Abstract
An image processing device for use with a storage circuit processes image data for a frame formed by a plurality of pixels. The image processing device includes a first functional macro performing first image processing on the image data, generating first processed image data, and temporarily storing the first processed image in a predetermined region of the storage circuit. A second functional macro performs second image processing following the first image processing. The second functional macro reads the first processed image data from the predetermined region of the storage circuit, performs the second image processing on the first processed image data, and generates second processed image data. A monitor circuit, arranged in the first or second functional macro, monitors a frame processed by the other one of the functional macros and a number of a data line in the frame that is being processed.
