Abstract
A scrambling operation is used to space apart the grants that a communication circuit receives during a period of time, such as 512 arbitration periods. An operator can enter the number of arbitration periods that a communication circuit is to receive in blocks of sequential logical address ranges. The logical addresses are then changed to physical addresses that are spaced apart, thereby significantly reducing the buffering required by the communication circuit.
