摘要: In this paper, we propose an efficient memory sub-system and a constant-rate bumping process for a H.264/AVC decoder conforming to High profile@ Level 4. To efficiently utilize the throughput of external DRAM a synchronization buffer is employed as a bridge for reformatting the read/write data exchanged between the on-chip hardware and the off-chip DRAM In addition, we optimize the issues of read/write commands and adaptively enable the auto-precharge function by monitoring the motion information of a submacroblock. Furthermore, a regulation buffer with size comparable to the decoded picture buffer is created to ensure a constant output rate of decoded pictures for any conformed prediction structures. Along with other modules, the proposed scheme is verified at system level using transaction level modeling (TLM) technique. Statistical results show that synchronization buffer of larger block size provides higher memory efficiency, less access cycles and power dissipation. However, the granularity of 8x8 block size provides better trade-off among cost, efficiency, power, and real-time requirement.
