Multimedia system - Video & Graphics and Display i/f
The i.MX51x multimedia system, is composed of mostly HW accelerators, which handles most
tasks autonomously. This yields several advantages, most notable ones being:
·
Cortex core processing is free to execute/run application code.
·
Lower power consumed. (dedicated HW modules)
·
Optimize data path reduce DDR load, allow use of 32-bit DDR Memories for the task.
IPU Image Processing Unit
·
Serve as Display controller to LCD / TV out devices.
·
Used for image manipulations / and processing
·
Manages Camera interface
·
