Two on-chip buses (OCBs) having respective standardized definitions are implemented on a multi-function system chip, with one of the OCB definitions being a subset of the other. System virtual components (VCs) are connected to the system OCB with a system virtual component interface or "bus wrapper". "Peripheral" virtual components are connected to a peripheral OCB using respective standard interface blocks. Since the definition of the peripheral OCB is a subset of the system OCB, bridging between the two OCBs is relatively straightforward. The invention permits a "plug and play' capability on behalf of all peripheral VC designs implemented according to the standard, such that the systems integrator may mix and match peripheral VCs without degradation of functionality or performance.
