頻圖 框的示意圖,其經由一對應數量之掃描線’被細分成做爲 一截割(slice)掃描序列之一數量之垂直截割’ 第28圖繪示的是起始截割中心部分的簡例圖’在其 左邊緣及右邊緣上有無效資料的問題; 第29圖繪示的是一截割沿著起始截割中心部分的左 及右邊緣,具有增加的屏翼(wings); 第30圖繪示的是重疊截割/屏翼結合之整個結構不思 圖; 第31圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之處理視 頻的方法流程圖; 第32圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之以視頻 處理器爲基礎之截割的系統示意圖; 第3 3圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳貫施例之視頻處 理晶片架構的系統示意圖; 第34圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之一不同 步介面的方塊圖: 第35圖繪示的是依照本發明一較佳實施例之一交替 不同步介面的方塊圖; 本紙張尺度適用令國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 X 297公釐) -----------' 11--— 11 訂----I I ί ..

Description of the invention (f) The present invention relates to a portable video machine technology and processing of video images. In particular, it relates to a technique for de-interlacing and enhancing video images. Because digital video provides many advantages, it has rapidly developed from analog video technology to digital video technology. Because digital video can be stored on random access media, such as magnetic disk devices (hard disks) and optical disc media such as conventional CDs, digital video is cheaper than analog video Is stored and allocated. Once stored on random-access media, digital videos can become interactive and allow them to be used in games, catalogs, training, courses, and other applications. One of the latest products based on digital video technology is digital video discs, sometimes called "digital multi-disc" or just "DVD" ~ These discs are the same size as music CDs, but they are available in 17 Megabytes of data, 26 times the data on a music CD. DVD storage capacity (nG bytes) is much larger than CD-ROM (600M bytes) 'and DVDs can operate at a higher rate than CD-ROMs Passing data. So 'DVD technology represents a huge improvement in video and sound quality, which is far superior to traditional systems such as TVs, VCRs and CD-ROMs. However, the main problem of using DVD and other digital video technologies to display animation, The reason is that the animation source has different frame speeds. For example, when the television broadcast update using the National Television System Committee (NTSC) standard operates at 60Hz, the output rate of the standard film is 24 Hz. Through a process called deinterlacing Converting an animation into a digital video usually produces a significant reduction in resolution, as is the case with the distortion of the conventional artefacts. 4 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210x297) Li) (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) -------- Order ---------. ^, Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Consumer Cooperatives 4 49 9¾2¾ V. Description of the Invention (z) Another problem with digital video technology is that animations arrive in various formats. For example, 'when video displays are usually narrow and long, movies in theaters are formatted for wide screens. Video image production is used to convert a digital or digitized image from one format to another. For example, 'for display on a particular display device such as an LCD panel with a fixed resolution of 640x480, there is a space A digital image with a resolution of 720 horizontal by 48 vertical pixels may be converted to another resolution. However, most conventional video production methods provide poor resolution in the converted image. This production method provides The quality resolution is extremely expensive to implement. However, another problem of video image production is that it may require data transmission between two areas that are not synchronized and / or different data rates. Use the above paragraphs As an example, from 720 horizontal pixels to 640 pixels (a ratio of 9: 8), you need an interface between 541 ^ 12 field and 48] \ / [112: field (a ratio of 9: 8). In In conventional techniques, data transmission between two asynchronous and / or different data rate fields requires the use of huge and expensive buffers. Another reason why digital video technology is difficult to use is because DVD players are generally Both are large, bulky devices that are not easy to transport. Because a DVD player must be attached with a video display, such as a TV or TV screen, it is practically limited to use anywhere. In addition, Xi Known mobile video systems also have a whole host of annoying problems. Both handheld and mobile TV are generally set to present reception disadvantages such as RF multipath interference, and poor or irregular signal strength in the village. By providing reel-to-reel performance, integrated TV / VCR band units can solve these problems.

Description of the Invention (Multiple) Questions , But its entity is too large to carry. As mentioned above, it is necessary to have a portable video player that can be easily carried and can be used in various situations. In addition, while eliminating the human factor of action, it is also necessary to have a method and device for providing full analysis of the saved image. A method and device for de-interlacing and reformatting. When it comes to reducing costs, it is also necessary to have a method and apparatus for providing high-quality video scaling and vertical processing. When it comes to reducing costs and eliminating the need for huge and expensive buffers, it is necessary to have a method and device to provide an asynchronous data interface. In view of this, the present invention may be implemented in several methods, including, for example, a process, a device system, an element, or a method. Several inventive embodiments of the present invention will be described below. In one embodiment of the present invention, a digital image enhancer is provided. The digital image enhancer includes a de-interlacing processor that receives an interlaced video stream. The deinterleaving processor includes a first deinterleaver and a second deinterleaver 'and provides a deinterlaced video string. The digital image enhancer also includes a video output processor that receives the output of the de-interlaced video string to provide a scaled, de-interlaced video string. In another embodiment of the present invention, a digital image enhancer is provided, which includes a de-interlacing processor, which receives an interlaced video string and provides a de-interlaced video string. The digital image enhancer also includes a video output processor that receives the output of the de-interlacing processor.

This paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 meals) A7 5 I26piH .doc 002 49 99 9 V. Description of the invention () The housing 12 preferably has a "flat" shape, which is easy to use and carry The enclosed single-button housing design provides simplicity, ease of manufacture, strict nature, weight reduction and practicality. An optional platform station allows simple one-time connection and assembly to external video systems.-Battery pack 38 is preferably an alternative Rechargeable modules, which are based on NiMH technology, are used for high power density at low cost. It is preferred that the battery pack use a standard, non-customized battery cell with 40 watt-hour performance, which can be used in Provides saturated power for more than 2.5 hours under continuous operation. During this period normally meet to see a complete, feature-length movie. Also shown as input and output to / from units. When connecting to other components from within the system controller 34, as shown by the bus, these can actually be achieved through separate connections if appropriate for the particular unselected component selection. The structure of the DVD drive module 26 can be designed according to the standard size of the components and easy expansion. System expansion can be accomplished via the I / O selection module interface, which allows the driver module 26 to interact with the video and sound subsystems, as is the system controller 34. The interface accommodates expansion modules with, for example, alternate sound and / or video input and specific sound processing functions, allowing the present invention to allow users to customize it for various applications. Alternate product architectures can be easily replaced by key system components. If standard components are used in many areas of the system (such as the DVD drive module 26), similar components can simply be replaced. For example, most small cells can be constructed by using a smaller LCD battery pack. When the power converter and battery charger are constructed, they can be used for different battery sizes and technologies.

In the description of the invention (ΓΪ), the display controller can directly accommodate various display sizes. Most of the full capabilities of this architecture can include additional (optional) components to add functionality. For example, units with full video components and sound I / O need only add additional D / A converters' video decoders, additional connectors, and enclosure modifications. The system software of the portable DVD player of the present invention is preferably constructed in two main stages: a high-level user interface software and a low-level component control software. The software running on the system microcontroller 34 is preferably stored in a read-only memory ("ROM") (not shown). The low-level segment interface directly connects the hardware components of the system and directly interacts with them in the register stage. It provides power on and initialization, hardware component architecture, basic component control and synchronization, and user interface software. Between these two stages, the present invention provides a "control / status" application programming interface ("API"). This is a moderately high-level interface with API functions that directly connect to traditional user controllers, such as "play", "skip to the next track ,,,,, show the elapsed time" and so on. When the status function allows the user interface software to request information about the status of the player hardware, the control function provides the user interface software to the device to issue commands based on the user's control. This architecture allows customization of user interface software.

Description of the invention (q) Enter the buffer of the field Device 134b, and so on. After the field buffer 134d is full, the next entry video field will be written into the field buffer 134a again. During the time period of a field, the entering field is written into a field buffer 134, and three previous fields are read from the other field buffers 134. For example, as shown in Figure 6, the entry field is written to 134a, and then the field buffers 134b-d are read into a designated FIFO memory 136, 138, and 140. FIFO memories 136, 138, and 140 are used to read and write the four video fields into a single substance memory unit 134, and are also used to separate the video, memory unit 134, and the associated de-interlacing process.

The outputs of the three read FIFOs 136 '138 and 140 are respectively marked as the next field, the current field and the previous field. From the standpoint of the de-interlacing processor 130, this flag indicates that the de-interlacing process forces a delay of nearly two field time periods on the video string. The outputs of FIFOs 136, 138 and 140 are synchronized so that the three fields are presented on a co-occurring processing platform. The three fields will then be used as input to present to an inter-field progressive frame detector 142, which will generate an up ... / next (L / N) signal 144 ', a progressive frame detection S! J (PFD) signal 146 and a platform 1 detection tag (StagelDV) 148. The L / N signal 144 is a control signal, which instructs a field combination platform 150 to combine the current field with the previous field or the next field. It is from three consecutive input video strings. The paper size applies Chinese national standards.

The field of invention description (1 丨). Under these three fields, the field combination platform 150 generates a progressive format output frame 1 5 2. If the current field is even, the next and previous fields must be odd, and vice versa. Therefore, the progressive format frame 152 output by the field combination platform 150 will usually be a combination of an even number and an odd number. This is very important, because the correct combination of the fields into a progressive frame requires the input of an even and an odd field. The optional internal frame deinterleaver 154 may provide additional processing to remove artifacts that occur in the output frame 152 under certain conditions, such as when the PFD signal 146 is de-asserted. If the frame detector 142 detects an incoming video signal originally from a source, it is claimed that a progressive frame and a PFD signal 146 are included. The three original patterns of the source video will be detected: the film under the frame of 24 frames per second, the computer animation or the frame performance under the frame of 30 frames per second, or the static image. No motion occurs in the image during more than a few fields in. When PFD signal 46 is asserted, optional processor 154 is disabled. However, if the frame detector 142 cannot detect the progressive frame sequence from the incoming video field, it will set the L / N signal 144 in the field combination platform 15 to always combine the current and previous fields. Then, the frame detector 142 does not claim the PFD signal 146, it will notify the optional deinterleaver 154 that there are human factors in the output frame, and may require additional processing to remove the human factors and create a final progressive output Frame 152 '. The detection of the progressive frame sequence needs to maintain the historical record of the previous field. However, the progressive frame detector H2 can view only one field in advance.

