Signal processing circuit
View Patent ↗A signal processing circuit includes a signal processing section which generates first address data and second address data in accordance with data processing, reads data stored in an external memory based on the first address data and the second address data for performing a predetermined processing, and outputs processed data along with the first address data and the second address data, an address conversion section which, receiving the first address data and the second address data input thereto, holds at least 1 bit of the first address and outputs third address data, and also adds the at least 1 bit of the held first address data to the second address and outputs fourth address data, and a data interface which performs a writing operation or a reading operation of the data processed by the signal processing section with respect to the external memory on the basis of a time when the address conversion section outputs the third address data and the forth address data.
1. A signal processing circuit comprising:
a signal processing section which generates and outputs first address data and second address data which differ from each other;
an address conversion section which removes at least data of 1 bit of the first address data and outputs the resulting address data as third address data, and adds the removed data to the second address data and outputs the resulting address data as fourth address data; and
a data interface which performs a writing operation or a reading operation of the data to and from a memory cell identified by a combination of the third address data and the fourth address data which are output from the address conversion section.
2. The signal processing circuit according to claim 1 , wherein
the address conversion section comprises:
a first register;
a second register which is connected to the first register for holding the at least 1 bit of the first address data stored in the first register; and
a selector which is connected with the first register and the second register for selectively outputting the address data held by the first register and the second register.
3. The signal processing circuit according to claim 2 , wherein
the signal processing section adds command data for controlling the external memory to each of the first address data and the second address data and outputs the resulting address data, and
the address conversion section further includes a command interpretation section for controlling the second register and the selector in accordance with the command data.
4. The signal processing circuit according to claim 1 , wherein
the external memory is a memory cell array having memory cells identified by row address data and column address data; and
the third address data and the fourth address data correspond to the row address data and the column address data, respectively.
