17 years ago --- Quote Start --- The bridge is required when you want to connect an external (i.e. off-chip) peripheral --- Quote End --- In this case is the DRAM controller not an on chip peripheral? My system is as follows: I have an external AVR micro which I want to connect to the DRAM. I also have an external video decoder chip which I want to connect to DRAM. I use the SOPC DRAM controller and link it to an Avalon master that I created. The master has external address,data and control lines. I now want to use some FPGA logic to connect decoder and micro to this Avalon master. Is this where the bridge comes in? I looked at the bridge component but did not see any option to add non avalon lines?
