Patent number: 6600492Abstract: In order to assure that a plurality of circuits such as a CPU I/F circuit, a rendering circuit, a video input circuit and a display circuit, which are each required to always complete a processing within a prescribed time, are each assured the ability to make as many accesses to a memory as required to complete the processing within the prescribed time, it is necessary to arbitrate a contention for an access to the memory through an internal bus among the circuits by employing a bus control circuit wherein priority levels assigned to the circuits to make an access to the internal bus are dynamically changed by comparing degrees of access urgency among the circuits. In this way, circuits that each have to always complete theirs processing within a prescribed time are assured the ability to make as many accesses to the memory as required to complete the processing within the prescribed time even if a plurality of such circuits do exist.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 1999Date of Patent: July 29, 2003Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Tetsuya Shimomura, Shigeru Matsuo, Kazuyoshi Koga, Koyo Katsura, Yasuhiro Nakatsuka, Kazushige Yamagishi

Patent number: 6266072Abstract: A graphics system which accelerates generation of pixels including transparent objects by simply adding more rendering devices. The system has composition means and a plurality of rendering devices each comprising a geometric processor, a rendering processor and a frame memory that holds color, depth and weight data in a screen bit map format. Given a plurality of sets of color, depth and weight data about any one pixel position from the frame memories, the composition means first compares the depth data, and multiplies successively the weight and color data starting with those corresponding to the depth data closest to the foreground, thereby generating new pixel data. The system thus permits merging of transparent objects.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 1997Date of Patent: July 24, 2001Assignee: Hitachi, LTDInventors: Kazuyoshi Koga, Ryo Fujita, Koyo Katsura, Katsunori Suzuki, Toshiyuki Kuwana
