  • Patent number: 9456256
    Abstract: A routing circuit and a circuit having the routing circuit are provided. The circuit includes a plurality of integrated circuits (ICs), a plurality of signal terminals and the routing circuit. Each of the ICs has a plurality of signal channels. The routing circuit is coupled between the ICs and the signal terminals to route the signal channels to the signal terminals. The routing circuit has a plurality of sequencers and a processing circuit. Each of the sequencers is configured to reconfigure an arrangement sequence of the signal channels of a corresponding one of the ICs. The processing circuit is coupled to the sequencers and has a first distributor. The first distributor routes the signal channels to the signal terminals in a group manner based on the arrangement sequences of the signal channels reconfigured by the sequencers according to a control signal.

  • Patent number: 8139086
    Abstract: The invention provides an image processing method. An image is provided, and the image is divided into a first subimage, a second subimage, a third subimage, and a fourth subimage according to a decomposing method. Next, the first, second, third, and fourth subimages are processed to generate a first subframe, a second subframe, a third subframe, and a fourth subframe. Finally, the first, second, third, and fourth subframes are combined as a frame according to a composing method corresponding to the decomposing method.

  • Patent number: 8130232
    Abstract: A drawing control method, a drawing control apparatus, and a drawing control system for embedded system are provided. The present invention adopts an independent drawing control apparatus to control a drawing unit to draw a frame, and move the drawn frame to an external frame buffer in advance, and therefore the number of lines that can be drawn is not restricted by the capacity of the memory of the drawing unit. Further, the present invention employs a counter to accumulate a counting number upon each time completion of drawing frame or moving frame. Whenever the counting number is accumulated, the drawing unit is controlled to perform a next stage of frame drawing or frame moving. In this concern, the present invention eliminates the time for external accessing, and thus achieving parallel processing, and instant displaying.