Description of the invention (4) If a large image conversion occurs, due to the original editing The factors of the video source may cause the progressive frame sequence to change. This change may force the frame created by entering the field to change, but it is impossible to know in advance the arrival of the field. For this reason, the progressive frame detector 142 must be able to detect transitions in the animation, as the transition may indicate that editing it may change the progressive frame sequence. If a transition is detected, the progressive frame detector 142 will not assert the PFD signal 146 during the time period and will be asked to confirm the new progressive frame sequence. This will allow motion distortion to be removed via the optional deinterleaver 154 during the time period, and a progressive frame sequence needs to be retrieved. If a progressive 'frame sequence is not detected and the PFD output is not asserted, the StadelDV 148 output contains important information about the number of actions present in the image. This information may be used in optional deinterleaver 154 to additionally process the image. FIG. 7 is a system diagram of a progressive frame detector 142 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The frame detector 142 includes a field discrimination module 154, a frequency detection module 156, and a progressive frame pattern detection (PFPD) module 158. The field difference module 154 calculates the difference between the next field 160 and the previous field 162, and processes the difference into StagelDV 148, a conversion detection 3: 2 number, 166, and multiple history. Bit 168. The frequency detection module 156 combines a current field 164 and a previous field 162 into a frame, and then the detection result comes from the vertical high frequency of motion distortion. Next, the frequency detection module 156 outputs a number of frequency detection history bits 170 and a conversion detection 2: 2 counts 172. Finally, PFPD 158 received the conversion detection as input 3: 2 digits 値 166, multiple historical field bits 168, 26, etc. This paper size is in accordance with China's Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 g) ) --I ------ I 11 'I ---- I 1 ^ I--1 — —! v (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) 5 \ 2βρ \ 449 99 9 5! 26pit'l .doc / 002 A7 B7 Printed by the Shellfish Consumer Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Frequency detection history bit] 70 and transition detection 2: 2: 値 Π2 to generate L / N signal 144 and PFD signal 146. FIG. 8 shows a flowchart of processing steps in the field identification module 154 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The two arrays below the pixel 174 are a subset of the next field 160, and the one array above the pixel 176 is a subset of the previous field 162, which are all input to a differentiator 178. Next and Top — The pixel arrays 174 and Π6 can be viewed as windows, moving across their fields. The "window" will move from left to right and from top to bottom. Every time the window is moved 'a new rate is calculated. The result of the rating operation 178 is' 180 in an array. Use one of the weighted 180 arrays to calculate the StagelDV 148. This weighted frame is like the difference between the adjacent array centers, which has a large effect on the weighted average frame. The array of rates 180 is also input to a field rate accumulator 182, which sums the entire field's rate to produce a field rate of 184. The five field rates previously stored in the memory module 186 are totaled in one operation 188. In operation 190, 'the total of the previous five field differences is compared with the current field difference' and the result is a conversion 3: 2 output signal 192. The current field rate 184 is compared with the number in the programmable field rate 184 in a critical operation 194. The result of the critical operation 194 is a first-order field bit 198, which is a unit cell 'representing that the next field 160 is the same as the previous field 162. The previously-waiting field location 168 will be stored in the memory module 200, and it will be used in the PFPD 158 of FIG. 7.

The output of the operation 216 in the field frequency detection accumulator 218 during the entire field period is accumulated to generate a field frequency detection 値 220. The field frequency detection unit 220 is stored in a memory module 222 containing the previous five field field detection units. The five previous field frequency detections are totaled in operation 224, and the results are compared in operation 226 with the current frequency detections 220. The comparison result in operation 226 is a conversion 2: 2 bit 228, which represents the conversion that occurred in the 2: 2 sequence. Employees of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs of the People's Republic of China (锖 Please read the notes on the back before filling in this page) As part of the parallel process, a first previous field detection stored in the memory module 22 will be detected Send it to a multiplier 232 to multiply it by one of the numbers stored in the programmable field frequency critical register 234. This multiplication result is compared with the current field frequency detection 値 220 in operation 236. The result is a relative frequency difference bit 239, which is then stored in the memory module 240. The previous ten relative frequency difference bits 242 are output to the PFPD module 158. FIG. 10 is a system diagram of a PFPD module 158 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The PFPD module 158 converts a set of field difference history bits 244 'Frequency detection history bits 242' into 3: 2 numbers 値 192 (refer to the 8th national standard (CNS) A4 specification applicable to this paper standard) 210 X 297 (") 4 49 9¾2¾ 5 126oitl; doc / 002 A7 4 49 9¾2¾ 5 126oitl; doc / 002 A7 Printed by B7, Industrial Property and Consumer Cooperatives, Intellectual Property Bureau, Ministry of Economic Affairs 5. Description of invention (outside) Figure) And conversion 2: Count 228 (refer to Figure 9) and perform logical operations. After the field difference history bit 244 is input, the logical operation 246 finds that each fifth field is an equal pattern, and confirms that the 3: 2 pull-down detection bit. Next, when the difference between the most recent four fields is zero, the logical operation 248 detects a still image by setting the STILL bit. The state of the L / N control signal is set via a logic operation 250. The input from the frequency detection history bit 242, the logic operation 252 detects a 2: 2 pull-down detection by finding the high-frequency and low-frequency interlaced patterns in the number of consecutive fields, and monitoring the frequency detection history bit 242. Positioning unit. Then, a logic operation 254 confirms that the L / N control signal is a 2: 2 pull-down condition. Detecting the bit from 3: 2, converting 3: 2 to 値 192, 2: 2 to pull down the bit, and converting 2: 2 to 228, the PFD signal 146 can be confirmed. The progressive frame of the three-source pattern will be detected. Using a 3: 2 pulldown detected by calculating the difference between the even field pair and the odd field pair, and looking for a condition where every fifth difference is 0, the film is converted into a video. This condition is indicated by a 3: 2 pull-down signal. The animation is generated using a 2: 2 pull-down computer, which can be detected by using a frequency detection method to find the motion distortion accompanying each second combined frame, which is indicated by a 2: 2 pull-down signal. When the field difference between several consecutive fields is 0, the still image will be detected, which is indicated by the STILL signal. The progressive frame is only the logical OR of these three signals, as shown in the logical OR gate 256. However, change must also be provided to the record. As mentioned above, the transition is a major change in the field sequence, the result of which comes from editing, or the separation of the video signal.

