SUMMARY In this paper, a low‐complexity and highly integrated IP Core for image/video transformations is presented. It can perform quantized 8×8 DCT and quantized 8 × 8/4 × 4 H.264 integer transforms on the presented configurable architecture using integer shift–add arithmetic operations. The MPEG‐4/H.264 experimental and circuit simulation results show that the reconfigurable modules and the CORDIC‐Scaler can not only approximate the arbitrary scaling values for different video standards efficiently but also achieve very high throughput and retain good transformation quality compared with the default methods in terms of PSNR. Therefore, the proposed IP Core is very suitable for low‐complexity multi‐purpose Video Codecs in SoC designs. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
