Semiconductors for Ultrasound Slide 18

The software framework used in the previous demo is shown on this slide. The ARM Cortex-A8 runs a control, acquisition, process, and display thread. It essentially acquires the pre-scanned converted image from storage in the demo from an SD card and does a remote procedure call to the DSP shown in the lower portion of the block diagram. The DSP’s algorithm server then implements the scan conversion and passes the image back to the ARM. The ARM MPU’s display thread then routes the data to a display subsystem on the OMAP for display. This software framework is available to customers on the TI website now.
