  • Methods and apparatus for reordering data
    Patent number: 8898212
    Abstract: A data reordering system for determining addresses associated with a vector of transformed data and corresponding method of reordering transformed data, where the data reordering system includes: a first transform function coupled to a data vector and operable to provide the vector of transformed data; a reordering function, including a plurality of counters, that is operable to determine a plurality of offset addresses, with a, respective, offset address for each element in the vector of transformed data; and an adder operable to add a base address that corresponds to the first address to the each, respective, offset address to provide a sequence of addresses suitable for accessing the vector of transformed data to provide a re-sequenced vector of transformed data.
