16-Bit-Wide Memory Interface

10-30

Case 6: 16-Bit-Wide Memory with 32-Bit Data-Type Size

When the data type size is 32 bits, the ’C32 does not shift the internal address
before presenting it to the external address pins. In this case, the memory
interface copies the value of the internal address bus to the respective external
address pins. The memory interface also toggles STRBx_B3 / A

–1

twice to

perform two 16-bit memory accesses. In the consecutive memory accesses,
the memory interface activates STRBx_B1 and STRBx_B0. In summary, the
memory interface seems to add one wait state to the 32-bit data access.
Figure 10–17 depicts a functional diagram of the memory interface for 16-bit
wide memory with 32-bit data type size.
