Functional Overview
Registered HWDATA
The interconnect used within the AHB MC contains combinatorial paths for the write data. To improve the synthesis timing, HWDATA is registered and makes these paths internal to the design.
Big-endian 32-bit mode
The AHB MC supports the option of storing data to memory in

Removal of AHB error response logic
The internal protocol used within AHB MC supports the concept of errors. However none of the components used ever generate errors. This means that the bridge does not require any logic to generate AHB errors because there are no circumstances when errors can be generated.
2.3.2AHB to APB bridge operation
The internal memory controller has an APB configuration port. The AHB configuration port is mapped to it using an AHB to APB bridge. Figure
