Abstract

Embodiments of apparatuses, systems, and methods are described for communicating information between functional blocks of a system across a communication fabric. Rate logic may couple to the communication fabric. The rate logic is configured to determine a data bandwidth difference between a first data bandwidth capability of the sending device and the lower of 1) a second data bandwidth capability of the sending device or 2) a third data bandwidth capability of the communication fabric.
