Abstract:
1. An inverse quantizer apparatus for processing macroblocks of data, the apparatus having modular operation elements that can be selectably invoked to accommodate different coding standards, the apparatus comprising: a memory area having table entries corresponding to the modular operation elements; a modular operation including a decoder device, whereby the decoder device is selectably invoked via accessing the associated decoder device table entry; a modular operation including an inverse scan device, whereby the scan device is selectably invoked via accessing the associated scan device table entry; a modular operation, including a de-quantizer device, wherein the de-quantizer device is selectably invoked via accessing the associated de-quantizer device table entry; and at least one modular operation, including a processing operation that can be invoked between other modular operations, where the processing operation is selectably invoked via accessing the associated processing operation table entry.
