Abstract
The present embodiments relate to an address generator circuit for addressing a storage circuit. The address generator circuit may generate address signals for read and write access operations at the storage circuit. The write access operation may store a two-dimensional array in the storage circuit and the read access operation may retrieve a transpose of the two-dimensional array from the storage circuit. The address generator circuit may include a status flag generation circuit that generates status flag signals, a modulo adder circuit that receives first and second signals and computes a modulo adder output signal, and an address processing circuit. The address processing circuit may receive the modulo adder output signal from the modulo adder circuit and the plurality of status flag signals from the status flag generation circuit and provide the first and second signals to the modulo adder circuit.
