Abstract

A video processing system may include: a video deserializer having (i) an input for receiving a serial data stream containing video data and (ii) a serial to pseudo-parallel converter, coupled to the serial data stream, for generating from the serial data stream a plurality of serial data output streams through a plurality of serial output lanes; a video serializer having (i) a plurality of inputs for receiving serial data streams and (ii) a pseudo-parallel to serial converter, coupled to the plurality of input serial data streams, for generating a single serial data stream from the plurality of input serial data streams; and a programmable video processing device, coupled to the video deserializer and the video serializer, and having a plurality of interface pins for receiving the plurality of serial output lanes from the deserializer and for transmitting the plurality of serial data streams to the serializer.
