Full HD Toshiba Video Sensor Platform with Automotive Grade Arm Zynq on TE0720-03-1QF SoM on TE0701-05 Carrier
Key features
Video processing in automotive applications require processors capable to operate in extended temperature range. This application note describes HW platform performing edge detection and motion detection video processing for Toshiba colour video sensor with fixed Full HD resolution (1920x1080p60) with processing performed by Xilinx Zynq automotive xa7z020-1Q located on the TE0720-02-1QF SoM from Trenz.
Arm Cortex A9 processor of Xilinx Zynq part xa7z020-1Q is performing initialisation and synchronisation of the video processing chain. Program and the FPGA image is downloaded to the board from the Xilinx SDK 2015.4 via USB JTAG to the 1GB DDR3 located on the Zynq system on module. System can be also started directly from the SD card. Arm processor initiates the IP cores in the programmable logic (PL) part of the Zynq part xa7z020-1Q. It also initiates the Toshiba video sensor and the HDMI video output to monitor with fixed Full HD resolution (1920x1080p60).
- Raw video data are provided by the Toshiba video sensor.
- Data are processed into the YCrCb 16 bit per pixel format and stored by Video DMA (VDMA) to input video frame buffers (VFBs) defined in the DDR3.
- HW DMA controller(s) send data from the input VFBs to the processing accelerators in PL.
- Another DMA controller(s) send processed data from HW to the output VFBs in DDR3.
- Second part of the VDMA is sending data to the HDMI display with resolution 1280x1024p60.
