1. An image processing apparatus comprising:
- an arithmetic processing unit which processes image data, being a digital signal prepared based on an image, as a manifest image, said arithmetic processing unit including, an arithmetic processing section of SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data stream) type that can process a plurality of image data at the same time;
a plurality of memories connected to said arithmetic processing section; and
a memory controller which controls each of said memories, wherein said memory controller controls transfer of image data performed between said memory and said arithmetic processing section.

Abstract
The image processing apparatus is provided with a plural memory controllers, each of which controls a RAM. The memory controllers are connected to an SIMD type arithmetic processing section. A control register is connected to the memory controllers. The control register controls transfer of image data between the RAMs and the SIMD type arithmetic processing section.
