The SCP2200 family of image cognition processors (ICPs) is designed to enable programmable intelligent imaging and video applications for automotive vision systems. Powered by CogniVue APEX™ programmable technology, the SCP2200 family is the first in a series of ICPs offering a unique combination of high performance, low power and small footprint.

The SCP2200 ICP family utilizes the ARM926EJ™ core as the main RISC processor and runs at a frequency of 350 MHz. Image cognition processing is handled by the APEX array—a fully programmable low-power SIMD subsystem using a massively parallel array processor unit (APU), a second ARM926™ processor running at 350 MHz, hardware acceleration blocks, wide-bandwidth stream DMAs and internal dual 64-bit AXI data buses to/from all blocks for computationally intensive applications. The SCP2200 family also supports video encode/decode at up to D1 (720 x 480) at 30 fps.

SCP2200 is a fully programmable solution and enabled by a comprehensive software suite for image cognition processing applications (ICP SDK). A wide range of video codecs is supported, including MPEG-4 and h.264. The fully programmable APEX core technology and common API will enable support of new emerging standards and proprietary algorithms with simple firmware changes.

The SCP2200 parallel ICP architecture enables concurrent processing of image data translating into high performance at a lower clock frequency than competitive solutions while the revolutionary data movement architecture enables high-bandwidth image data processing at very low power.
