System IP for mobile

Getting Started

Arm System IP is designed and tested alongside Cortex processors and Mali multimedia IP and provides an optimal path from processor to DRAM, maximising throughput whilst minimising latency throughout the system. CoreLink CCI Cache Coherent Interconnects are designed to be at the heart of every big.LITTLE system providing the same view of memory to each processor, and enabling fully coherent GPU support too. CoreLink DMC Dynamic memory controllers work closely with CoreLink CCI and low latency CoreLink NIC Network Interconnects, by balancing Quality of Service interconnect requirements with efficient LPDDR3/4 DRAM scheduling, and at the same time minimising head of line blocking for maximum throughput. 

Complementing CCI, NIC and DMC are CoreLink GIC for interrupt management and distribution and CoreLink SMMU for IO virtualization by providing hardware accelerated address translation. Powerful CoreSight Debug and Trace components complete the offering and are also available for software debug and system optimization. 

The net result for the end user is fluid responsive software with the ability to support displays with 4K content whilst still remaining within a mobile power budget and footprint.
