ABSTRACT:
When integrating a peripheral, it is common practice to use a fully custom design. Custom designs typically optimize performance, size, and energy usage. However, custom designs are more expensive in terms of testing and development time. Rather than designing an integrated peripheral, an existing design (for example, peripheral420) for the peripheral with attendant communications bus interface (for example, interface424) is combined with an existing communications bus interface (for example, peripheral bus interface410) to produce an integrated circuit (for example, integrated circuit405). The use of existing designs greatly reduces development and test time, along with costs.
