Abstract

There is provided an apparatus that includes a first port that receives first data of a first type from a first storage circuit. A second port receives second data of a second type from a second storage circuit having a lower worst case latency in hardware than the first storage circuit. A third port receives access requests for the first data and the second data from a processing circuit. When one of the access requests is received for the first data, it is forwarded to the first storage circuit and when the one of the access requests is received for the second data, it is forwarded to the second storage circuit. A shared storage circuit stores the first data and the second data and has a storage capacity.
