Abstract

An integrated circuit device performing arithmetic operations on a plurality of digital inputs to produce an effective address and a linear address in a single operation. The integrated circuit device comprises a first circuit, a first adder circuit and a second adder circuit. The first circuit performs logical operations on the plurality of digital inputs to produce a first group of output signals and a second group of output signals. The first adder circuit, coupled to the first circuit, performs a first set of arithmetic operations on the first group of output signals to produce an effective address. Concurrently, the second adder circuit, coupled to the first circuit and in parallel with the second adder circuit, performs a second set of arithmetic operations on the second group of output signals to produce a linear address.
