Dynamic Bus Sizing on Avalon Bus

Thanks for your response

1) Define the port as an 8-bit native slave (Avalon Register Slave in the interface to user logic). Two accesses will be required for each 16-bit read or write, but at least it should work.[/b]

I&#39;ve tried this but a register slave doesn&#39;t use dynamic bus sizing and makes one single access everytime. So to access a 16-bit word through a 8-bit port needs software overhead.

2) Create a bridge component with a 16-bit native aligned slave and a 16-bit master. [/b]

I realized now that I have to add a special interface anyhow because the DSPs are using big endian coding internally.
