A bank select device has a plurality of addressable locations and a plurality of storage locations correlated to each other so that each storage location is correlated to plural addressable locations and each addressable location is correlated to one storage location. Each storage location contains a respective bank select. The addressable locations and storage locations are grouped into interleave patterns such that, for each pattern, there are Q storage locations and 2A addressable locations arranged in L sequential loops each containing Q sequentially addressable locations and a remainder loop containing R sequentially addressable locations, where L·Q+R=2A. A shunt defines a non-zero offset for each interleave so that each interleave commences with a different bank select and a complete rotation of all of the interleaves addresses each of the memory banks an equal number of times. The shunt (S) may be selected as mod(2A,Q), −Q+mod(2A,Q), ±1 or ±prime to , where −<S<+. The bank select is particularly useful for partially accessing rows of memory data to access data as cache lines. |
