Introduction to TILER
2.2.2.1.1 Need for a TILER
Image processing algorithms like H.264 encode and decode, which works on the principle of spatial
locality, access the image data in two-dimensional format, for example, 16 pixels wide by 16 pixels high. If
the image is stored in the memory in linear format then it would appear as in
. Thus, to access
the macroblock, multiple memory accesses would need to be made. In the device, each memory access
can be up to 128 bytes large. However, because macroblock is not stored contiguously in the memory,
only partial pixels is useful in each memory access and the rest is discarded and a new access is
generated to fetch rest of the data.
Figure 2-12. Image Stored in the Memory Linearly
Instead, if the image is stored in bi-dimensional format, much fewer accesses are needed to read the
entire macroblock of data, which directly transforms into several advantages:
1. Faster processing of algorithms.
2. Fewer SDRAM page opens.
3. Lesser wastage of memory bandwidth in the system.
This concept is the primary motive for storing the image data in the tiled format.
