Abstract

Various aspects of the disclosed technology relate to streaming data to circuit blocks in a circuit. A system for streaming data in a circuit comprises a first network comprising first data channels and first interface devices and a second network comprising second data channels and second interface devices. Each of the first interface devices is coupled to ports of one of circuit blocks in the circuit and configurable to transport a plurality of equal-sized data packets consecutively. Each of the second interface devices is coupled to one of the first interface devices and configurable to transport configuration data to the first interface devices. The configuration data comprise data for determining whether or not a first interface device is activated and data for determining which bit or bits of each of the plurality of data packets to be captured, replaced, or captured and replaced by an activated first interface device.
