An addressing circuit includes a first set of inputs configured to receive a
first
set of address signals en route from the set of processors to the memory and defining
a least significant address portion. The addressing circuit further includes a
second set of inputs configured to intercept a second set of address signals en
route from the set of processors to the memory and defining a most significant
address portion. The addressing circuit also includes control circuitry configured
to output a replacement set of address signals to the memory in place of the second
set of address signals. The replacement set of address signals defines either the
most significant address portion defined by the second set of address signals when
the least significant address portion is outside a predetermined range, or a predefined
most significant address portion when the least significant address portion is
within the predetermined range.
