ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a lossless 4-point Hadamard transform circuit which can minimize the number of times of addition/subtraction calculations, and reduce the number of times of round processing required to convert data including a fractional part into an integer. To this end, a DC coefficient generating unit summates four input data, and shifts the summation result 1 bit to the right to halve the summation result and to round the halved result by truncating a fractional part of the result. This 1-bit shift right result is output as a DC coefficient. An intermediate data generating unit generates, as intermediate value, a difference value between one input data of the four input data and the DC coefficient obtained by the DC coefficient generating unit. An AC coefficient generating unit generates three AC coefficients by adding the intermediate data generated by the intermediate data generating unit to other three input data.
