In order to satisfy the requirement of miniature and low-power dissipation for the array CCD in the applications of traffic and surveillance
an image acquisition system based on array CCD with FPGA/SOPC architecture is designed. This system includes FPGA as the controlling module to collect the Video signal
build-in NiosⅡ microcomputer control unit (MCU) as the image processing unit
and C/OS-Ⅱ operating system as the manager of multiple tasks. This system extends universally and satisfies the requirement of miniature and low-power dissipation.
