An electronic device is provided which comprises a plurality of processing units (IP-IP), a network-based interconnect (N) coupled to the processing units (IP-IP) and at least one monitoring unit (PP) for monitoring a data flow of at least one first communication path between the processing units (IP-IP) and for forwarding monitoring results at least temporarily via at least two separate communication paths (MCMC).

Electronic device, system on chip and method for monitoring a data flow

An electronic device is provided which comprises a plurality of processing units (IP-IP), a network-based inter-connect (N) coupled to the processing units (IP-IP) and at least one monitoring unit (P, P) for monitoring a data flow of at least one first communication path between the processing units (IP-IP) and for forwarding monitoring results at least temporarily via at least two separate communication paths (MC, MC).

Therefore, an electronic device is provided which comprises a plurality of processing units (IP-IP), and a network-based interconnect (N) coupling the processing units (IP-IP) for enabling at least one first communication path (C) between the processing units (IP-IP). The electronic device furthermore comprises at least one first monitoring unit (P) for monitoring a data traffic of the at least one first communication path and for outputting monitoring results via at least one second communication path (MC), and at least one second monitoring unit (P) for monitoring a data traffic of the at least one second communication path (C) and for outputting monitoring results via at least one third communication path (MC).
