ABSTRACT:
A media processor for performing audio, video, and system layer tasks on a fully programmable single-chip integrated processor chip. The present invention performs video compression/decompression, audio compression/decompression, video input and output scaling, video input and output processing for enhancement, and system layer functions. The media processor is a single IC semiconductor chip that is coupled to one or more memory chips, audio front-end chip, and optional I/O interface chips. The media processor is compromised of the following integrated on a single IC semiconductor: Video processor with a SIMD vector engine, audio processor, stream processor, system (host) processor, and video scalers, LUTs and hardware blender.
