Abstract

Described is an integrated circuit (IC) that allows for communication between any input/output (I/O) pin and onboard peripherals. Accordingly, the resultant IC can be easily documented and connections between I/O pins and peripherals can be managed for each peripheral independently. The IC may include one or more sets of hardwired connections that provide a connection between of any I/O pin and any onboard peripheral. The hardwired connections may include the use of one or more crossbars. This increases the overall functionality and potential applications for an IC as the only limitation on peripheral connectivity is the number of I/O pins.
