Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
The SRAM dead pixel processing method can be applied to a dead pixel management unit of a chip, and the dead pixel management unit can be an independent control device, such as a dead pixel manager; or may be a functional block in the system-on-chip. The dead pixel management unit can comprise an information register and a data register, and performs read-write operation on data content stored in the data register and corresponding to the SRAM dead pixel address according to an access request of a CPU or other peripheral IP.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, an SRAM bad pixel processing method is provided, which is described by taking the method as an example for being applied to the above-mentioned bad pixel management unit, and includes the following steps:
step S101, receiving an access address aiming at the SRAM obtained by the data access module.
The data Access module may be a CPU or a DMA (Direct Memory Access), and may be configured to acquire an Access address, which is input by a user and is directed to the SRAM. The access address may be an address corresponding to an address where the SRAM stores corresponding data content, and the SRAM may determine a position where data is read and written according to the access address. When the dead pixel address exists in the SRAM, the dead pixel management unit can determine a corresponding replacement storage address according to the dead pixel address so as to ensure that the data read-write operation of the SRAM is normally carried out.
In specific implementation, the data access module can send the access address of the user for the SRAM to the dead pixel management unit after acquiring the access address, and the dead pixel management unit can receive the access address of the data access module to obtain the access requirement of the user.
Step S102, the dead pixel address stored in the information register is obtained.
The CPU can perform scanning test on the SRAM in the process of leaving a factory or using the chip, and configures the scanned dead pixel address into a preset information register, and the dead pixel address in the information register can be updated at any time. In addition, the information register can also be used for storing the dead pixel address of the SRAM scanned by the CPU.
In a specific implementation, the dead pixel management unit can obtain a dead pixel address of the SRAM configured in the information register after being scanned by the CPU from the information register in the use process of the SRAM.
And step S103, matching the access address with each dead pixel address in the information register to obtain a target dead pixel address matched with the access address.
The access address obtained by the data access module usually corresponds to a storage address of the SRAM, and when the SRAM has a dead pixel, data reading from the dead pixel address cannot be performed. Therefore, the dead pixel management unit needs to match the obtained access address with each dead pixel address in the information register to determine whether the SRAM storage address corresponding to the access address is a dead pixel address. When the access address is matched with the dead pixel address, the dead pixel management unit can read and write corresponding data content from the replacement module corresponding to the dead pixel address. The replacement module may be a data register corresponding to the dead pixel address.
In a specific implementation, the dead pixel management unit may match the access address with each dead pixel address in the information register, and if the access address is the same as one of each dead pixel address in the information register, the same dead pixel address may be used as the target dead pixel address.
And step S104, acquiring a data register corresponding to the target dead pixel address, and reading and writing data content corresponding to the target dead pixel address from the data register.
The data registers can correspond to the dead pixel addresses, each dead pixel address can correspond to one data register, data contents corresponding to the SRAM dead pixel addresses can be stored in the data registers, and the number and the addresses of the data registers can be dynamically configured according to the dead pixel addresses. Therefore, the data register can be regarded as a replacement module of the SRAM dead point address, and the data content stored in the data register can be read and written. The bit width of the data register may not be limited, and may be consistent with the data bit width of a single address of the system SRAM.
In a specific implementation, the dead pixel management unit may determine the data register corresponding to the target dead pixel address according to a pre-configured corresponding relationship between the dead pixel address and the data register, and read and write data content corresponding to the target dead pixel address from the data register.
In the SRAM dead pixel processing method, the access address aiming at the SRAM, which is obtained by the data access module, is received and matched with the dead pixel address stored in the information register after being scanned by the CPU, so that a target dead pixel address matched with the access address is obtained, the data register corresponding to the target dead pixel address is obtained, and the corresponding data content is read and written from the data register. In the scheme, the dead pixel addresses scanned by the CPU are stored in the information register, and the corresponding data registers are configured for the respective dead pixel addresses in advance to store the data contents corresponding to the dead pixel addresses, so that the dead pixel conditions of the SRAM can be dynamically managed in the use process of the SRAM, the data contents of the SRAM corresponding to the dead pixel addresses are read and written through the data registers, the replacement operation of the dead pixels of the SRAM is realized, the efficiency of SRAM dead pixel management is improved, and the reliability of the SRAM is further improved.
In one embodiment, the method further comprises:
receiving a dead pixel address of the SRAM scanned by the CPU; storing the dead pixel address in an information register; and configuring a corresponding data register for each dead pixel address in the information register, and storing the configuration information.
In this embodiment, the data register is used to access the data content corresponding to the dead pixel address. The dead pixel management unit can receive the SRAM dead pixel address scanned by the CPU. The CPU can scan the SRAM dead pixel address when the chip leaves a factory or when the chip is used, so as to update the dead pixel address. The CPU can store the dead pixel address in the nonvolatile memory, and after the chip is powered on, the CPU can read the dead pixel address from the nonvolatile memory and send the dead pixel address to the dead pixel management unit. In some cases, the defect address may also be read from the nonvolatile memory by the DMA and sent to the defect management unit. The dead pixel management unit can store the dead pixel addresses in the information register, configure the corresponding data register according to each dead pixel address in the information register, and configure the data content stored in the SRAM corresponding to the dead pixel address into the corresponding data register. The configuration information may be a corresponding relationship between the dead pixel address and the data register, and data content stored in the SRAM corresponding to the dead pixel address. The data register is used for storing the dead point data, so that the storage space of the SRAM is not wasted, the problem that dead points also occur in a backup area caused by the traditional backup in the SRAM is solved, and meanwhile, a user can continuously access the storage space of the whole SRAM when the dead points exist in the SRAM.
