The SIMCOP subsystem is designed to process image data. SIMCOP is a macroblock-based memory-to-memory processing engine. It fetches macroblocks from system memory and stores them into local memories. Different accelerators take the fetched data, perform processing, and send the processing outcome back to local memories. From there the data could be further processed by other accelerators or sent back to system memory. The SIMCOP needs an external central processing unit (CPU) to perform high-level control tasks and configurations.
Figure 9-174 shows a block diagram of the SIMCOP subsystem.
