The internal convolver sums, in each of the devices in
the next row, must be delayed by this amount before they are
added to results from the previous row. This is more conven-
ientlyachievedbydelayingdatagoingintothelinestores. The

of devices are needed.
Two bits in Control Register D are used to define one
of four delay options. These delays have been selected to
support systems needing from two to eight devices and are
described in the applications section.

Sixty-four coefficients are stored internally and must
be initially loaded from an external source. Table 3 gives the
coefficient addresses within a device, with coefficent C0
specified by the least significant address and C63 by the most
significant address. Table 5 shows the physical window posi-
tion within the device which is allocated to each coefficient in
the various modes of operation. Horizontally the coefficient
positions correspond to the convolution process as if it were
conceptually observed on a viewing screen, ie the left hand
pixel is multiplied with C0. In the vertical direction the lines of
coefficients are inverted with respect to a visual screen, ie the
line starting with C0 is actually at the bottom of the visualized
window.

The coefficients may be provided from a Host CPU
using conventional addressing, a read/write line, data strobe,
and a chip enable. Alternatively, in stand alone systems, an
EPROM may be used. A single EPROM can support up to 16
devices with no additional hardware.

configurations when the gain control is used. These delays
are the the internal processing delays and do not include the
delays needed to move a given size window completely into
a field of interest. When multiple devices are needed, addi-
tional delays are produced which must be calculated for the
particular application. These delays are discussed in the
applications section.
TOTAL PIPELINE DELAY
The PDSP16488A contains facilities for outputing a
delayed version of HRES to match any processing delay.
Control register bits allow this delay to be selected from any
value between 29 and 92 pixel clocks.
The total pipeline delay is dependent on the device
configuration and the number of devices in the system. Table
4 gives the delays obtained with the various single device
