SIGC6678

Signalogic 32-core C6678 accelerator

SIGC6678-64

Signalogic 64-core C6678 accelerator

Note that it's also possible to run the CIM pre-processor from an arbitrary location, for example:

cimpp -s/root/Signalogic_2012v4/CIM/apps/test_demo/ffmpeg_demo/ -px86
-ati66x -cSIGC66XX file1.c file2.c

4.6.2 h264_encode demo

To run the CIM software h264_encode demo, first cd (change directory) to the h264_encode
folder:

cd /root/Signalogic_2014v5/CIM/apps/test_demo/h264_encode

Then enter

cimpp -px86 -ati66x -cSIGC66XX h264_encode.c

cimpp.sh -px86 -ati66x -cSIGC66XX h264_encode.c

h264_encode CIM Build Description

Figures 4-37a-c below show expected output during the CIM build process for h264_encode.