In the scheme of the embodiment, the dead pixel management unit stores the dead pixel addresses in the information register by receiving the dead pixel addresses of the SRAM scanned by the CPU, configures corresponding data registers for the respective dead pixel addresses, and stores data contents corresponding to the dead pixel addresses, so that the dead pixel addresses have corresponding replacement modules, thereby improving the reliability of the SRAM.
In one embodiment, the tasks corresponding to the access addresses include a write task and a read task for the SRAM, and the step of reading and writing the data content corresponding to the target dead pixel address from the data register determined in step S104 includes:
if the task is confirmed to be a write-in task, writing the data content corresponding to the access address into a data register corresponding to the target dead pixel address; and if the task is determined to be a reading task, acquiring the data content corresponding to the target dead pixel address from the data register and returning the data content to the data access module.
In this embodiment, the access address sent by the data access module may include a write task and a read task for the SRAM, where the write task may be that a user writes corresponding data content into an SRAM storage address corresponding to the access address, and the read task may be that a user reads the data content stored in the address from the SRAM storage address corresponding to the access address. When the SRAM storage address is a dead pixel address, the dead pixel management unit can perform read-write operation of data content according to different tasks through a data register corresponding to the dead pixel address. Under the reading task, the dead pixel management unit can select the data content corresponding to the reading access address from the SRAM or the data register through the data selector, does not select when data are written, and selects through the data selector when data are read, so that the circuit structure of the chip can be simplified.
In some implementations, when the task corresponding to the access address is a write task, the dead pixel management unit may match the target dead pixel address according to the access address, determine a data register corresponding to the target dead pixel address, and write data content corresponding to the access address into the data register under the write task.
In some embodiments, when the task corresponding to the access address is a read task, the dead pixel management unit may match the target dead pixel address according to the access address, determine a data register corresponding to the target dead pixel address, acquire, through the data selector, data content corresponding to the target dead pixel address from the data register in the read task, and return the data content to the data access module.
In the above-mentioned embodiment, the dead pixel management unit determines the target dead pixel address corresponding to the access address according to the write task and the read task corresponding to the SRAM corresponding to the access address, and reads and writes the corresponding data content from the data register corresponding to the target dead pixel address, so that the dead pixel management unit can read and write from the data register when the SRAM has a dead pixel, thereby improving the reliability of the SRAM.
In one embodiment, after the step S103 determines to match the access address with each dead pixel address in the information register, and obtain a target dead pixel address matching the access address, the method further includes:
if the task corresponding to the access address is determined to be a writing task, acquiring data content corresponding to the access address; and writing the data content corresponding to the access address into the SRAM storage address corresponding to the access address.
In this embodiment, when the task corresponding to the access address is a write task, the dead pixel management unit may obtain data content corresponding to the access address, and write the data content into the SRAM storage address corresponding to the access address. That is, even if there is a SRAM dead pixel, the dead pixel manager can write the data content corresponding to the access address into the SRAM in a write task, so as to improve the fault tolerance of the SRAM dead pixel management.
In one embodiment, the method further comprises:
and if the information register does not contain the dead pixel address corresponding to the access address, reading and writing the data content corresponding to the access address from the SRAM.
In this embodiment, when the access address acquired by the dead pixel management unit does not have a corresponding dead pixel address in the information register, it indicates that the SRAM storage address corresponding to the access address is available, so that the dead pixel management unit can read and write data content corresponding to the access address according to the SRAM storage address corresponding to the access address. The step of reading and writing the corresponding data content from the SRAM by the dead pixel management unit may be the same as the step of reading the data content from a certain data register.
According to the scheme of the embodiment, under the condition that the access address is not matched with the corresponding dead pixel address, the dead pixel management unit can read and write the data content corresponding to the access address from the SRAM according to the access address, and the SRAM read and write efficiency and reliability can be improved by screening the dead pixel address of the SRAM.
In one embodiment, the data access module may include at least one of a CPU and a DMA. The SRAM can be read and written by the CPU, DMA or other peripheral IP. Therefore, the dead pixel management unit can perform read-write operation on the SRAM and the data register or perform read-write operation on the SRAM and the data register according to the access address acquired by the CPU, the DMA or other peripheral IP.

The steps are not performed in the exact order shown and described, and may be performed in other orders, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Moreover, at least a portion of the steps in fig. 1 may include multiple steps or multiple stages, which are not necessarily performed at the same time, but may be performed at different times, which are not necessarily performed in sequence, but may be performed in turn or alternately with other steps or at least a portion of the other steps or stages.
