Overview

The SPI to AHB bridge is an SPI slave that provides a link between a SPI bus (that consists of two data signals, one clock signal and one select signal) and AMBA AHB.

On the SPI bus the slave acts as an SPI memory device where accesses to the slave are translated to AMBA accesses. The core can translate SPI accesses to AMBA byte, half-word or word accesses. The access size to use is configurable via the SPI bus.

Key features

  • Provides bridge between SPI (slave) and AMBA AHB (master)
  • Optional AMBA APB interface
  • SPI mode selected at implementation time
  • AMBA access size is dynamically programmable
  • Instruction set similar to common SPI Flash memory devices
  • Optional protection is specified memory area(s)

An Implementation Study on Fault Tolerant LEON-3 Processor System

The paper presents a case study on implementation of the fault tolerant LEON-3 processor system on a chip for space applications. The single-event upset (SEU) tolerance is provided by design. The technique applied detects and corrects up to 4 errors in the register file and caches. The implementation details and system-on-chip features are summarized.
