Then the configuration of the ZYNQ development board is realized, and the core idea is to use a soft core logic circuit of the FPGA to receive signals, store the signals and process the signals. In the embodiment, an AXI4 protocol is used for communication between PL and PS end in ZYNQ, wherein the AXI4_lite protocol is simple, occupies less resources at low speed, and is used for instruction communication in address mapping; the axi4_stream protocol occupies a lot of resources at high speed and is commonly used for big data storage. All the soft cores are connected with an AXI_GP interface of ZYNQ_PS through an AXI4_lite bus in the FPGA, and receive configuration information from a PS end core ARMMCU. The RGB signals and control signals decoded by SIL9013 are transmitted into a video_in module in the FPGA.

The vdma_in module processes the transmitted signal into fewer bit widths: 16 bits, and stores one or more frames of pixel data into DDR3 designated addresses through an AXI_HP interface of a PS end.
Next, the generation of the synchronization signal is awaited, where the data stream is split into two directions, one for controlling the liquid crystal display portion of the display device and the other for controlling the backlight partition modulation of the display device. In a first aspect, the vdma_out module reads pixel data of bit width 16 from the DDR3 specified frame and processes the data into 24-bit axi4_stream format for transmission to the video_out module. At the same time, the video_timing_controller module generates timing information required by an output terminal and transmits the timing information to the video_out module. The video_out module processes the data into pixel data RGB [23:0], the control signal is transmitted to the HDMI output coding chip, and the pixel data RGB is converted into TMDS signals after being coded and transmitted to a liquid crystal display picture of the display device through the HDMI output interface. On the other hand, the data of the same frame of picture in the DDR3 designated address is transmitted to a backlight partition chip of the display device through the SPI controller after being subjected to image processing.
And finally, the circuit connection of the backlight partition dimming chip is realized. Firstly, the chip selects MAX25500, 4 column scanning channels and 24 row scanning channels are provided, and 96 dimming partitions can be regulated and controlled under full load. For 26 x 10 partitions in this embodiment, three backlight partition dimming chips are used, the connection between the chips adopts a daisy chain form, that is, the SDI end of the SPI controller at the ZYNQ end is only connected to the SDI interface of the first chip, the SDO interface of the chip is connected to the SDI interface of the next chip, and so on, the SDO interface of the last chip returns to the SPI controller of the ZYNQ to complete the complete SPI timing sequence. The chip and the LEDs are interconnected in a common anode mode, the anode of each LED is connected with the row scanning channel and the power supply, the cathode of each LED is connected with the row scanning channel and the ground, and the actual current value of each LED in each partition is controlled by a signal transmitted by the SPI controller.
