Definitions
- the present invention relates to interconnect systems, particularly the arbitration of requests to interact with a slave device generated by multiple master devices connected at different stages in a multi-stage interconnect system.
- Modern electronic devices such as system-on-chip (SoC) devices may include an "interconnect system” to allow multiple master devices to access a given slave device.
- an arbitration unit or “arbiter” is arranged to determine which master device has priority access to the slave device in the event that more than one of them requests access or initiates a transaction involving the slave.
- the present invention provides a microprocessor comprising an interconnect system arranged to control access to a slave device, said interconnect system comprising:
- each master device has a priority value for said slave associated therewith;
- a first stage arbiter connected to said plurality of first stage master devices and arranged to: determine a first selected master device from the priority values of those of the first stage master devices wishing to connect to the slave; and produce a transaction including the priority value associated with the first selected master device;
- a second stage arbiter connected to said first stage arbiter to receive said transaction and further connected to at least one second stage master device having a priority value for said slave associated therewith, said second arbiter being arranged to: determine a second selected master device from the priority values of any second stage master device wishing to connect to the slave and the priority value of the transaction from the first stage arbiter.
- an interconnect system in accordance with embodiments of the present invention provides a "multi-stage" system wherein different master devices are connected at different stages, and each stage has an arbiter.
- the first stage arbiter determines from the priority values associated with its connected master devices that wish to connect to the slave which master device should be selected and passes this as a transaction which includes the priority value of the selected master to the second stage arbiter.
- the second stage arbiter compares the transaction priority value to the priority value(s) associated with any master device connected to the second stage arbiter that wishes to connect to the slave. If the master device selected by the first arbiter is determined to be of greater priority than any master device connected to the second arbiter that wishes to connect to the slave, the second arbiter will select the master device selected by the first arbiter.
- Dividing the interconnect system into two or more stages can give a number of advantages. For example each stage can be designed with knowledge only of the number of masters that are connected to that stage, i.e. without needing to know the number of masters connected to other stages. Moreover the connection matrix required for each stage is simplified compared to a densely connected matrix as is required for a corresponding single-stage system. These benefits means that the individual stages can be developed and implemented more easily and
- An interconnect system in accordance with embodiments of the present invention also allows for the priority values associated with each master device to be set completely independently of the configuration of the interconnect system itself.
- the first and second arbiters are located in different clock domains having respective lower and higher frequencies. This allows a further advantage of embodiments of the invention to be realised whereby improved and less critical timing paths, fewer gates and therefore less power is needed in the higher frequency clock domain.
- the first stage arbiter is located in the lower clock domain - e.g. 16 MHz - and the second stage arbiter is located in the higher frequency clock domain - e.g. 64 MHz.
- transactions originating from the first stage are always addressed to one particular slave. This means that no new address decoding is required in the second stage for these transactions which provides a saving in the number of gates needed in a digital integrated circuit implementation.
- the priority levels comprise a plurality of bits. This allows the system to support 'fine grain' priority levels rather than simpler 'high' or 'low' levels.
- the second stage arbiter could effect a connection between said second selected master device and said slave device.
- the second stage arbiter could produce a second transaction including the priority value associated with the second selected master device. This could be passed to a third stage arbiter, thereby forming a cascade or hierarchy of arbiters. Alternatively it could be passed to another system to effect the connection between said second selected master device and said slave device.
- a downstream arbiter could receive transactions from more than one upstream arbiter.
- the arbiters may apply any algorithm or metric in order to determine which master device connected to it should be the selected master device for that stage, in some preferred embodiments the first selected master device is determined to be the master device having the highest priority value associated therewith. In a set of potentially overlapping embodiments, the second selected master device is determined to be the master device having the highest priority value associated therewith (which may be connected to the second arbiter or associated with the transaction priority value).
- the slave device is connected to the second arbiter. It will of course be appreciated that in the set of embodiments wherein the interconnect system comprises more than two arbiters, the slave device may, at least in some embodiments, be connected to a final arbiter, said final arbiter being an arbiter that does not produce a transaction with a priority value (although typically it will pass along a transaction without a priority value).
- the priority value assigned for each master device for the slave may be configured either during the design of the interconnect system or may, at least in preferred embodiments, be user- configurable. Such embodiments may allow the user to configure priorities for each master-slave pair without having to take into account the internal architecture of the interconnect system , which clock domain the master is in etc.
- the priority values are fixed during use. However in some alternative embodiments, at least some of the priority values are arranged to vary dynamically when said interconnect system is in use. Having the priority values vary dynamically may also be useful in systems having different modes of operation wherein different master devices are given different priorities than would be the normal in other modes of operation.