Description of the invention (1) Historical record detection progressive frame 'It may be unreliable to require the establishment of a progressive frame pattern in the cycle. In the example description, 'this period is ten fields or about 60 Hz per second. In a set of logic operations 258, a pulse is generated under two conditions. One is when a 3: 2 pull-down sequence is detected, and the other is when a transition in the sequence is detected. If ten fields are required to create a new progressive sequence in a time period, any event will trigger a timer 260 to generate a pulse of ten field durations. During this time ' the logical AND gate 262 disables the PFD bit 146. As previously mentioned, if the PFD bit 146 is non-assertive, an internal frame de-interlacing processor can be selected (as shown in Figure 6) to remove motion distortion during the pause. Therefore, it must be noted that the progressive frame detection process of the present invention provides the elimination of edge human factors in the video image. This can be done by verifying the type of initial animation and using messages to help combine the video field during the de-interlacing process. These combined technologies provide a low-artifact, high-resolution deinterleaved image. The second de-interlacing platform 80 of Fig. 4 will be discussed and described in detail in Figs. 11-21.

The array of pixel 318 has a width of 5 and a height of 7 pixels. Array 318 is marked across the top from C0 to C4 for rows, and is marked vertically along the left, from top to bottom to R6 for columns.

After array 318 moves across all horizontal positions of combined frame 312, it will move two pixels vertically downwards and return to the combined frame Left side of 312. Therefore, even-numbered column 320 contains pixels from most recent fields, and odd-numbered column 322 contains pixels from previous fields.

In operation 328, 'use seven pixels of each row of the two-size array 318 to obtain a frequency detection frame. Since there are five Therefore, five frequency detection operations will be performed to generate a set of detections: fdO, fdl, fd2, fd3, and fd4. Then 'operation 330 threshold' this group detects W0-W4. Then, in operation 332, 'this set of detection thresholds fd0-fd4 will be combined into a weighted average threshold to achieve a final detection threshold (UDV) 334. This weighting factor is variable. A weighting example is as follows: UDV = (fd0 + (2 * fdl) + (8 * fd2) + (2 * fd3) + fd4V〗 4. This weighting makes the frequency detection 値 very close to the center of the array 318, so that it is at UDV 334 has the greatest impact.

Because it is calculated by the most recent field値 Created, its time is related to most recent fields, so the average result will not show motion distortion. Detection between 0 and 1 will make the pixel PR3C2 is a mixture of pR3C2 and the average of pR2C3 and pR4C3. Figure 14A shows a detailed description of the image 340 in operation 328. The image 340 shows the calculation result of a single frequency detection chirp in one row of the array 318. The image 340 includes a warped target 342, which is subjected to an interlaced L The effect of distortion. The image is sampled along line 344, which is shown as an example. This sampling corresponds to one of the two sized arrays 318. In this example, line 344 passes through an area where human factors exist. Generally speaking, the sampling of vertically adjacent pixels may or may not include human factors. Figure 14B shows a chart 346 of a group of samples 348 obtained from the sampling line 344 of Figure 14A. This sampling group 348 is based on The number of columns is shown along the horizontal coordinates, and the brightness or intensity of the pixels is shown along the vertical coordinates. As shown in Figure 346, it is clear that there is motion distortion in this area. For example, this sampling group 348 will display a characteristic frequency. This is the frequency in space, which is quite timely and more convenient to express as Cycles Per Line is better than Cycles Per Second or Hertz. This characteristic frequency is 1 cycle / 2 lines or 0.5 cycle / line. FIG. 14C shows a graph of the sampled cosine wave 350. By multiplying this set of samples 348 by the detected motion distortion of the sample cosine wave 350, the characteristic frequency can be reached.

