VP2615
H.261 Decoder
Supersedes January 1996 edition, DS3479 - 3.0
DS3479 - 4.0 June 1996
DESCRIPTION
The VP2615 decoder forms part of a chip set for use in
video conferencing and video telephony applications. It
conforms to the CCITT H261 standard, and will decode data
coded with full or quarter CIF resolution at frame rates up to 30
Hz.
It accepts run length coded coefficients which have already
been error corrected and Huffman decoded, and produces
multiplexed YUV data in macro block format after a pipeline
delay of two MacroBlocks. As shown in Figure 1, other devices
in the chip set then convert this data into full resolution,
component or composite, video.
The incoming run length coded data is converted to
individual coefficient values in the correct order. Data
reconstruction is then performed on a block by block basis by
multiplying the quantized coefficients with the original
quantization value, and then applying the inverse cosine
transform. In the inter frame mode this data is then added to
the motion compensated block from the previous frame. This
block can be passed through a low pass filter when required.
A frame store controller produces addresses which allow the
best fit block to be read from the frame store, and which also
allow the store to be updated with reconstructed data. Refresh
cycles are generated when necessary.
