2 years agoYes,
1.if I set ava MM bridge to 32 data width and 8 symbol width, then each time the ava mm bridge will read 32 bit or 32*8 = 256 bit?
2.what is the use of symbol width?
3.if im transferring a 48 bit data from ip to hps through avalon mm bridge, will it transfer 2 32-bit long words?
Thank you.

1) No, it's still a physical 32-bit bus so 32 bits.
2) Symbol width is for data organization. With a 32 bit bus and a symbol width of 8 (the default), 4 symbols would be transferred per clock cycle.
3) If your bridge is set to 32 bits wide, then yes.
