A high performance micro channel interface for image processing applications

This document describes the design and construction of a high performance Micro Channel interface. The interface collects image data from a color linescan camera and transfers this data into the Micro Channel system memory. A maximum data transfer rate of 20 Mbytes/sec can be achieved using the camera interface. Programmability is offered in features such as collected field-of-view, data format, collection method, and camera control. A DOS device driver is developed for the collection of camera images. The final design is constructed to collect images intended for real-time image processing by Micro Channel resident processor(s).
