BUS PRIORITIES

OVERVIEW

The bus arbitration logic determines the priorities of bus masters. It supports a combination of rotation priority
mode and fixed priority mode.

BUS PRIORITY MAP

The S3C2440A holds 13 bus masters. They include DRAM refresh controller, LCD_DMA, CAMIF DMA, DMA0,
DMA1, DMA2, DMA3, USB_HOST_DMA, EXT_BUS_MASTER, Test interface controller (TIC) and ARM920T. The
following list shows the priorities among these bus masters after a reset:

1. DRAM refresh controller

2. LCD_DMA

3. CAMIF codec DMA

4. CAMIF preview DMA

5. DMA0

6. DMA1

7. DMA2

8. DMA3

9. USB host DMA

10. External bus master

11. TIC

12. ARM920T

13. Reserved

Among these bus masters, the four DMAs (DMA0, DMA1, DMA2 and DMA3) operate under rotation priority, while
the others run under fixed priority.
