ABSTRACT:
A frame buffer cache is arranged to store part of image data in an image memory so that a CPU and a drawing processor can perform image data read/write operations by only accessing the frame buffer cache. Therefore, the image data read/write operations of the CPU and the drawing processor can be performed simultaneously with the access to a dual port image memory, thus improving the drawing performance of the CPU and the drawing processor.
