摘要
System-on-chip (SoC) designs with parallel on-chip memories increase the memory bandwidth and feed the processor with only necessary data. This paper presents the implementation of a novel Configurable Parallel Memory Architecture (CPMA) that offers plenty of design and run-time configuration possibilities. CPMA is shown to decrease considerably the processor-memory bottleneck by widening the memory bandwidth, decreasing the number of memory accesses, and diminishing the significance of memory latency.
