Enabling and Disabling TCMs
TCM Mapping
Supported Transfers
Prior to any enabling step, the user should configure the TCM sizes in HMATRIX TCM register.
Then enabling TCMs is performed by using TCM region register (register 9) in CP15. The user
should use the same sizes as those put in HMATRIX TCM register. For further details and pro-
gramming tips, please refer to chapter 2.3 in ARM926EJ-S TRM, ref. DDI0222B.
The TCMs can be located anywhere in the memory map, with a single region available for ITCM
and a separate region available for DTCM. The TCMs are physically addressed and can be
placed anywhere in physical address space. However, the base address of a TCM must be
aligned to its size, and the DTCM and ITCM regions must not overlap. TCM mapping is per-
formed by using TCM region register (register 9) in CP15. The user should input the right
mapping address for TCMs.
The ARM926EJ-S features a Bus Interface Unit (BIU) that arbitrates and schedules AHB
requests. The BIU implements a multi-layer AHB, based on the AHB-Lite protocol, that enables
parallel access paths between multiple AHB masters and slaves in a system. This is achieved by
using a more complex interconnection matrix and gives the benefit of increased overall bus
bandwidth, and a more flexible system architecture.
The multi-master bus architecture has a number of benefits:
The ARM926EJ-S processor performs all AHB accesses as single word, bursts of four words, or
bursts of eight words. Any ARM9EJ-S core request that is not 1, 4, 8 words in size is split into
packets of these sizes. Note that the Atmel bus is AHB-Lite protocol compliant, hence it does not
support split and retry requests.
