Abstract
Systems, methods, and circuitries adapt a system-on-chip (SoC) for use with different external devices. In one example, an SOC includes a plurality of SoC data lanes configured to conduct data signals between the SoC and an external device interface. The SoC also includes an interface lane adaptor and a device interface including a plurality of interface connectors. The interface lane adaptor circuitry includes a plurality of SoC adaptor connectors connected to the interface connectors; a plurality of external adaptor connectors connected to the SoC data lanes and configured to be connected to the external device interface; a lane selector circuitry configured to connect a selected one of a first or a second SoC adaptor connector to a selected SoC data lane; and a lane configuration circuitry configured to control the lane selector circuitry to connect either the first or the second SoC adaptor connector to the selected SoC data lane.
