Abstract
A data-sparsity homogenizer includes a plurality of multiplexers and a controller. The plurality of multiplexers receives 2bit streams of non-homogenous sparse data in which the non-homogenous sparse data includes non-zero value data clumped together. The plurality of multiplexers is arranged in 2rows and N columns. Each input of a multiplexer in a first column receives a respective bit stream of the 2bit streams of non-homogenized sparse data, and the multiplexers in a last column output 2bit streams of sparse data that is more homogenous than the non-homogenous sparse data of the 2bit streams. The controller controls the plurality of multiplexers so that the multiplexers in the last column output the 2channels of bit streams of sparse data that is more homogeneous than the non-homogenous sparse data of the 2bit streams.
