ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a multimedia processing system for communicating data among a baseband module, an image sensor module, and at least one display module in a wireless mobile phone. The multimedia processing system further comprises a serial baseband interface, an image sensor interface, and a display interface for transmitting and receiving data, including processing data, image data, and display data, to and from essential components. Certain embodiments of the invention describe the hardware implementations of the serial interface, including a serial peripheral interface and a universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter interface. Other implementations are also possible. Another embodiment of the invention provides a multimedia processing system that comprises a single chip with an embedded image sensor module. Moreover, another embodiment comprises a bypass mechanism to bypass incoming signals to other components directly. For example, to accelerate the image data transfer which has a changeless data structure, a direct bypass can improve the data transfer speed. The present invention also provides a method for communicating among a baseband module, an image sensor module, and at least one display module in a wireless mobile phone. The method comprises the steps of transmitting and receiving data among the mentioned modules and other components via at least one serial interface scheme.
