Abstract
Described herein are techniques, systems, and circuits for addressing image data according to blocks. For example, in some cases, the address space may be divided into high order address bits and low order address bits. In these cases, an address circuit may twist an address space by shifting the high order bits and low order bits of an address in a rightward direction, shifting the low order bits of the address in a leftward direction, and shifting the high order bits and the low order bits of the address in the leftward direction. The circuit may modify the address value and untwist the address space. For example, the untwisting may include shifting the high order bits and the low order bits of an address in the rightward direction, shifting the low order bits of the address in the rightward direction, and shifting the high order bits and the low order bits of the address in the leftward direction.