- the interconnect system is arranged to control access to two or more slave devices. It may be arranged so that master devices at all stages have access to slave devices at all stages or there may only be a subset of possible pairing that are permitted.
- the interconnect system is implemented in accordance with the Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture (AMBA®) specification.
- AMBA® Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture
- ARM® an industry- standard outlined by ARM®.
- the interconnect system may be implemented using the AMBA® high-performance bus lite (AHB-Lite) protocol.

- Fig. 4 shows the implementation of Fig. 2 when adapted to incorporate the interconnect system of Fig. 3.
- Fig. 1 shows a block diagram of a conventional interconnect system 1.
- the interconnect system comprises: a slave device 2; an arbiter 4; a multiplexer 5 and four master devices 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d.
- the multiplexer 5 is connected to each of the master devices 6a-d through respective connections A - D and to the slave 2. While only one slave device is shown in Fig. 1 , it will be appreciated that a typical interconnect system may have a plurality of slaves connected to it.
- the slave device 2 can only serve one master device 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d at a time.
- priority value 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d For each connection between a master device 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d and the slave device 2, there is a priority value 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d which is output from a respective priority output 9a, 9b, 9c, 9d provided on each of the master devices 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d respectively.
- priority values 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d is input to a priority input 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d provided on the arbiter 4.
- Each of the master devices 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d is also arranged to provide a request signal 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d to the arbiter 4 via respective request outputs 1 1a, 1 1 b, 1 1c, 11 d that are connected to respective request inputs 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d of the arbiter 4.
- Each of these request signals 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d is typically a binary "1" if the respective master module 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d is requesting access to the slave device 2 and is a binary "0" if not.
- the arbiter 4 grants access to the slave device 2 to the master device 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d having the highest priority value 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d of the master devices 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d that are currently indicating via their respective request signals 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d that they wish to access the slave device 2.
- the arbiter 4 outputs, via its selector output 12, a selection signal 13 which is provided to a multiplexer 5 which is part of the interconnect system and which utilises the selector signal 13 to permit a connection 14 between the slave device 2 and the appropriate master device 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d.
- Fig. 2 shows a functional block diagram of a typical implementation of the interconnect system of Fig. 1.
- the implementation shown in Fig. 2 is typical of the ARM® Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture (AMBA®), an open standard interconnect specification for the connection of functional blocks in a system on chip (SoC) design.
- AMBA® ARM® Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture
- SoC system on chip
- a processor 100 and peripheral devices 102 are arranged to access a set of eight random access memory (RAM) units 1 10a-h using the AMBA®3 AH B- Lite Protocol.
- RAM random access memory
- the processor 100 comprises: a central processing unit (CPU) core 104 such as an ARM® Cortex® M4 processor core; a set of parallel bridges 106 such as AHB-AHB (or "AHB2AHB") bridges, one for each master; and an arbiter 108 for each slave.
- CPU central processing unit
- AHB-AHB or "AHB2AHB”
- arbiter 108 for each slave.
- Each arbiter 108 is connected to its respective slave 110 by a signal/bus set 120.
- the peripherals 102 include a number of direct memory access (DMA) master devices 1 12. While shown as a single functional block for illustrative purposes, the peripherals 102 in this particular example include twenty DMA master devices 1 12. These DMA master devices 1 12 are connected to the bridges 106 via buses 1 18. The bridges 106 serve to convert transactions from the master devices 112 which operate in a first clock domain at 16MHz to the 64MHz used in the second clock domain in which the RAM unit slaves 1 10 reside. Similarly the bridges 106 convert read data and response signals from 64MHz to 16MHz.. The bridges 106 are connected to the arbiter 108 via further buses 116, corresponding in number to the buses 118 between the DMA master devices 112 and the bridges 106.
- DMA direct memory access
- the arbiter 108 is also connected to the CPU core 104 via other buses 1 14. There may, by way of example only, be three buses from the core 104 to the each of the eight arbiters 108 and thus each of the arbiters 108 accepts twenty-three busses 114, 1 16.
- the eight arbiters 108 are arranged to determine which of the twenty-three master devices should be given access to the eight slave devices, i.e. the eight RAM units 1 10a-h.
- Fig. 3 shows a block diagram of an interconnect system in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
- the interconnect system depicted in Fig. 3 comprises: a slave device 202; a number of master devices 206a-g; two
- multiplexers 205a, 205b and two arbiters 204a, 204b compared to the single multiplexer and arbiter in the interconnect system shown in Fig. 1.
