Description
The AT76C101 is an Image Compression/Decompression Processor that performs the JPEG Baseline Algorithm. The system is capable of high quality compression and decompression of continues-tone color or monochrome images. The AT76C101 performs the Discrete Cosine Transform, Quantization, and Entropy Encoding during the compression stage and carries out all inverse operations during the decompression phase. The AT76C101 uses an external SRAM as working memory, which is accessed by an onchip video interface.
