  • Patent number: 8484404
    Abstract: A digital signal processing architecture supporting efficient coding of memory access information is provided. In an example embodiment, a digital signal processor includes an adjustment value register to store an initial adjustment value and a succeeding adjustment value. The digital signal processor may also include an address generator circuit to retrieve an instruction including a memory address value that is greater than N, and a further instruction including a further memory address value that is less than or equal to N. In addition, the digital signal processor may include a memory, which includes a high bank address space defined by memory locations that are uniquely identified with memory address values greater than N. The address generator circuit may access the high bank address space, using initial adjustment value and the memory address value, or using the succeeding adjustment value and the further memory address value.
