Patent ID: 8885053

Claim:
An integrated circuit for processing image data, said integrated circuit comprising: a bus; a first memory connected to said bus; a first processing unit connected to said bus, said first processing unit being configured to access said first memory via said bus; a second processing unit connected to said bus, said second processing unit being configured to access said first memory via said bus; and a second memory not connected to said bus and directly connected to said second processing unit, said second memory being configured to be accessed by said second processing unit without passing through said bus, wherein said first processing unit de-multiplexes an inputted bit stream into an audio signal and a video signal to transmit the de-multiplexed video signal to said second processing unit via said first memory, and wherein said first processing unit expands the de-multiplexed audio signal using said first memory, and at the same time said second processing unit expands the de-multiplexed video signal using said second memory.
