4 System configuration
4.7.1 Memory bridge control signals
Each memory bridge has seven control signals as defined in Table 8.
Bridge control bit field
1:0
4:2

Control name Control function
MODE[1:0]
LATENCY[2:0]
SW_RESET
00: Sync (bypass) bridge
01: Semisync with no retime registers
10: Semisync with one retime register
11: Async with two retime registers
Sets FIFO latency from 0 to 7 cycles.
0: Software reset inactive
1: Software reset active
STROBE
The above control signals are latched in the bridge on the rising
edge of this strobe bit

4.7.2
Memory bridge status
The memory bridge control signals are looped back to the ST40RA166 comms subsystem
SYS_STAT1 register for test purposes. The format of this read-only register is shown in
Section 4.8.4.1: SYSCONF.SYS_STAT1. on page 24.
4.7.3
Changing control of a memory bridge
At reset all these bridges are set to be synchronous. After reset and boot the function of these
memory bridges can be changed. See Section 4.8.4: SYSCONF registers on page 24. The
procedure for changing the control of a memory bridge is given below.
1 Ensure no initiators are accessing the subsystem the bridge is connected to and ensure the
subsystem cannot initiate any requests to the SuperHyway.
2 Stop the clock to the subsystem.
3 Change the memory bridge configuration using the SYS_CONF.SYS_CONF1 register as detailed
in Table 8.
4 Restart the clock to the subsystem and reinitialize the system.
