Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Circuits, apparatuses, and methods are disclosed for address scrambling in integrated circuits. One example apparatus includes a plurality of data regions, each of the plurality of data regions configured to provide a respective portion of data responsive to a physical address provided by a respective decode circuit. The plurality of data regions are configured to provide their respective portions of data responsive to a common logical address. The common logical address is scrambled such that a plurality of different physical addresses are provided to the plurality of data regions.
