HARDWARE-BASED VIRTUAL-TO-PHYSICAL ADDRESS TRANSLATION FOR PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC MASTERS IN A SYSTEM ON CHIP

Abstract:

An example programmable integrated circuit (IC) includes a processing system having a processor, a master circuit, and a system memory management unit (SMMU). The SMMU includes a first translation buffer unit (TBU) coupled to the master circuit, an address translation (AT) circuit, an AT interface coupled to the AT circuit, and a second TBU coupled to the AT circuit, and programmable logic coupled to the AT circuit in the SMMU through the AT interface.
