The Study of SoC Architecture Design Based on 32-bit Embedded RISC Processor

Abstract

As a important step in SoC design, good architecture design is the foundation to ensure the final structure to meet the design specifications. In paper, the minimal SoC system used for performance compare between basic architectures is defined, which is consisted of embedded processor, on chip bus, on chip memory and IP (GPIO). Then six SoC architecture based on 32 bit embedded RISC processor is studied, and comparison and analysis are discussed.
