JPEG Library
by MultiDSP Inc.

Software Overview

MultiDSP's JPEG software is the fastest, most efficient, and easy-to-use C-language JPEG baseline 
library.  It contains the following features: RGB-to-YCbCr color transformation, forward discrete 
cosine transform, quantization, Huffman variable word length encoder, encoder and decoder 
C-callable library DLL functions. Both source and object codes are available. Special customer 
design such as TMS320C3x code is also available upon request.

Features and Benefits

•	Fastest C language JPEG baseline library supporting 8-bit grayscale and 24-bit color images
•	Fully compliant with the JPEG-8-R8 baseline specs
•	Three user-selectable quantization tables and data reduction transformation formats, 1:1:1, or 
2:1:1, or 4:1:1 for desired compression ratio
•	Interleaved and noninterleaved data formats

Processor and System Requirements

•	TMS320C3x

Usage Limitations or Performance Considerations

The estimated MIP rating presented requires the on-chip, zero-wait-state program and date memory. 
The picture is a 256 x 240 pixel image.
•	RGB Encoder: 9 MIP
•	RGB Decoder:  12 MIP
•	Data Memory: 0.5 kwords
•	RGB Encoder Program Memory: 2.5 kwords
•	RGB Decoder Program Memory: 6.5  kwords 

Algorithm Verification

MultiDSP's JPEG Library is validated through the following suite of tests:
•	MultiDSP's JPEG ImagePro encoder test
•	MultiDSP's JPEG ImagePro decoder test

Availability

•	MultiDSP's JPEG Library algorithms are available now.
