  • Cache memory data compression and decompression
    Patent number: 9292449
    Abstract: A cache memory data compression and decompression technique is described. A processor device includes a memory controller unit (MCU) coupled to a main memory and a cache memory. The MCU includes a cache memory data compression and decompression module that compresses data received from the main memory. The compressed data may then be stored in the cache memory. The cache memory data compression and decompression module may also decompress data that is stored in the cache memory. For example, in response to a cache hit for data requested by a processor, the compressed data in the cache memory may be decompressed and subsequently read or operated upon by the processor.
