Abstract: Described is an integrated circuit (IC) that allows for communication between any input/output (I/O) pin and onboard peripherals. Accordingly, the resultant IC can be easily documented and connections between I/O pins and peripherals can be managed for each peripheral independently. The IC may include one or more sets of hardwired connections that provide a connection between of any I/O pin and any onboard peripheral. The hardwired connections may include the use of one or more crossbars. This increases the overall functionality and potential applications for an IC as the only limitation on peripheral connectivity is the number of I/O pins.

Abstract translation: 描述了允许任何输入/输出（I / O）引脚和板载外设之间通信的集成电路（IC）。 因此，可以容易地记录所得到的IC，并且可以独立地为每个外设管理I / O引脚和外围设备之间的连接。 IC可以包括提供任何I / O引脚和任何板载外设之间的连接的一组或多组硬连线连接。 硬连线可能包括使用一个或多个横梁。 这增加了IC的总体功能和潜在应用，因为对外设连接性的唯一限制是I / O引脚的数量。
