Abstract

The paper describes a new chip for image processing, the SCPC1 (Silicon Compiler Pyramidal Chip) as an example of application of a very innovative CAD tool: a silicon compiler. The new chip is the result of a restructuring of a typical pyramidal architecture previously realized in a more conventional way (see Section I.) The restructuring aim is the creation of a more flexible and modular system exploiting the most important capabilities of a silicon compiler, described in Section II. Section III deals with some relevant problems and solutions related to the application of silicon compilation to ASIC, taking as example the realization of SCPC1.
