Abstract
An image coding apparatus includes a variable length coding section, an arithmetic coding section and a common buffer memory. The variable length coding section inputs image data and outputs a binarized code sequence applied with variable length coding. The arithmetic coding section applies arithmetic coding to the binarized code sequence outputted from the variable length coding section. The common buffer memory transmits and receives data between the variable length coding section and the arithmetic coding section.
