    摘要: An integrated circuit (IC) includes a Network-on-Chip (NoC). The NoC includes a plurality of NoC master circuits, a plurality of NoC slave circuits, and a plurality of switches. The plurality of switches are interconnected and communicatively link the plurality of NoC master circuits with the plurality of NoC slave circuits. The plurality of switches are configured to receive data of different widths during operation and implement different operating modes for forwarding the data based on the different widths.

    摘要: A time synchronization method, apparatus, domain controller, and storage medium are disclosed. The domain controller is mounted in a vehicle and includes a number of SoCs and micro control units. The SoCs and micro control units are respectively, communicatively connected through the controller area network bus and respectively connected to the switch via Ethernet. The switch has external Ethernet interfaces. A main SoC in the number of SoCs has external UART/PPS interfaces and the micro control units have external FlexRay interfaces. The time synchronization method of the domain controller includes any one of the steps of receiving a time service from an external device through the UART/PPS interfaces, receiving a time service from the external device through the switch over the Ethernet interface, or receiving a time service from the external device through the FlexRay interface under a normal operation phase of the vehicle.

    摘要: The technology of this application relates to a network chip management method. In the method, resource requirement information of a current network for a network chip is determined based on one or more of port information, configuration information, and traffic information of the network chip. A target operating frequency of the network chip is determined based on the resource requirement information. The network chip is controlled to operate at the target operating frequency. In this way, an operating frequency of the network chip adapts to the current network, so that power consumption of the network chip can be dynamically adjusted based on the current network, and the power consumption of the network chip is reduced while a network requirement is met.

    摘要: The present subject matter relates to methods, circuitry and equipment providing a multi-functional, cost effective, media independent, open platform device for communication services using differential signaling interfaces. The methods, circuitry and equipment comprise a plurality of input amplifiers, output amplifiers, and retimers. A non-blocking cross-point switch may be used to switch any differential signals from the cross-point switch input to output. The device aggregates communication services from a plurality of lower service capacity connectors and interfaces to a single higher capacity connector and interfaces. The device can establish a demarcation point with a single device capable of supporting any communication services, any physical media interfaces, from any location.

    摘要: A network comprising interconnected first and second processors, each processor comprising one or more of: multiple processing units arranged on a chip configured to execute program code; an on-chip interconnect comprising groups of exchange paths connected to receive data from corresponding groups of the processing units; external interfaces configured to communicate data off-chip as packets, each having a destination address, external interfaces of the first and second processors being connected by an external link; multiple exchange blocks, each connected to groups of the exchange paths; a routing bus configured to route packets between the exchange blocks and the external interfaces. Processing units of the first processor generate off-chip packets such that the group of processing units serviced by the first exchange block on the first processor address off-chip packets to the group of processing units on the second processor serviced by the corresponding first exchange block of the second processor.
