ABSTRACT:
A circuit for outputting area pattern bits from an area pattern array. The circuit includes a first stage, second stage and third stage. The first stage is configured to output N adjacent scan lines from a 2N×2N area pattern array based on a first address. N is a positive integer. The second stage is configured to receive the N adjacent scanlines and to select an N×N block from the N adjacent scanlines based on a second address. The third stage is configured to (a) select an (N/2)×N region of bits from the N×N block and load bits of the (N/2)×N region into a set of pixel tag outputs in a first mode, and (b) select an N×(N/2) region of bits from the N×N block and load bits of the N×(N/2) region into the set of pixel tag outputs in a second mode.
