<p>A context-adaptive variable length coding (VLC) apparatus includes a coefficient information generation unit configured to generate coefficient information used for coding variable-length-code coefficients for a selected block of a selected macroblock of image data that is read out in response to an information generation control signal, a bit data generation unit configured to operate in response to a bit generation control signal, and to code coefficients of a previous block, which is read out just before the selected block, using coefficient information of the previous block, and a control unit configured to generate the information generation control signal and the bit generation control signal, and to cause the coefficient information generation unit and the bit data generation unit to operate at in parallel using the information generation control signal and the bit generation control signal. A method of variable-length coding coefficients of image data is also provided.</p> |
