ZHANG Yuan-yuan, SUN Guang, SU Li, et al. Structure design of low-latency extensible router in network on chip[J]. 2012, 31(8): 134-136. DOI: 10.13873/j.1000-97872012.08.013.
To satisfy the requirement that the router in network on chip can support multiple IP cores
and its latency performance is good
a router with a distributed routing and arbitrating structure is designed.Its arbitration module arbitrates on the request state of the current router and the state of the input buffer in the next router
this arbitration method improves the success rate of the packet transmission
so it decreases the transmission latency and improves latency performance of the router
meanwhile the simulation results indicate the router has good expansibility in area overhead.
