Avalon to PCIe Address Translation Settings
Number of address pages
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32,
64, 128, 256, 512
Specifies the number of pages required to translate
Avalon-MM addresses to PCI Express addresses
before a request packet is sent to the Transaction
Layer. Each of the 512 possible entries corresponds to
a base address of the PCI Express memory segment of
a specific size. This parameter is only necessary when
you select 32-bit addressing.
Size of address pages
4 KBytes–4
GBytes
Specifies the size of each memory segment. Each
memory segment must be the same size. Refer to
Avalon-MM-to-PCI Express Address Translation
Algorithm for 32-Bit Bridge for more information
about address translation. This parameter is only
necessary when you select 32-bit addressing.
