Abstract
A high speed variable length code (VLC) decoder for decoding in real time data encoded in a system such as MPEG 1, MPEG 2 or HDTV (high definition television) includes a bit stream buffer, a data buffer, a pair of latch units, a pair of selectors, a barrel shifter, a VLC table random logic, an output buffer, an accumulator, and a VLC decoder controller. The VLC decoder controller appropriately controls data flow in the VLC decoder, by using a bit empty signal from the bit stream signal, a data empty signal from the data buffer, a data full signal from the output buffer and a carry signal from the accumulator.
