Abstract
A processor system includes: an input data memory for storing a number of sets of predetermined input data to be processed, the input data including sets of original input data and sets of duplicate input data; a processing unit for generating a set of output data by processing each set of the input data, the processing unit generating sets of original output data from the sets of original input data; an output data memory for storing all sets of output data including the sets of original output data and sets of duplicate output data; an output data cache for storing the sets of the original output data output from the processing unit when the input data is detected as being the original input data; and a switching control unit for transferring the original output data stored in the output data cache into a location of the output data memory to store the duplicate output data, when the input data is detected as being the duplicate input data, and for transferring the original output data from the processing mean into a location of the output data memory to store the original output data, when the input data is detected as being the original input data.
