Data processing device with memory coupling unit

摘要

A data processing unit is disclosed with a register file having a plurality of registers. A memory having a plurality of n-bit input/output ports, and a coupling unit for coupling the memory with the register file, a memory address and select unit for addressing the memory banks are provided. The coupling unit comprises a bus having a bus width of at least 2n-bits forming at least a first and second sub-bus, first couplers for coupling each memory bank or the register file selectively with one of the sub-busses, and second couplers for coupling the register file or the memory banks with the bus.
