Abstract

A device for processing video and graphics data includes a component and a main random access memory containing video and graphics data. The component includes a processing unit, and a two-dimensional acceleration unit cooperating with the processing unit and the main random access memory to compose in real time images. The images include at least one video plane and at least one graphics plane, and are stored in the main random access memory. An output interface extracts the image data thus composed from the main random access memory for delivery to an image display.
