15 years agoWere you planning on connecting multiple AMB devices together in SOPC Builder? If so, then it would probably be difficult, as SOPC Builder does not support the AMB protocol directly. Qsys is supposed to be supporting extra bus protocols, but you will have to wait.
If you are just trying to interface an AMB device to an Avalon bus, then you need to create an AHB-to-Avalon-MM master bridge (for an AHB bus master), or an Avalon-MM slave to AHB bus (to communicate with a peripheral). If you device interface only supports single transaction read/write, then the interface is pretty simple. If you want burst-mode support, then that is also possible, but will involve a little more work. Cheers, Dave
