ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for generating addresses. The present invention provides for fast generation of a series of addresses in an array where the series comprises a column or diagonal of the array, such as for layered ECC code words in CD-ROM. Whereas each address is computable individually using multipliers and modulo circuits, the present invention operates on the series of addresses as a whole, forming a dependence between successive addresses. The dependence is separated into multiple address indices that may be summed together for the desired address. The present invention is thus able to generate a series of addresses by accumulation processes requiring only selection of the appropriate increment value and addition to a previously stored address index value. Address generation throughput is increased with savings in layout area and power.