- the first stage which may for example be in a 16 MHz clock domain
- four of the master devices 206a-d are connected to the first arbiter 204a so that their priority outputs 209a-d and request outputs 21 1a-d are connected to the respective priority inputs 208a-d and request inputs 210a-d of the first arbiter 204a.
- the master devices 206a-d are also connected to the first multiplexer 205a by respective connections A-D.
- the other three master devices 206e-g are in the second stage, which may be in a 64 MHz clock domain, connected to the second arbiter 204b. Similarly, their respective priority outputs 209e-g and request outputs 211 e-g are connected to the corresponding priority inputs 208e-g and request inputs 210e-g of the second arbiter 204b. These master devices 206e-g are also connected to the second multiplexer 205b by respective connections E-G.
- the first stage multiplexer 205a is connected to the second stage multiplexer 205b by a connection H.
- the first arbiter 204a is arranged to determine which of the four master devices 206a-d connected to it has the highest priority value 216a-d of the master devices 206a-d having their respective request signals 218a-d set to binary T. The first arbiter 204a then outputs via its priority output 212a a priority signal 220
- the priority signal 220 is input to the fourth priority input 208h of the second arbiter 204b.
- a request signal 222 is output from the request output 224a of the first arbiter 204a to the request input 21 Oh of the second arbiter.
- Each instance of a request signal 222, priority signal 220 and corresponding control signals and data passed over connection H between the two multiplexers 205a, 205b comprise a transaction. The priority value of these transactions going between the first stage and the second stage can change from one transaction to the next.
- the first arbiter 204a passes a selector signal 213a to the first multiplexer 205a. This allows the corresponding master 206a-d to be connected to the slave 202 once access has been granted.
- the second arbiter 204b is arranged to determine which master device 206e-g connected to it and requesting access has the highest priority value 216e-g.
- the second arbiter 204b also compares these priority values 216e-g with the priority value 220 provided to it by the first arbiter 204a.
- the master device selected by the second arbiter 204a will be the master device with the highest priority value 216a-g of all seven of the master devices 206a-g which want to connect to the slave 202.
- the second arbiter 204b passes a selector signal 213b to the second multiplexer 205b. As previously described with reference to Fig. 1 , this will enable a connection between the slave device 202 and the appropriate master device 206 .
- Fig. 4 shows the implementation of Fig. 2 when adapted to incorporate the interconnect system of Fig. 3.
- the peripherals 302 now also include a set of eight arbiters 308a (one for each end RAM slave 310a-h) to which the DMA master devices 312 are connected via twenty buses 322.
- This set of arbiters 308a is each arranged to determine which of the twenty DMA master devices 312 have the highest priority for a given slave 310a-h and produce outputs accordingly.
- Each master device 312 can request access to any of the slaves 310a-h by means of the corresponding arbiter, although a master can only request access to one slave via one arbiter at a time.
- the outputs from the arbiters 308a are passed to the eight bridges 306 via eight buses 318.
- the number of buses 316 connecting the bridges 306 to the second set of arbiters 308b need only be the same as the number of buses 318 connecting the bridges 306 to the first set of arbiters 308a, thus only eight buses are required here.
- the second set of arbiters 308b need only compare inputs from eleven buses - the three outputs produced by the CPU core 304 plus the eight buses from the bridges 306 - compared to twenty three in the arrangement of Fig. 2.
- the second set of arbiters 308b produce signals indicating which of its eleven masters should be granted access to each of the eight independent RAM units 310a-h
- the second set of arbiters 308b in this case do not have to compare the priority values of all twenty DMA master devices 312 and only eight bridges are required in this domain compared to twenty. This is particularly advantageous as the second set of arbiters 308b are in the faster clock domain when compared to the first set of arbiters 308a. This means that fewer logic gates and flip-flops are required in the faster clock domain which reduces the overall power consumption and complexity of the circuit as a whole. The complexity of the circuit is reduced as fewer input/output (10) ports are required on the interface between the processor 300 and the peripherals 302. This also reduces the number of time critical paths in the faster processor clock domain, providing the possibility of using higher clock frequencies within the processor 300 than with conventional interconnect systems. Moreover much of the requirement for multiplexing is moved from the fast to the slow clock domain which means that the power is further reduced as the additional arbiter is not activated by transactions from the processor.
- the present invention provides a multi-stage interconnect system that can be readily scaled for any number of slave devices and master devices.
- Interconnect systems in accordance with embodiments of the present invention provide user-programmable priority settings that are independent of the physical configuration of the interconnect system and uses transactions carrying the priority levels between the stages. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described hereinabove are merely exemplary and are not limiting on the scope of the invention.
