Abstract
A method is disclosed. The method includes scheduling a load operation at least twice the size of a maximum access supported by a memory device, dividing the load operation into a plurality of separate load operation segments having a size equivalent to the maximum access supported by the memory device, and performing each of the plurality of load operation segments. A further method is disclosed where a temporary register is used to minimize the number of memory accesses to support unaligned accesses.