The hybrid circuit 400 calculates a new frame of pixels in the array R318C2 at position 318. If no motion distortion is detected, the UDV 334 will be 'and the hybrid circuit 400 will output the initial pixel R3C2. If the UDV 334 is "1" and the hybrid circuit 400 will output the average chirp of the upper and lower pixels of R3C2, the output of the hybrid circuit 400 is the average chirp of R2C2 and R4C2. FIG. 17 shows an exemplary operation diagram of the hybrid circuit 400 when the UDV 334 is greater than “0” but less than “1”. The mixing circuit 400 uses the three-pixel array 402 to mix the information of R3C2 and the average of R2C2 and R4C2 to form a new output pixel 406 at the position R3C2.

The SlopeFade signal 416 is the amount of diagonal features. The measure 値 is confirmed by the number of contrasts along the diagonal. A high contrast, such as a diagonal white line across a black background, will be generated at the highest level of the SloPeFade signal 416. The low contrast results from the lower 値 ° of the sloPeFade signal 416. Figure 19 shows a block diagram of a diagonal mixing circuit 418 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The diagonal mixing circuit 418 includes a multiplexer 420, a first mixer 422, and a second mixer 424. The multiplexer 420 relies on the Sign signal 414 to determine which pair of pixels are adjacent to the pixel in use. After a pair of diagonally adjacent pixels are selected, the first mixer 422 mixes pixels vertically adjacent to R3C2 (pixels diagonally adjacent to R3C2). The SlopeFade signal 416 confirms that the mixed number ' is proportional to the amount of diagonal features detected. The second mixer 424 is the final mixing platform, which is equivalent to the mixing circuit 400 as shown in FIG. The second mixer 424 produces an output 'which is confirmed by the input pixel R3C2 and the output of the first mixer 422. UDV 334 is used as a control input for the second mixer 424. In short, the new pixel 値 in R3C2 will be calculated from the pixel 二次 in the secondary array 410.

FIG. 21 shows a flowchart of a diagonal detection method 432 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Method 432 shows the flow of logic and mathematical operations to calculate the SlopeFade signal 416 and Sign signal 414 from the secondary array 410. Through operation 434, the corner pixels are divided into two horizontal pairs and two vertical pairs. The horizontal pairs are labeled hv2 and hv4, and the two vertical pairs are labeled vv2 and VV4. Each pair of corner pixels 値 is subtracted to generate a pair of horizontal differences and a pair of vertical differences. In operation 436, the two horizontal and vertical difference numbers are summed to generate a horizontal and vertical difference vector of one of the secondary arrays 410. Operation 438 calculates the absolute unitary of the horizontal and vertical difference vectors. In operation 440, a threshold value is used to adjust the amount of SlopeFade output 416. The output of operation 44 is an absolute SlopeFade signal (unQualSlopeFade), which depends on the SlopeDisQual signal generated by the "zero output" of the DiagDetect signal and the parallel operation of method 432. The sign of the horizontal and vertical difference from operation 434 is recorded and stored in operation 442. This tick indicates whether operation 434 results in a positive or negative number. Next, operation 444 finds the signs of the horizontal and vertical difference operations as mutually opposing events. If such an event is found, SlopeDisQua 丨 is set to "1". If the signs of the difference operation are not opposite, SlopePlsQua 丨 is "0". In operation 444, the diagonal detector looks for a relatively large diagonal feature; in particular, this feature must be larger than the nine pixel secondary array 410 'for input into the diagonal processor.

Therefore, these small features can be detected by checking the mark and setting SlopeDisQual. Operation 446 compares the magnitudes of the horizontal and vertical vectors calculated in operation 438 to detect a pair of diagonal features. Then, using the horizontal and vertical vectors in operation 440 generates a DiagDetect signal. The ratio of the difference between the horizontal and vertical vectors and the sum of the horizontal and vertical vectors can be adjusted through a threshold 値 diagDetThresh. The final SlopeFade output is calculated in operation 448 and a two-bit input is used to limit the SlopeFade output. The first bit is a DiagonalDetect bit and the second bit is a SlopeDisQual bit. If DiagDetect is 0 or if SlopeDisQual is 1, SlopeFade will be 0. On the other hand, SlopeFade will get the number of unQualSlopeFade. When the slope of the diagonal feature cannot be calculated reliably, the SlopeDisQual signal will change the SlopeFade signal to zero. Finally, in operation 450, the sign signal 414 is calculated using the sign bits generated by performing the sum of the horizontal and vertical vectors in operation 436. Sign signal 4] 4 will be calculated using this logical operation to confirm the slope of the diagonal feature. The video output processor 60 in Fig. 4 will be discussed in detail in Figs. 22-27.

