10 years agoHi Korn,
Thank you for this helpful reply. Yes, I'm inserting pixel-processing components into a video pipeline. The new components must respect the VIP streaming protocol so that they'll interoperate correctly with VIP suite cores. One way or another, we're required to implement a state machine to keep track of what just came in on din_data. Indeed, checking the low-order nibble when SOP is asserted, as you suggest, is essential. I'm wrestling with a simplest such state machine. Since every single IP core to be connected to a VIP suite core requires this logic, I'm surprised that there is no example in the VIP Suite User Guide or on the forum. Maybe I'm just missing it?
