Abstract

An apparatus includes a data processing array having a plurality of array tiles. Each array tile can include a random-access memory (RAM) having a local memory interface accessible by circuitry within the array tile and an adjacent memory interface accessible by circuitry disposed within an adjacent array tile. Each adjacent memory interface of each array tile can include isolation logic that is programmable to allow the circuitry disposed within the adjacent array tile to access the RAM or prevent the circuitry disposed within the adjacent array tile from accessing the RAM. The data processing array can be subdivided into a plurality of partitions wherein the isolation logic of the adjacent memory interfaces is programmed to prevent array tiles from accessing RAMs across a boundary between the plurality of partitions.