Method 526 starts with a provided parameter set 528 to calculate the coefficients, where L is the numerator of the scale rate L / M, mults is the multiplier used in the FIR filter, and η is the number of bits, and the coefficient will be Will be quantized. In operation 530 ', the FIR filter coefficient is calculated using equation (1). In operation 532, the 'coefficients are composed from left to right and labeled as c (l), c (2), c (3), ... c (L * mults). In operation 534, each coefficient is quantized and rounded to an n-bit number. Next, operation 536 starts a loop that is performed L times, once for each coefficient group 'so that all coefficients of each group are totaled. Operation 538 totals the coefficients of the set (i) of Fig. 24. Then, operation 540 detects whether the result of the total operation 538 is 1.0. If operation 540 yields a real result, no additional steps are performed. The loop is incremented repeatedly in operation 542, and control passes back to operation 536. If operation 540 produces an untrue result, then in operation 544, a hypothetical 値 F is calculated, which can be obtained by subtracting the sum generated by operation 53.8 from 1.0. Then, one of the coefficients of set (i) is changed so that the sum of all coefficients is set (i) = 1.0. FIG. 26 shows a more detailed flowchart of operation 546 in FIG. 25. Operation 548 is a loop through the coefficients of set (i) in a special order. 40 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) II --- 1 -------- ^ ------- 1 (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) 5 1 2pit'l.doc, 2Ο2 449 99 9 Α7 Β7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (Multiple 6) steps. This sequence starts with the furthest coefficient of set⑴ and moves forward to the center of the group. Because each group has mults coefficients, operation 548 is performed mults times. Next, an index k is calculated in operation 550, which is used to process the coefficients of the previous starting order. -The coefficients on the left or right edge of the coefficient group must be processed as a special case. Therefore, 'operation 552' is performed on the index k to confirm whether the processed coefficient is the first coefficient c (l) or the last coefficient c (L * muhs). If operation 552 confirms that the coefficient needs to be adjusted to the leftmost one, in other words, c (l), then operation 554 is performed. Operation 554 evaluates whether the absolute 値 of the sum of c (l) and F is less than or equal to the absolute 値 of the coefficient to the right of c (l). This means c (k + 1) $ c (2). If the result is true, c (l) can be adjusted by increasing F without creating a discontinuity or different from zero coordinates. The coefficient is adjusted in operation 564 and then successfully exits operation 546. If the result is erroneous, operation 560 executes a loop repeatedly. If operation 552 confirms that the coefficient is adjusted to the rightmost one, in other words, c (L * mults) 'then the method proceeds to operation 556. Operation 556 evaluates whether the absolute 値 of the sum of c (L * mults) and F is less than or equal to the absolute 値 of the coefficient to the left of c (L * mults), in other words, c (L * mults-l). If the result is true, c (L * multS) can be adjusted by increasing F without creating a discontinuity or different from zero coordinates. The coefficient is adjusted in operation 564 and then successfully exits operation 546. If the result of operation 556 is incorrect, a loop is performed repeatedly in operation 560.

If any equation is true, the coefficient c (k) is set equal to C (k) + F in operation 564 without Will cause a discontinuity. Therefore, successfully leave operation 546. If any of the equations is wrong, iteratively execute a loop in operation 560. Operation 560 increases the loop iteration variable to evaluate the next coefficient. Operation 562 asks set ( Whether all the coefficients in i) have been evaluated. If all the coefficients in Set (i) have not been evaluated, then control will return to the top of operation 548 and repeat the steps for the next coefficient. If the coefficients in set (i) All coefficients have been evaluated, the coefficient setting cannot be quantized to the η-bit, and there is no need to cause unacceptable discontinuities to The coefficient is being set. Therefore, in operation 566, η is incremented and leaves operation 546. Control then returns to operation 534 (Figure 25) of method 526, whose initial coefficient is quantized to the new value of η, In the case that operation 546 successfully exits, control returns to operation 534 of method 526 (Figure 25) and evaluates the next coefficient set (i).

Line memories are still needed, but currently they are much shorter than in the past, resulting in a significant reduction in on-chip memory requirements. However, it is more difficult to do this. "Scanning of tissue takes place. First, it is often the case that both horizontal and vertical processing must be performed simultaneously. The problem with this result on the left and right clipping boundaries is that horizontal pixel data outside the clipping may not be applicable. The second * traditional raster scan sequence will be changed, resulting in the opposite level of general video source and display / storage components. These problems are discussed below and can be solved by the present invention. Fig. 28 shows a simplified example of the cutting center portion 606, which has a problem of invalid data on the left edge 608 and the right edge 610 thereof. For the purpose of this figure, invalid data is only shown on the left edge of Figure 28. Video processing requires horizontal and vertical orientation, and information surrounding a provided pixel is available (in the case of 5x5 matrices 612 and 614 at the center of the pixel). The center of the cutting center portion 606 has a processing matrix 612 'because it can be used to process horizontal and vertical directions on all sides of the matrix 612, so there is no problem of valid data. In the case of cutting the top edge 618 and the bottom edge 620 of the central portion 606, the data above the top pixel and the data above the bottom pixel are unavailable ', which is equivalent to the conventional raster scan format. There are several ways to solve this situation ', such as replacing zero data with pixel data that does not exist in higher / lower pixels. Therefore, the top and bottom edges 618 and 620 of the 'cut center portion 606 will not have the problem of invalid data. Conversely, the processing matrix 614 is located at the left edge 608 of the cutting center portion 606, and is horizontally adjacent to the data.

