SYSTEM ON CHIP KEEPING LOAD BALANCE AND LOAD BALANCING METHOD THEREOF

摘要

PURPOSE: An SOC(System-On-Chip) and a load balance maintaining method thereof are provided to reduce the performance degradation of an SoC and to promote the use efficiency of an interconnection block by maintaining load balance between transaction transfer paths. CONSTITUTION: Slave IP blocks respond a request of master IP blocks(2100,2120,2140). An interconnection block(2300) transfers transactions of the master IP blocks to the slave IP blocks. The interconnection block monitors load information of the transfer paths and selects the transfer path according to load information. The interconnection block includes first and second monitoring units and a load balancing unit.
