An image processor comprises first scaling logic that receives image data comprising a first number of lines and generates first scaled image data by scaling down the image data in a first direction, a rotation buffer that has storage capacity for storing a second number of lines less than the first number of lines and stores the first scaled image data in a rotated state, and second scaling logic that generates second scaled image data by scaling down the first scaled image data in a second direction different from the first direction.

Image processor, for scaling image data in two directions. Computing system comprising same, and related method of operation

A display controller includes a scaler which is configured to receive a frame image, scale up the frame image to generate a high resolution frame image based on a quality of the frame image and information about a display device, and output the frame image or the high resolution frame image to the display device for display. A method of controlling image display includes: receiving a frame image; determining whether to scale up the frame image to generate a high resolution frame image based on a quality of the frame image and information about a display device; scaling up the frame image according to a result of the determining; and outputting the frame image or the high resolution frame image for display at the display device.

Display controller and display system including the same

A reconfigurable image scaling circuit includes a horizontal scalar, a bufferer, and a vertical scalar. The horizontal scalar is configured to generate a horizontally scaled image data by scaling an input image data horizontally. The bufferer includes a mapper and a plurality of buffers. The plurality of the buffers are configured to store the horizontally scaled image data. The vertical scalar is configured to generate an output image data by scaling the horizontally scaled image vertically using a vertical scaling method.

Reconfigurable image scaling circuit

A system-on-chip (SoC) includes a slave intellectual property (IP) block, a master IP block, and an update control unit. The slave IP block is configured to perform first processing on first data based on first control information stored in a first storage unit. The master IP block is configured to perform second processing on second data in response to receiving a first processing result obtained by performing the first processing on the first data. Performing the second processing is based on second control information stored in a second storage unit. The update control unit is configured to determine an update time of the first control information or an update time of the second control information in response to performing the first processing and performing the second processing.
