12.5 Operating Description
12.5.1 Endian/Access Size and Data Alignment
This LSI supports big endian, in which the 0 address is the most significant byte (MSByte) in the
byte data.
Three data bus widths (8 bits, 16 bits, and 32 bits) are available for normal memory and byte-
selection SRAM. Two data bus width (16 bits and 32 bits) are available for SDRAM. Data bus
width for MPX-IO is fixed to 32 bits. Data alignment is performed in accordance with the data bus
width of the device. This also means that when longword data is read from a byte-width device,
the read operation must be done four times. In this LSI, data alignment and conversion of data
length is performed automatically between the respective interfaces.
Table 12.5 through 12.7 show the relationship between device data width and access unit.
