Summary:
In this paper, we discussed our implementation of CAM2 on FPGA. CAM2 has previously been used to conduct processes such as pixel level snake etc. CAM2 is implemented on FPGA, on which it can change its capacity and configuration and realize a low cost. The biggest difference between CAM2 on ASIC and on FPGA is the CAM cell. Simulations showed that the CAM2 on FPGA achieves approximately four times the frequency compared with on ASIC, and the capacity became one eighth. CAM2 implemented on FPGA has great potential as the accelerator of various CA-based processing.
