  • Patent number: 6469945
    Abstract: A reconfigurable memory having M bit lines and a plurality of row lines, where M>1. The memory includes an array of memory storage cells, each memory storage cell storing a data value. The data value is read from or into the storage cells by coupling that data value to one of the bit lines in response to a row control signal on one of the row lines. A row select circuit generates the row control signal on one of the row lines in response to a row address being coupled to the row select circuit. The row select circuit includes a memory for storing a mapping of the row addresses to the row lines that determines which of the row lines is selected for each possible value of the row address.
