Different forms of embedded computer processors to better your system

 

In the race to faster and faster interconnect speeds, some topics are not often discussed, including the types of transactions supported, communications latency and overhead, and what sorts of topologies can be easily supported. Designers tend to think of all interconnects being created equal and having a figure of merit based solely on embedded computer bandwidth.

Reality is quite different. Much as there are different forms of processors optimized for general-purpose, signal-processing, graphics, and communications applications, interconnects are also designed and optimized for different connectivity problems. An interconnect typically solves the problems it was designed for embedded computer  and can be pressed into service to address other applications, but it will be less efficient in these applications.
