Abstract

In this paper we describe a VLSI implementation of a lossy image compression [1] algorithm given in [2]. The chip was designed using the full—custom VLSI CAD system ISIS and was performed in the hardware description language HDL of this system on transistor level [3, 4, 5]. The chip area is about 1 mm2 using a 2μ-CMOS technology.
