A system on chip (SoC) includes a central processing unit (CPU), an intellectual property (IP) block, and a memory management unit (MMU). The CPU is configured to set a prefetch direction corresponding to a working set of data. The IP block is configured to process the working set of data. The MMU is configured to prefetch a next page table entry from a page table based on the prefetch direction during address translation between a virtual address of the working set of data and a physical address.
