I wanted to know that i have selected AXI (AMBA version3) as my NIshell protocol for interaction with Processing Element (PE) in Network On Chip(NoC). Is this the right choice?

Can I also use AXI version as my interconnects (Bus) standard in NoC,i.e. between multiple routers?

Can any one give me the exact link of technical and architectural specification of AXI.

Hello Sethi,

Don't really understand what you are asking with your first few paragraphs, whether the AXI protocol will be right for your application will depend on the system you are trying to implement.

However if you are simply looking for where to get the AXI spec from, just go to the main ARM website (http://www.arm.com) and type AXI protocol in the search box and one of the first links returned will point to a page for "ihi0022", the AXI protocol document number.

Thank you so much for the reply.

I have read the specifications of AXI but still confusedthat can I use AXI as a bus standard protocol and as an interface protocol innetwork on chip (NoC). Actually, there is component call Network Interface (NI)which is connected with Processing Element (PE) and this NI is connected withrouter (which follows its own standard/protocol of communication).

NI decouples the Network view from PE and it also convertstraffic from PE to packets. In short NI communicates with PE.

The other protocol used is OCP. So what you suggest meshould i go for OCP or AXI. And do you have any link or resources which compareboth these protocols.

Thank you so much.

Best Regards,
