Abstract
An apparatus includes a first memory interface circuit and a decompression circuit coupled to the first memory interface circuit. The decompression circuit may be configured to (i) receive a reduced size representation of a coding block of data comprising a first bit map, a second bit map, and zero or more non-zero values from an external memory via the first memory interface circuit, (ii) losslessly restore the coding block of data from the reduced size representation of the coding block using the first bit map, the second bit map, and the zero or more non-zero values, and (iii) transfer the restored coding block of data to a processing circuit.
