    Abstract: A converter circuit for performing transfer of control logic signals between one first device (2) and one second device (3) coming under an interconnection bus, the first device (2) operating the frequency of a first clock signal (clock_1) and the second device (3) operating at the frequency of a second clock signal (clock_2). The clock frequencies in question may be in a first ratio to one another corresponding to unity, as well as in a second and a third ratio. The control signals comprise: an access-request signal (req_1, req_2) to be transferred from the first device (2) to the second device (3) ; a grant signal (gnt_1, gnt_2) to be transferred from the second device (3) to the first device (2); and a response-to-request signal (r_req_1, r_req_2) to be transferred from the second device (3) to the first device (2). The converter circuit comprises: manipulation circuit elements (28, 30 and 32) which define respective propagation paths through the converter circuit (4) for the aforesaid control signals. A logic network (34 to 42) may assume three states, corresponding, respectively, to said first, second and third ratios between the frequencies of said clock signals (clock_1, clock_2), interposing selectively said manipulation elements (28, 30, 32) in the aforesaid propagation paths.

    Abstract: An interconnect system includes an arbitration unit (AU) for arbitration among a plurality of sources or initiators requesting (102) access to resources or targets. The arbitration unit (AU) selectively grants (104) the initiators access to the targets as a function of respective priorities. The system includes a programmable control unit (CU) for programmably choosing the priorities in question out of group of at least two different priority schemes including a positional fixed priority, programmed fixed priority, and a variable priority based on a respective threshold latency values associated to the initiators.
