Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide an automatic address generator that generates an address sequence directly using counters that count between predefined start and stop values in accordance with a predefined modes of indexing. The counters support slipping when counting to support convolutional filters in one-dimension (1D) and two-dimension (2D). For 2D indexing, a first counter indexes in the X direction and a second counter indexes in the Y direction in memory. The values from the first and second counter are combined with an offset value to form an address directly to memory.
