Abstract
A coding data is performed in decoding by a stream decoding circuit, an IDCT circuit and an MC circuit. An AGU stores decoding data from the MC circuit to a memory. Regarding the decoding data of a B picture, the AGU writes only the decoding data which are necessary for image display, to a B picture region. Thus, a room occurs in a memory capacity. It is possible to hold the decoding data of the B picture through 2 field periods of time. It is possible to read twice the same decoding data, for display processing. Thus, frame interpolation processing is made possible, and it is possible to obtain a magnified image having high image quality.
