ABSTRACT:
Bus communication for components of a system on a chip. In one aspect of the invention, a system including bus communication to a slave includes a bridge operative to interface a first bus protocol to a bus matrix that uses a second bus protocol. A first serializer coupled to the bridge serializes information received from the bridge and sends the serialized information over a communication bus. A second serializer coupled to the communication bus receives the serialized information and deserializes the serialized information. A slave uses the first protocol and is coupled to the second serializer, where the deserialized information is provided to the slave, and the slave provides a response to the information from the bridge.
