AWVALIDM

Output

CLKIN

Indicates address and control are valid.

Write data channel

WDATAM[63:0]

Output

CLKIN

Write data.

WIDM[3:0]

Output

CLKIN

The identification tag for the write data group of signals.

WLASTM

Output

CLKIN

Indicates the last data transfer of a burst.

WREADYM

Input

CLKIN

Indicates that the slave is ready to accept write data

WSTRBM[7:0]

Output

CLKIN

Write strobes used to indicate which byte lanes must be updated.

WVALIDM

Output

CLKIN

Indicates address and control are valid.

Write response channel

BIDM [3:0]

Input

CLKIN

The identification tag for the write response signal.

BREADYM

Output

CLKIN

Indicates that the core is ready to accept write response.

BRESPM[1:0]

Input

CLKIN

Write response.

BVALIDM

Input

CLKIN

Indicates that a valid write response is available.

Read address channel

ARADDRM[31:0]

Output

CLKIN

Instruction fetch burst start address.

ARBURSTM[1:0]

Output

CLKIN

Burst type.

ARCACHEM[3:0]

Output

CLKIN

Provides decode information for outer attributes:
b0000 = Strongly Ordered.
b0001 = Device.
b0011 = Normal, Non-cacheable.
b0110 = Normal, Cacheable. write-through.
b1111 = Normal, Cacheable. write-back, write allocation.
b0111 = Normal, Cacheable. write-back, no write allocation.

Note

The AXI specification describes these encodings using the
pre-ARMv6 terms such as cacheable-bufferable. These terms
are equivalent to the ARMv6 memory-type descriptions such as
Normal, Non-cacheable used here.

ARIDM[3:0]

Output

CLKIN

Identification tag for the read address group of signals

ARLENM [3:0]

Output

CLKIN

Instruction fetch burst length.

ARLOCKM[1:0]

Output

CLKIN

Lock signal.

ARPROTM[2:0]

Output

CLKIN

Protection signals provide addition information about a bus
access.

ARREADYM

Input

CLKIN

Address ready. The slave uses this signal to indicate that it can
accept the address.

ARSIZEM[2:0]

Output

CLKIN

Indicates the size of the transfer.
