ABSTRACT:
A system and a method for improving magnified texture-mapped pixel performance in a single-pixel pipeline. Two textured pixel addresses corresponding to two pixels may be generated. The two textured pixel addresses may then be passed to the next unit in the pipeline, where the two textured pixel addresses can be examined if the corresponding two pixels correspond to a common set of texels in texture space. The two textured pixel addresses may be merged together if the two pixels correspond to the common set of texels. Merging may operate to create a combined texel structure. Texel data may be generated in response to receiving the combined texel structure. The texel data may be filtered using one or more texture filters in order to generate texture values.
