A.1 AXI interface<br />

Signal Descriptions<br />

For complete descriptions of AXI interface signals, see the AMBA AXI Protocol Specification.<br />

Table A-1 shows the AXI interface signals that have been added or that have different<br />

definitions for the <strong>Cortex</strong>-<strong>A8</strong> processor.<br />

Signal I/O Reset Description<br />

A64n128 I - Statically selects 64-bit or 128-bit AXI bus width:<br />

0 = 128-bit bus width<br />

1 = 64-bit bus width.<br />

This pin is only sampled during reset of the processor.<br />

Table A-1 AXI interface<br />

ACLKEN I - AXI clock gate enable:<br />

0 = AXI clock disabled<br />

1 = AXI clock enabled.<br />

Note<br />

The rising edge of the internal ACLK signal comes two CLK cycles after the<br />

CLK cycle in which ACLKEN is asserted. See Chapter 10 Clock, Reset, and<br />

Power Control.<br />

ARCACHE[3:0]<br />

and<br />

AWCACHE[3:0]<br />

O Undefined Read or write cache type:<br />

b0000 = strongly ordered<br />

b0001 = device<br />

b0010 = reserved<br />

b0011 = normal noncacheable<br />

b0100 and b0101 = reserved<br />

b0110 = cacheable write-through, allocate on reads only<br />

b0111 = cacheable write-back, allocate on reads only<br />

b1000 to b1110 = reserved<br />

b1111 = cacheable write-back, allocate on both reads and writes.<br />
