Abstract
A microcontroller system is disclosed that includes an access stealing monitor coupled to a bus that is configured to receive a first access request from the bus for a first peripheral, duplicate the first access request, transform the first access request to a second access request on a second peripheral, and transfer the second access request to the bus. In another embodiment, a first peripheral coupled to the bus is configured to receive a first access request from the bus for the first peripheral, duplicate the first access request and transform the first access request to a second access request. A second peripheral coupled to the bus and to the first peripheral is configured to receive the second access request and to respond to the second access request. Methods of access stealing in a microcontroller system are also disclosed.
