Abstract

A design of MPEG-2 and H.264/AVC video decoder is demonstrated in a 0.18mum CMOS (Tsu-Ming Liu, 2006). The key design issues involved in this advanced IC are discussed, including improving area and power efficiency. Power dissipation is greatly lowered through the architectural exploration. Measurement results show that MPEG-2 and H.264/AVC real-time decoding of QCIF@15fps are achieved at 1.15MHz with power dissipation of 108muW and 125muW respectively at 1V supply voltage
