In one embodiment, the clock management circuitry includes a first master clock controller configured to provide a first command to a first slave clock controller via a first channel based on a received first clock request. The clock management circuitry also includes the first slave clock controller configured to control outputting a first clock signal based on the first command.

System on chip including clock management unit and method of operating the system on chip

A system on a chip (SoC) device verification system comprises: an SoC device model including one or more IPs and a memory controller; an external IP verification model receiving an instruction from the SoC device model and verifying operation of the one or more IPs included in the SoC device model; and a bus select model selecting one of the external IP verification model and an external device in response to a memory control signal received from the memory controller of the SoC device model.

System on chip (SoC) device verification system using memory interface

In a method of controlling transmitting and receiving buffers of a network controller and a network controller operating under such a method, at least one request for access to a system bus from the transmitting buffer and the receiving buffer is received, and the occupancy level of data in the receiving buffer and the vacancy level of data in the transmitting buffer are determined. Access to the system bus is granted based on the determination result. Buffers in the transmitting and receiving paths are treated as a single virtual transmitting buffer and a single virtual receiving buffer, respectively. Bus priority is determined by the data occupancy level in each virtual buffer and any change in the occupancy level. Therefore, it is possible to prevent or reduce underflow of the transmitting buffer and overflow of the receiving buffer, thereby impartially arbitrating which of the buffers can access the memory.
