Abstract

Some examples described herein relate to multi-port stream switches of data processing engines (DPEs) of an electronic device, such as a programmable device. In an example, a programmable device includes a plurality of DPEs. Each DPE of the DPEs includes a hardened processor core and a stream switch. The stream switch is connected to respective stream switches of ones of the DPEs that neighbor the respective DPE in respective ones of directions. The stream switch has input ports associated with each direction of the directions and has output ports associated with each direction of the directions. For each direction of the directions, each input port of the input ports associated with the respective direction is selectively connectable to one of the output ports associated with the respective direction.
