ResumoThis paper presents the design, the validation and the prototyping of a H.264/AVC inverse transform and quantization architecture. This architecture was designed to reach high throughputs and to be easily integrated with other H.264/AVC modules. The architecture was completely described in VHDL and the VHDL code was behaviorally and post place-and-route validated through simulations, comparing the data generated by the architecture with the data extracted from the H.264/AVC reference software. Finally, the architecture was prototyped using a Digilent XUP V2P board that contains a Virtex-II Pro VP30 Xilinx FPGA. The architecture mapped to the target FPGA was stimulated in the prototyping board using a PowerPC processor that is hardwired in that FPGA. The prototype was validated and the results show that the designed architecture was working in accordance with the H.264/AVC standard. The post place-and-route synthesis results indicate that the global architecture is able to process 132 million of samples per second, allowing its use in H.264/AVC coders and decoders for HDTV.