The first processing platform 646 is used to remove the external screens 638 and 044, leaving the central portion of the cutting 606. One of the internal screens 640 and 642 is output cut 648. The second processing platform 65 is used to remove the internal screens 640 and 642. Therefore, the screens 624 and 626 are effectively removed during this processing, and the output of the processing block is a cut 652 having a width equivalent to the initial cut center portion 606. One of the effects of the screen wings 624 and 626 is that the width of the screen wings 624 and 626 will increase the cut line memory requirements on the chip. However, the screen width is generally less relevant to the entire cutting width. The actual cutting and screen width are performed independently, and it is based on processing requirements and available external memory bandwidth. A preferred embodiment of the present invention utilizes three vertical video processing blocks. The first processing platform 646 requires a pair of external screen wings 638 and 644 to have a width of 2 pixels: the second processing platform 650 requires a pair of internal screen wings 640 and 642 to have a width of 4 pixels; and the third processing platform 650 requires no screen wings As a designated processing interpretation, it is not required that the data be processed horizontally into vertical data. Select the width of the cut center part to be 36 pixels, resulting in a 48 pixel initial input cut width (center part + left-internal-screen wing + right-internal-screen wing + left-external-screen wing + right-external- Wing = 36 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 2 = 48). It is regrettable that the data input and output of the vertical processing block is not in the raster scan video format.

The reason for using a commodity dram memory element is price and availability. Depending on the type of video processing, the field or frame size buffer provides other necessary purposes than the conversion between full field / frame raster scan and crop scan format. For example, the de-interlacing process generally requires one (sometimes several) field buffers to store multiple fields of video data during short-term processing. The buffer also needs frame rate conversion, where the output frame rate is different from the input rate; in the case of multiple output fields or frame buffers, a frame rate conversion process may be required. Figure 32 shows the system schematic of the basic video processor 654. A first input buffer 656 ', a second input buffer 658, a first output buffer 660, and a table one output buffer 662 are used as the cutting conversion process. Because video applications generally require real-time input and output, and because the scanning processes of conventional raster scanning and cropping scanning are different, the first input buffer 656 is used to store the video input data string from the input data formatter 664. A second input buffer 658 (instead of the previous field / frame period) is used in the cropped scan format 'to provide data to the vertical video processing section 666. A similar process is used as output. When the first output buffer 660 (instead of the previous field / frame period) is used to output data to the output data formatter 668 in the traditional raster scan format, the second output buffer 662 receives the data from the cropped scan format. Processed data in vertical video processing section 666. The output data string can actually provide data to an additional video processing platform, which only processes data in the horizontal direction (such as horizontal scanning and color space conversion). ! —! * ^ · Ί1 --- f Order --I ------ (Please read the notes on the back before filling in this S) The paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) Printed by 449 99 9 5126ρίΠ- < 1〇 (;, · 〇ϋ2 Α7 _ Β7_ _) V.

Each video field enters a 20-cut with a width of 36 pixels, each with a left and right screen of 6 pixels (a 2-pixel outer screen and a 4-pixel inner screen) Wings). The screen is attached to the appropriate point in the video input data string, and the resulting data string is rasterized and written to a first field buffer in an external SDRAM. The three data fields are read synchronously from the SDRAM. These field data can be obtained from the second, third, and fourth field buffers, and read in a vertical crop of 48 pixels wide (the center of the crop and the wings) multiplied by 240 columns. This data is processed by a first vertical processing platform, which provides data in a cut-and-scan format with twice the input rate of a single field to a second platform. The cut data input to the second platform will be formatted as 44 pixels wide by 480 columns (due to the rate-doubling action of the first platform). The second vertical processing platform processes the data and provides 36 pixels wide cropped scan format data of the same ratio as the input of the third vertical processing platform. The third platform is a vertical scaler, which performs non-horizontal processing, so there is no need to cut the screens on the format data. The data is output in a 36-pixel wide crop scan format from the third processing platform to the first frame buffer area of the SDRAM. The number of columns per cut is selected according to the specified vertical scale ratio. The data is input to a horizontal single processing platform in the traditional raster scan format of 72 × 480 * M pixels. Among them, the vertical scaling factor of the third vertical processing platform. This data is processed by a horizontal processor (which includes a horizontal scaler) and outputs a resolution of 72 ** 480 * N in a traditional raster scan format, where N is the horizontal scale factor.

