ABSTRACT:
A cache memory comprising a plurality of memory locations and a multiplexer tree for accessing selected memory locations and reordering the data retrieved from the selected memory locations prior to outputting the data to the processor. The multiplexer tree is controlled by an adder/decoder circuit which generates an effective address from two address operands and causes the multiplexer tree to perform the steps of accessing the data and re-ordering the data at least partially in parallel, thereby reducing memory latency.
