Patent number: 7328292Abstract: In an arbitration device, the entire transfer efficiency is improved without increasing the operating frequency and the number of pins. An overflow monitor mechanism generates an alarm once detecting a danger of occurrence of an overflow in an internal buffer group. An arbiter dynamically changes the priority order of arbitration once receiving the alarm from the overflow monitor mechanism and gives priority to processing of a request from a buffer having a danger of occurrence of an overflow.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2006Date of Patent: February 5, 2008Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventor: Tomoki Nishikawa

Publication number: 20050078675Abstract: A data sequence of PES (packetized elementary stream) format included in received TS (transport stream) format data is recognized in a TD (transport decoder) by detecting a PES header based on a TS header and TS data. In PES mode, information indicative of the place in the data sequence where the detected PES header exists in PES data is transmitted from the TD to an AVD (AV decoder) together with the PES header. In ES mode, the detected PES header is removed in the TD, the received TS data is converted to ES format data, and the ES format data is transmitted to the AV decoder.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2004Publication date: April 14, 2005Inventors: Tomoki Nishikawa, Kotaro Esaki
