While most of the blocks are fairly independent, the FLASH, SDRAM, and CompactFlash
interfaces share common address and data busses. While this results in a fairly complex
muxing scheme for these datapaths it is necessary to keep the pin count within an acceptable
range.

The following sections will discuss the implementation of each of these functional blocks and
outline the hardware and software resources needed to support each.

IP Bus Controller

The IP Bus Controller block performs two functions: block address decoding and IP bus
arbitration.

The address decode block generates device selects for the IP block that is the target of the
transfer. It also controls the multiplexers that select the response signals from the target of the
transfer (ACK, DOUT, etc.).

IP bus arbitration between access requests from the CPU Interface and the LCD Controller are
handled by using a simple rotating priority scheme. The arbiter block also controls the
multiplexers that select which set of transfer control signals (RD, WR, etc.) control the transfer.

The FPGA device resources used to implement this block include an estimated 32 CLBs but no
I/O pads. There is no software required to support this block.
