What is SoC

Generally speaking, SoC(System on Chip) is called system-level chip, also known as system-on-chip, meaning that it is a product, is an integrated circuit with a special goal, which contains the complete system and all the content of embedded software. At the same time, it is a technology to realize the whole process from determining the system function, to software/hardware partition, and complete the design. From the narrow point of view, it is the integration of the core chip of the information system, which is the integration of the key components of the system on a chip; From a broad perspective, an SoC is a micro-miniature system, if the central processing unit (CPU) is the brain, then the SoC is a system that includes the brain, heart, eyes and hands. The academic community at home and abroad generally tends to define SoC as the integration of microprocessor, analog IP core, digital IP core and memory (or off-chip storage control interface) on a single chip, which is usually customized by customers, or a standard product for a specific purpose.
