Abstract
A method for reading data from an n-way, set associative cache. n individually addressable memory units are provided, with each of the units storing a plurality of data elements. All n of the units are concurrently addressed to transfer a data element from each of the units to a respective latch, and one of such data elements is selectively transferred from one of the latches. The units are then serially addressed in a predetermined pattern to sequentially transfer data elements out of the units.
