Abstract
Memories that are configurable to operate in either a banked mode or a bit-separated mode. The memories include a plurality of memory banks; multiplexing circuitry; input circuitry; and output circuitry. The input circuitry inputs at least a portion of a memory address and configuration information to the multiplexing circuitry. The multiplexing circuitry generates read data by combining a selected subset of data corresponding to the address from each of the plurality of memory banks, the subset selected based on the configuration information, if the configuration information indicates a bit-separated mode. The multiplexing circuitry generates the read data by combining data corresponding to the address from one of the memory banks, the one of the memory banks selected based on the configuration information, if the configuration information indicates a banked mode. The output circuitry outputs the generated read data from the memory.
