Abstract :
In this paper, we present an analog chip for real-time image processing. The chip implements the basic filtering module of an analog VLSI architecture which is highly modular and programmable; its behaviour is based on a simple pipeline scheme. The chip has been manufactured, in a 1.5¿m CMOS technology, and tested: experimental results are reported.
