Custom FPGA configurations to offload and accelerate image-processing functions
Used in combination with Xilinx Vivado Design suite, the Matrox FDK supports the development of custom FPGA configurations that relieve the host system of intensive image-processing functions.
Within the Matrox FDK, Matrox Imaging provides a library of ready-made FPGA design components. The FDK also works in tandem with the Xilinx IP library, delivering more than 50 image-processing functions and associated source code to streamline application development. With the aid of Xilinx Vivado’s high-level synthesis (HLS) tool, components from either or both libraries compile quickly into compatible building blocks useable within the Matrox FDK.
Using C and C++ languages, the Vilvado HLS enables highly iterative, software-oriented design methods for quick development of FPGA hardware modules from C/C++ source code. This allows developers to utilize FPGA design components without the burden of generating the peripheral logic. The Matrox FDK will be available in Q1 2019.
