Video processing applications often store a full frame of video data to process the frame and modify the next frame. In such designs video frames are stored in external memory while FPGA resources are used to process same data. This example shows how to design a video application with HDMI input and output performing histogram equalization using external memory for video frame buffering.

Presents a systematic approach to design the data-path between hardware logic (FPGA) and embedded processor using SoC Blockset. Applications are often partitioned between hardware logic and embedded processor on a system-on-chip (SoC) device to meet throughput, latency and processing requirements. You will design and simulate the entire application comprising of FPGA & processor algorithms, memory interface and task scheduling to meet the system requirements. You will then validate the design on hardware by generating code from the model and implementing on a SoC device.

Demonstrates how to analyze memory bandwidth for an SoC application. In memory-intensive hardware designs, you may have multiple masters accessing a common DDR memory. In such cases, it is important to analyze the dynamic requirement of all memory masters to guide algorithm design and hardware board requirement for deployment. You can simulate the memory traffic using Memory traffic generators, analyze the bandwidth usage and verify it on the hardware.
