Abstract

A system for processing multiple images includes an access serializer, trigger controllers, a first-in-first-out (FIFO) memory, and an image signal processing (ISP) pipeline circuit. The access serializer serializes access requests that are associated with processing of input image lines of the images. The trigger controllers decode corresponding serialized access requests to generate trigger identifiers (IDs), respectively. The FIFO memory receives a corresponding trigger ID from each trigger controller and provides the trigger IDs to the ISP pipeline circuit based on an order of reception of the trigger IDs. The ISP pipeline circuit receives the input image lines associated with the trigger IDs, and based on a corresponding set of configuration parameters associated with the input image lines, processes the input image lines in an order of reception of the trigger IDs, to generate processed image lines, respectively.
