  • Method and apparatus for buffering output pixel data of a joint photographic experts group image
    Patent number: 8064709
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for buffering output pixel data of a Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) image. First, a storing rule is determined for storing a scaled minimum coded unit (MCU) of the JPEG image in a memory module, wherein the scaled MCU comprises a plurality of pixels. A memory is then selected from the memory module according to the storing rule for storing pixels of the scaled MCU. Finally, the pixels of the scaled MCU are then output from the memory module to a frame buffer.
