Abstract
A system having a memory device accessible by a plurality of processors is provided. The system includes a memory device, a first processor, and a second processor. The memory device has a first memory array part and a second memory array part. The first processor predominantly accesses the first memory array part of the memory device and selectively accesses the second memory array part of the memory device. The second processor predominantly accesses the second memory array part of the memory device and selectively accesses the first memory array part of the memory device.

10. A system comprising:
-
a baseband processor processing first data with a first data width;
an application processor processing second data with a second data width that is different from the first data width; and
a memory device having a first memory array part and a second memory array part from which data can be read by the baseband processor and the application processor and a MUX converting the first data width of the first data into the second data width and the second data width of the second data into the first data width, wherein;
the baseband processor writes the first data predominantly to the first memory array part and the application processor writes the second data selectively to the first memory array part; and
the application processor writes the second data predominantly to the second memory array part and the baseband processor writes the first data selectively to the second memory array part. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
