FlexWay Interconnect IP

Entry-level network-on-chip (NoC) IP for low power and cost efficiency.

Overview

Entry-level network-on-chip (NoC) IP for low power and cost efficiency.

Arteris FlexWay® 5 network-on-chip (NoC) IP is particularly well suited to cost-efficient, low-power IoT edge devices and microcontrollers (MCUs).

It revolutionizes SoC development with:

  • Optimized interconnects
  • Reduced time to market
  • Improved performance
  • Lower power consumption
  • Compact die size

By automating design tasks and supporting tailored topologies, FlexWay enhances system responsiveness and includes features to help optimize battery life, system integrity and performance. FlexWay 5 is used around the world for secure, performant, and resilient designs in mobile, automotive, consumer, and enterprise applications.

Key features

  • Multi-clock/power/voltage domains and power management with unit-level clock gating
  • Multi-protocol support including AMBA 5 with QoS bandwidth regulator and limiter
  • Integrated SystemC simulation and UVM verification support
  • Import and Export to Magillem tools
  • AMBA 5 support of DVM 8.1 (Distributed Virtual Memory)
  • On-chip performance monitoring and debug
  • Debug and trace with ATB 128b and timestamps

Benefits

Flexible topologies

FlexWay is generated from simple elementary components which are combined using a powerful set of algorithms and an intuitive GUI, making it possible to build the optimal topology for embedded applications.

Small to medium SoCs

FlexWay supports simple to medium-complexity designs and easily scales efficiently between the two, containing only the optimum configuration required.

Huge bandwidth

FlexWay is uncompromising in how it drives performant on-chip dataflow despite its power-efficient design.
