About the Tone Mapping Operator IP
You can configure the required number of bits per symbols, symbols per pixel, and pixels in parallel. Typical applications include:
- Medical imaging
- Machine vision
- Video conferencing
- Surveillance
- Automotive imaging
You provide and receive video data to the TMO IP in RGB format via the AXI4-Stream video interfaces. The IP determines the size of the video busses from the number of pixels processed per clock cycle, the color bit depth, and the number of component streams parameters. The number of video component streams is fixed at 3. The IP supports:
- Component bit depths of 8, 10 and 12-bit.
- Pixels per clock of 1, 2 and 4.
You control the strength of the contrast enhancement for the output images provided by the TMO IP via an Avalon memory-mapped control interface. The data bus for the control interface is set to 32-bit to interface with an embedded CPU. During operation, you can configure the TMO IP using a software driver that controls all the IP parameters via a set of software APIs .
The TMO IP supports RGB sampling. The sampling method at the output is always the same as the input. You must provide details of the current standard video resolution via the CPU control interface to ensure correct behavior. the IP only supports 4:4:4 progressive sampling. You should prerform any deinterlacing and chroma up or down sampling externally to the TMO IP.
