ABSTRACT:
A digital image processing system has a pipeline bus for transferring addresses and data in parallel among the components of the system, which include an image memory, an address generator and an intensity processor. The pipeline bus includes a pipeline address bus, a pipeline data bus, and a master timing bus. Through the use of handshake signals, the pipeline bus permits a free flow of pipelined data among the components at whatever rate is necessary to complete the particular processing task. Image data is transferred in the form of N.times.N pixel subimage blocks which can be addressed using a single address.
