Coherent Network-on-Chip (NoC)

Overview

SkyeChip's NoC is the first in the world that is able to reconfigure routing paths after tapeout. It is a scalable and area efficient interconnect solution optimized for memory coherent systems.

SkyeChip’s Coherent Network-on-Chip (NoC) IP works together with SkyeChip’s Resource and Performance Tuner (RAPTuner ™) to deliver system-optimized interconnect solutions that is used in the construction of ASICs, SoCs, FPGAs and ASSPs.

Key Features
