Functional DescriptionThe architecture of the XC164LM combines advantages of RISC, CISC, and DSP processors with an advanced peripheral subsystem in a very well-balanced way.
In addition, the on-chip memory blocks allow the design of compact systems-on-silicon with
maximum performance (computing, control, communication).
The on-chip memory blocks (program code-memory and SRAM, dual-port RAM, data SRAM) and the set of generic peripherals are connected to the CPU via separate buses (see Figure 3-1).
This bus structure enhances the overall system performance by enabling the concurrent operation of several subsystems of the XC164LM.
The following block diagram gives an overview of the different on-chip components and of the advanced, high bandwidth internal bus structure of the XC164LM.
