Abstract: The objective of the invention is to improve the processing efficiency of a system that repeatedly executes one instruction over multiple clock cycles. The SVP core 12 of this SVP (Scan-line Video Processor) 10 is made up of a three layer construction of the data input register (DIR) 16, the SIMD type digital signal processing unit 18, and the data output register (DOR) 20. The SIMD type digital signal processing unit 18 comprises a parallel arranged (connected) number of processing elements (PE0 to PEN−1) (for example, 864 units) equal to the number of pixels N on one horizontal scan line. The instruction generator (IG) 14, because the SVP core 12 operates as an SIMD parallel processor, internally houses a RAM or ROM program memory that holds the desired program.

Abstract: A memory interface device of the present invention includes: an input buffer including a plurality of input areas; an output buffer including a plurality of output areas; and a control section for controlling the input buffer, the output buffer and a single port memory. The control section controls the input buffer and the single port memory so as to transfer a signal stored in one of the input areas of the input buffer to the single port memory while storing an input signal in another one of the input areas of the input buffer. The control section controls the output buffer and the single port memory so as to output as an output signal a signal stored in one of the output areas of the output buffer while transferring a signal stored in the single port memory to another one of the output areas of the output buffer.
