Abstract
A texture cache architecture includes a first texture cache to store compressed texel data and a second texture cache to store decompressed texel data. A controller schedules accesses to access texel data from the first or second texture cache. The second texture cache permits decompressed texel data to be reused for more than one texel access request.
