Abstract: A video hardware engine which support dynamic frame padding is disclosed. The video hardware engine includes an external memory. The external memory stores a reference frame. The reference frame includes a plurality of reference pixels. A motion estimation (ME) engine receives a current LCU (largest coding unit), and defines a search area around the current LCU for motion estimation. The ME engine receives a set of reference pixels corresponding to the current LCU. The set of reference pixels of the plurality of reference pixels are received from the external memory. The ME engine pads a set of duplicate pixels along an edge of the reference frame when a part area of the search area is outside the reference frame.

Abstract: Information communication circuitry, including a first integrated circuit for coupling to a second integrated circuit in a package on package configuration. The first integrated circuit comprises processing circuitry for communicating information bits, and the information bits comprise data bits and error correction bits, where the error correction bits are for indicating whether data bits are received correctly. The second integrated circuit comprises a memory for receiving and storing at least some of the information bits. The information communication circuitry also includes interfacing circuitry for selectively communicating, along a number of conductors, between the package on package configuration. In a first instance, the interfacing circuitry selectively communicates only data bits along the number of conductors.
