ARM Architecture - Bus Architecture
In a complex ARM system, how does the bridge between AHB and APB buses manage data transfer?
AIt disables APB when AHB is active
BIt speeds up APB transactions to match AHB speed
CIt converts high-speed AHB transactions to simpler APB transactions
DIt merges APB and AHB buses into one unified bus
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand bridge function

    The bridge adapts AHB's complex, high-speed transactions to APB's simpler protocol.
  2. Step 2: Analyze options

    Bridge does not speed up APB or merge buses; it translates transactions for compatibility.
  3. Final Answer:

    It converts high-speed AHB transactions to simpler APB transactions -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Bridge translates AHB to APB protocol [OK]
Quick Trick: Bridge adapts AHB to APB protocol [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Thinking bridge speeds up APB
  • Assuming buses merge
