Abstract
A bit-plane processor reads out a code block, which serves as a unit for arithmetic coding, from an SRAM. After converting the code block to the form of a bit-plane, the bit-plane processor supplies bit data to a pass processor. The pass processor includes an s pass processor, an r pass processor and a c pass processor. Each of s pass, r pass and c pass processings are executed in parallel in a state such that start time thereof is shifted by a predetermined unit time by operation of two delay units.
