Abstract
The large circuit scale problem is avoided by applying a systematic algorithm for both enlargement and reduction. A resolution conversion unit for converting the resolution of an input video signal with a magnification of M/N is provided with a storage part for storing the arithmetic result, an arithmetic part having an adding part for adding a positive integer M to an output of the storage part and a subtracting part for subtracting a positive integer N from the output of the storage part, a memory part for temporarily storing a video signal, a memory control part for generating a reading and/or writing control signal based on an output supplied from the arithmetic part, and a pixel value arithmetic part for calculating an output pixel value corresponding to a pixel value included in an input video signal based on an output supplied from the arithmetic part.
