AMBA based multiprocessor system
Youngwoo Kim, Kyoung Park, Myung‐Joon Kim · 2004
In this paper, AMBA based multiprocessor system using dual ARM processor cores is proposed. In general, AMBA did not intend to be used in multiprocessor system. To implement multiprocessor system using AMBA AHB bus, a revised AHB bus arbiter, special AHB slave hardware, and registers which store bus master number and enable the right of bus usage are designed. The proposed multiprocessor system is implemented and tested using dual ARM922T cores with 0.18 /spl mu/m standard cell process.
