Abstract
A plurality of inputs are configured to receive circuit switched traffic from a plurality of initiators. A plurality of outputs are configured to output said traffic to a network on chip. Each output is associated with a different quality of service traffic. A traffic controller directs the received circuit switched traffic to respective ones of the outputs in dependence on a quality of service associated with the traffic.
Claims22
A connection arrangement, comprising:
- a plurality of inputs configured to receive circuit switched traffic from a plurality of initiators;
- a plurality of outputs configured to output said circuit switched traffic to a network on chip, each of said outputs being associated with a different quality of service;
- and
- a traffic controller configured to direct the received circuit switched traffic to respective ones of the outputs in dependence on a quality of service associated with said circuit switched traffic and configured to modify an address associated with said circuit switched traffic in dependence on said quality of service associated with said circuit switched traffic, said address comprising a destination address for said circuit switched traffic.
