Abstract
An integrated circuit device, and associated system and method, including a microprocessor, a multipurpose memory coupled with the microprocessor, a cache controller, and a first and second memory port. In one example, the first memory port is provided for coupling a first external memory device with the cache controller, and the second memory port is provided for coupling a second external memory device with the multipurpose memory. In one example, the first memory port may be adapted to be coupled with a Flash ROM, and the second memory port may be adapted to be coupled with an EEPROM. In this manner, the integrated circuit device may be utilized in different systems that have differing memory requirements.
