Abstract
A high-performance parallel and pipelined architecture (MViP) has been proposed for MPEG-2 coding. A macrocell for use in an ASIC has been designed and implemented using ES2 0.7 μm dual-layer-metal CMOS technology. This macrocell consists of about 120,000 equivalent gates and is able to execute, in real time, the Loop of an MPEG-2 coder for main profile/main level (MP@ML) resolution when running at 40 MHz. MViP is made up of several specific-purpose units (SPUs), an RISC core processor, banks of internal memory and an optimized crossbar network which lets these pipelined SPUs and RISC core work in parallel at a macroblock-level-pipeline, greatly increasing silicon efficiency.
