Selective sequence generation method and apparatus

摘要

A sequence generator is configured to be re-initialized to a value selected derived from a candidate group that is derived from a predetermined value. If and when the re-initializing is performed, it is fully performed within about one clock cycle of setting the sequence generator to the predetermined value. The sequence generator is optionally initialized by a local processor to which it is operatively coupled, after which the processor receives one sequence value each cycle.
