:CONCEPT
 is an integrated circuit (also known as
a "chip") that integrates all
components of a computer or
other electronic system. These
components always include a central
processing
unit (CPU), memory, input/output port
s and secondary storage – all on a
single substrate or microchip, the size
of a coin. "

:USES
 SoC is very common in mobile
computing (such as smartphones)
 And advanced computing markets
 Used in the embedded system
 The Internet of things
 Integrates Micro controller with
advanced peripherals such as GPU
THERE ARE THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF
:SOCS

 SoCs using a microcontroller (chip with

CPU)
 SoCs that use a microprocessor (chip
with only CPU).
 SoCs which may or may not use a
microprocessor or controller.
 Programmable Chip Systems (PSoC)
APPLICATIONS SYSTEMS-ON-CHIP
Embedded systeme
Where previously only microcontrollers
could be used, SoCs are rising to
prominence in the embedded systems
.market
Mobile computing
Mobile computing based SoCs always bundle
processors, memories, on-chip caches,
wireless networking capabilities and often
digital camera hardware and firmware
:OTHER APPLICATION
Personal computers[edit]
As long ago as 1992, Acorn Computers
produced the A3010, A3020 and A4000
range of personal computers with the
ARM250 system-on-chip. It combined the
original Acorn ARM2 processor with a
memory controller (MEMC), video
. controller (VIDC), and I/O controller
SOC SYSTEM IN GENERAL CONTAINS
 A DSP Core processor that contains
more than one processor core.
 Sectors of memory of all kinds.
 Clock pulse generators, including
vibrators
 Surround circuits
 Interfaces to the chip
 Similar interfaces as ADC (Analogue Digital
Converter) and DAC (Digital Analogue
Converter)
 Voltage regulators and power consumption
regulators.
THE CHALLENGES OF AN SOC
higher prototyping and architecture
costs
more complex debugging
.lower IC yields
IC is not cost effective and takes time
.to manufacture
SOC MANUFACTURING
There are three basic ways to
manufacture Soc:
 Special design: soC is designed from

scratch in terms of the distribution of

logical gates and their association with
each other and this method takes a
long time and a great cost but in the
end gives SoC distinct in all respects.
 Design using ready-made boxes: In this way
the SoC is assembled starting from its basic
components and followed by terminals and
this method results in some waste in the
slide space.
METHODOLOGIES
Probabilistic modeling
Markov chains
Pipelining
Task scheduling
SOCS CAN BE FABRICATED BY SEVERAL
:TECHNOLOGIES, INCLUDING
Full custom ASIC
Standard cell ASIC
Field-programmable gate array (FPGA)
DESIGN FLOW
 A system on chip consists of both the
hardware, described in § Structure,
and the software controlling the
microcontroller, microprocessor or
digital signal processor cores,
peripherals and interfaces.
THE DESIGN FLOW FOR AN SOC AIMS

develop this hardware

and software at the same
time, also known as
.architectural co-design
SOC ADVANTAGES

 power saving
 space saving
 cost reduction
 SoCs are also much more efficient
 Systems on chip also tend to minimize the
latency provided the various elements are
strategically placed on the motherboard
in order to minimize interference and
interconnection delays as well as speed
up the data transmission process
