A multi-port processor architecture having a first bus, a second bus and a central processing unit. The central processing unit having a first and second ports coupled to first and second busses respectively. A first bus to second bus bi-directional interface couples the first bus to the second bus. Optionally, the first bus or the second bus can be connected to a memory. The architecture can include a third bus with a third bus to first bus bi-directional interface connecting the third bus to the first bus and a third bus to second bus bi-directional interface connecting the third bus to the second bus. If there are additional bus systems, the Nth port (where N is an integer greater than 2) is connected to the Nth port. The buses use bi-directional interfaces to communicate with each other without using CPU or memory resources, reducing memory access latency.
