INCR bursts
The network converts all input INCR bursts that complete within a single output data width into
an INCR1 of the minimum SIZE possible, and it packs all INCR bursts into INCR bursts of the
optimum size possible. Table 2-3 shows how the network converts INCR bursts when it upsizes
them.
WRAP bursts
All WRAP bursts are either passed through unconverted as WRAP bursts, or converted to one
or two INCR bursts of the output bus. Table 2-4 shows how the network converts WRAP bursts
when it upsizes them from 64-bit to 128-bit, that is, a ratio of 1:2.
Note
The network converts input WRAP bursts with a total payload that is less than the output data
width to a single INCR.
Fixed bursts
All FIXED bursts pass through unconverted.
Bypass merge
You can configure the upsizer function to have a programmable bit named
bypass_merge
. If
bypass_merge
is asserted, the network does not alter any transactions that could pass through
legally without alteration.
