written into the non-local memory. Claim 8 is illustrative of
the claimed invention, and it reads as follows:
8. A compressed data processing module comprises:
memory interface operably coupled to receive components of
the compressed data from a non-local memory;
packet processing module operably coupled to the memory
interface, wherein the packet processing module retrieves the
components from the non-local memory via the memory interface at
a rate independent of a rate in which the components were written
into the non-local memory;
data processing module operably coupled to the packet
processing module, wherein the data processing module receives
the retrieved components from the packet processing module and
produces therefrom representations of uncompressed data;
pipeline processing module operably coupled to receive
motion vector data and the representations of the uncompressed
data and to produce therefrom the uncompressed data, wherein the
motion vector data is one of the components; and
frame buffer operably coupled to store the uncompressed
data.
