In a data conversion device, a plurality of series of data to be converted
is input from a buffer memory device to a data processor. The data
processor processes a plurality of the series of the data to be
converted, simultaneously in parallel, and outputs a plurality of the
series of the data to be converted, simultaneously in parallel. A memory
controller of the buffer memory device relates a plurality of the series
of the data to be converted to respective conversion tables formed
therein by the data processor so as to read converted data corresponding
to the series of the data to be converted from the respective conversion
tables simultaneously in parallel.
