Abstract :
In this paper, the authors present a high performance and low power hardware architecture of entropy coder for H.264/AVC baseline. The authors implemented the architecture with SYNOPSYS design compiler and SMIC 0.13mum cell library. The result shows that the design need less area than the prior work and it can work at frequency 250Hz. In the worst case, it needs 1095 circles to code a macro block and can process 2306 QCIF (176times144) frames per second
