ABSTRACT:
A graphics processing accelerator has a plurality of digital signal processors that each have an output, and an input in communication with a request bus. The digital signal processors are arranged in a peer-to-peer configuration to process, on a cyclical basis, each of a successive series of graphics requests received over a request bus. The graphics processing accelerator also may have a sequencer in communication with each digital signal processor output for ordering graphics requests processed by the digital signal processors.
