Slave to Master Interface Switch Connectivity Map
The table shown This Figure allows the configuration of the switch to optimize connectivity. By default full connectivity is enabled meaning that every slave interface is connected to every master interface. Deselecting a checkbox removes the connection from the slave interface listed in the column to the master interface in the row. Removing connections is desirable when it is known that a slave interface is never going to send transfers to a particular master interface. This removes unnecessary logic resulting in smaller area utilization, routing and logic complexity.
IMPORTANT: No interface should be left without connectivity. Every slave interface must have connectivity to at least one master interface. Conversely, every master interface must have connectivity to at least one slave interface.
