Abstract
An image compression method and an image compressor are provided. The image compression method compresses the image data based on the fixed-length code (FLC) to generate the compressed data, and includes the following steps: determining whether a characteristic value of the image data meets a condition; encoding only the luminance component of the image data to generate the compressed data when the characteristic value meets the condition; encoding the luminance and chrominance components of the image data to generate the compressed data when the characteristic value does not meet the condition; and storing the compressed data.
