An adaptive equalizer according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: an adaptive filter; and a control unit. The adaptive filter performs an adaptive equalization processing for an input signal modulated by a modulation method that produces a demodulated signal with constant amplitude characteristics so as to make an amplitude of an equalized output signal constant. The control unit controls stop and execution of the adaptive equalization processing of the adaptive filter in accordance with characteristics of at least one of the input signal and the output signal.

In a motion vector estimating apparatus, a current picture storage unit stores image data of a current picture, and a reference-picture storage unit stores image data of a reference picture. A search window determining unit determines estimation history from previously estimated motion vectors, and determines a search window based on the estimation history. At least one of a shape, size and position of the search window is determined based on the estimation history. The search window is composed of rectangular reference regions. A block matching circuit for performing a block matching process to a current block and each of reference blocks of the search window to determine a motion vector. The search window may be limited in units of pixels, or a load of the apparatus, a power supply voltage or a temperature of the block matching circuit.

A moving picture coding and decoding circuit which can cope with a plurality of algorithms to reduce the number of components and facilitate extension. A picture to be coded is inputted to a motion detection/prediction section, which outputs a predictive difference signal and a predictive signal. DCT processing and quantization are performed for the predictive difference signal by a conversion coding and decoding section, from which a conversion coefficient signal is outputted to an interface bus. The conversion coding and decoding section also executes dequantization and inverse DCT processing of the conversion coefficient, adds the predictive signal to the conversion coefficient and outputs a result of the picture coding to an image data bus. A programmable architecture as in a digital signal processor is applied to the conversion coding and decoding section. The conversion coefficient outputted from the conversion coding and decoding section is stored into a FIFO memory of a zigzag scan/entropy coding section and then undergoes coding in an entropy coding section. A bit stream thus coded is stored once into and then outputted as codes from another FIFO memory.

A nesting management mechanism for use in a loop controlling system, comprises a program counter coupled to a program counter bus and incremented each time one instruction is executed, and a loop counter coupled with the program counter bus and set with the number of loops to be executed when a loop execution is executed. The loop counter is decremented each time one loop is completed. A loop start address register is coupled to the program counter bus and set with a loop start address when the loop execution is executed, and a loop end address register is coupled to the program counter bus and set with a loop end address when the loop execution is executed. First, second and third independent hardware stacks of a first-in last-out type are provided for the loop counter, the loop start address register, and the loop end address register, respectively, so as to save respective contents of the loop counter, the loop start address register, and the loop end address register at the time of a loop nesting.

A processor capable of processing a variable word length instruction has a program counter controlled to indicate the head of an instruction by the value of the program counter. There are provided an adder for summing the length of decoded portions in the variable word length instruction in accordance with the progress of the instruction decoding, and another adder for adding the length of the decoded instruction portions to the program counter so as to update the program counter. Further, there is provided a circuit for calculating an operand effective address by using the value of the program counter in the course of the variable word length instruction decoding. Thus, the updating of the program counter and the generation of the effective address are concurrently executed.

Disclosed is a sampling rate conversion apparatus for converting first data, sampled at a first sampling rate, into second data, sampled at a second sampling rate, includes a FIFO for storing the first data responsive to a first clock signal and for outputting the first data as second data responsive to the second clock signal. This FIFO stores the first data based on a write control signal indicating whether or not the first data written directly previously is to be updated to the first data, and outputs the second data read out based on a read control signal indicating whether or not the second data as read out is to be read out during the next time interval as well. The sampling rate conversion apparatus also includes a frequency detection unit for measuring the first clock signal during the current time interval to generate the value of the first current clock frequency, generating the value of a current predicted clock frequency from the value of the first current clock frequency and the value of the directly previously predicted clock frequency and for using the value of the current predicted clock frequency as the directly previously predicted clock frequency during the next time interval, and a calculating unit supplied with the first data to output the data to the FIFO. The calculating unit generates write control signal and read control signal from the value of a second current frequency, generated by measuring the second clock signal during the current time interval, and from the value of the current predicted clock frequency, to output the so generated write and read control signal to the FIFO.
