Abstract
A system on a chip includes a network, an interface and a bridge module. The network includes one or more devices. The network is configured to operate in a first domain. Communication in the first domain is based on a first set of read and write ordering rules. An interface is connected between the network and a second chip. Communication between the interface and the second chip is in a second domain. Communication in the second domain is based on a second set of read and write ordering rules. The second set of read and write ordering rules are different than the first set of read and write ordering rules. The bridge module is configured to map communication transactions between the first domain and the second domain.