This cost savings in chip memory reduction is greater than compensation for additional requirements of external memory, and provides a variety of prototypes and product options ° Video output processing in Figure 4 The device 60 will be described in detail in Figures 34-38. Figure 34 shows a block diagram of an asynchronous interface 700 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The data source 702 provides data synchronized with the clock C1 at the input The data string 704 is sent to the synchronizer 705. Once the data is received by the synchronizer 705, the write control logic (WCL) unit 706 guides the writing by providing control and address signals to each of the RAM buffers 708, 710, and 712. Enter data into the first RAM buffer One of the buffer 708, the second RAM buffer 710, and the third RAM buffer 712. Once the data is written into the RAM buffers, 710 and 712, the read control logic (RCL) unit 714 provides the address and control signals to The RAM buffers 708 '710 and 712 guide the read data from the RAM buffers 708, 710, and 712. This retrieved data is then output from the synchronizer 705 of the continuous output data string 716 at the clock rate C2 to Data destination 718 ° Read data provided from RAM buffers 708, 710, or 712 will not start until a specific RAM buffer, 71 or 712 is filled with WCL units. In RAM buffer 708, 710, or 712 Once full, the next RAM buffer 708, 710, or 712 will be written sequentially and data can be read from the previously full RAM buffer, 710, and / or 712. Although this particular embodiment uses three A RAM buffer is used for illustration, but more RAM buffers can be used according to the system requirements.

Description of the invention (called ). 705. Optionally, the synchronization logic 720 may be part of the Synchronizer 705. Multiple synchronization schemes can be implemented. For example, 'when a data transfer is initiated, the synchronization logic 720 may direct the WCL unit 706 and the data source 702. After a predetermined period has elapsed, when the first RAM buffer 708 is full and the second RAM buffer 710 is full, the synchronization logic 720 instructs the RCL unit 714 to start reading data from the first RAM buffer 708 'and Provide it to the data destination 718. An alternative is that the data can be transferred more or less freely. The WCL unit 706 receives the data from the data source 702 and writes this data to the next available RAM buffer 708, 710, or 712, and instructs the RCL unit 714 to make each buffer full. The "bufferfuU" signal must be synchronized in the C1 to C2 time domain, usually through a two-bit synchronizer. The RCL unit 714 can latch the "buffer full" state or send back a handshake signal (which must be synchronized to the C2 to C1 time domain) to the WCL unit 706 'to indicate that the "buffer is full, and the signal is The receive or RAM buffers 708, 710, or 712 are empty. Figure 35 shows a block diagram of an alternate asynchronous interface 722. Data transfer starts via an external signal to WCL unit 724, which represents the start of data transfer. WCL 724 is synchronized with clock C1, and is used to generate write enable and address to the first RAM RAM buffer 726, the second RAM RAM buffer 728, and the third RAM RAM buffer 730. The RAM RAM buffer 726, 728, and 730 have synchronous write and asynchronous read performance. Only one single write enable is active at any time. The write enable of RAM buffer 726 is the first claim, and then RAK1 buffer 728. , The standard of this paper is applicable to the standard of hard-to-find families (CNS > A4 specification (210 * 297 mm) ^ installed ------ *-order --------- in ^ (Please read the back first Please fill in this page before printing) Printed by Shelley Consumer Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economy 4 49 99 9 5 1 2 6 pi fl.

In RAM buffer 728 is full and RAM buffer 73 ° is about half full. The external signal is asserted to the RCL unit 732 to start reading the data in the RAM buffers 726 '728 and 730. The RCL unit 732 is synchronized to the clock C2 to generate the address and The data selection line is used for read operations of the RAM buffers 726, 728, and 730. The individual RAM buffers 726, 728, and 730 receive a read or write based on the current write status of the RAM buffers 7%, 728, or 730. Address, in other words, when the other two RAM buffers 726, 728, and 730 receive their address from the RCL unit 732, a RAM buffer 726 '728 or 730 is written to receive its address from the WCL unit 724. Data MUX 734 is controlled by the RCL unit 732 and is used to select the output data string from one of the three RAMs currently being read. Although in this example, an external signal starts data transfer read and write operations, one can select synchronization Logic unit 736 may exist on one or more external "start" letters The lack of it. Figure 36 shows a schematic diagram of the 3_buffer synchronizer sequence 738, the layout of which is related to the read and write operations of the 3 RAM buffer. The level synchronization clock delays the actual time buffer sequence skew (Skew) 739 provides about one half of the RAM buffer separation level collision one buffer, which is between read and write operations of the same RAM buffer that occur at the same time. This buffer absorbs the errors of the “start writing” and “start reading” commands, changes in the input data string during data suspension, and synchronization delays and / or compensated timing deviations between the two time domains.

Description of the invention (0) Method 740 through the RAM address and module arrangement Illustration. The method 740 starts at operation 742 and sets the ram address of the read and write operations to 0, as if selecting a RAM buffer. Then 'operation 744 asks whether the data is valid. If the answer is negative (N) ', operation 744 is repeated until the data is valid. If the answer is yes (Y), the method 740 proceeds to operation 746, which asks if there is a variable called EndCnt equal to one. If the answer is yes (Y) ', then the last RAM module has arrived and the operation 748 increment is performed to select the next RAM module before performing operation 75Ό. If the answer is no (N), the 750 increment RAM address is operated. The method 740 then proceeds to operation 752 to confirm whether the last RAM address has been reached. If it arrives, EndCnt is set equal to 1 in operation 754. If the last RAM address has not been reached, EndCnt is set equal to 0 in operation 756. After operations 754 and 756, method 740 returns to operation 744, and the entire process is performed again. It must be noted that when read and write operations follow the same basic sequence, they skew in time about one or half of the RAM buffer, as mentioned earlier.
