1. An integrated circuit (“
- IC”
), comprising;
an auto-bridging architecture includinga first phases block interfacing to a first user block having a first user signal domain, the first phases block configured to convert the first user signal domain to a common signal domain; and
a second phases block coupled to the first phases block and interfacing with a second user block having a second user signal domain, the second phases block configured to convert the second user signal domain to the common signal domain, the first user block cooperating with the second user block through the auto-bridging architecture of the IC.

Abstract
An integrated circuit includes an auto-bridging architecture including a first phases block that interfaces to a first user block having a first user signal domain. The first phases block converts the first user signal domain to a common signal domain. A second phases block coupled to the first phases block interfaces with a second user block having a second user signal domain. The second phases block converts the second user signal domain to the common signal domain so that the first user block cooperates with the second user block through the auto-bridging architecture of the IC.
