Abstract
Disclosed is an improved discrete cosine transform processor comprising an input unit for receiving image data to be processed, a storage unit for previously storing a result of a multiplication and accumulation calculation effected beforehand with respect to image input data and transform matrix components so that the same value is read from the same read line; a decoding unit for selecting the read line, in which each bit value of the image input data composed of a plurality of bits serves as a piece of address data; an accumulation unit for accumulating the data read from the storage unit and an output unit for outputting a result of the accumulation processing as output data. The storage unit uses the common data in common when effecting the multiplication and accumulation calculation, and, hence, a storage capacity is reduced, thereby making it possible to decrease a chip area.
