Figure 76: BBus bridge block diagram

Notes:

The AHB bus and BBus clock domains are asynchronous to each other.

A 4-entry bidirectional FIFO is implemented in the BBus-to-AHB data path to
allow burst transfers.

The FIFO size matches the maximum burst size supported by the BBus
masters.

The AHB-to-BBus data path does not support burst transfers, allowing only a
single entry bidirectional FIFO to be implemented in the data path. FIFO
size accommodates only one transaction at a time.
