Abstract
It is assumed that the image data inputted are subjected to run-length compression and compressed encoding based on Huffman encoding. The first step configuration configured on a reconfigurable circuit includes run-length compression circuitsandof two ways for parallel processing and FIFOsandwhich hold the output data from the circuits, respectively. For example, the data of odd pages are supplied to the run-length compression circuitand the data of even pages are supplied to the run-length compression circuit. After the compression processing proceeds, when at least one of the FIFOsandbecomes full, the reconfigurable circuit is reconfigured into the second step configuration. In this configuration, the FIFOsandholding the compression results are left and two Huffman encoding circuits for encoding the data supplied from these FIFOs are included.
