about Merlin Burst Adapter

Hello, Now I'm writing an interface between Avalon bus and a LSI, changing Avalon bus signals(read, write,ect) to LSI control signals. An interface can deal with burst transfer is preferred. ...

Thanks for you answer, Dave.

The LSI need many clock cycles to return readdata, and also need many cycles to complete a write transfer.

If the interface doesn't support burst transfer, what'll happen when the Nios starting a burst transfer? The Merlin Burst Adapter will translate burst transfer into individual salve transfers?

regards,
