Abstract

The present invention pertains to a system for performing data compression/decompression. The system may have a memory controller with compression/decompression logic. A first memory array may be coupled to the memory controller via a first bus and a second memory array may be coupled to the memory controller via a second bus. The system may also have logic for directing the transfer of data from the first memory array via the first bus to be processed by the compression/decompression logic and then transferred to the second memory array via the second bus.
