Abstract :
A design for a chip to perform binary and binary morphological operations is provided. The chip is intended to be a part of a pipeline machine controlled by a general purpose processor. It could process 25512×512 pixel frames per second in one pixel per clock cycle rate. In real time application an array of this chip could be used, leading to a less expensive design than using an array of general DSP chips. The functionality of the chip is programmable by changing the flow of data between the internal units using a multiplexer and demultiplexer set. A 15-bit control register is used to set the flow path and consequently the operation
