In Interlaken, a burst is defined as the number of 64-bit data words between two control words. Data for different channels can be interleaved between control words. The Segmented LBUS requires that bursts, not ending with an EOP, be multiples of the full width of the segmented LBUS. Consequently, for a Segmented LBUS with four segments, bursts, not ending with an EOP, must be 64-bytes, 128-bytes, 192-bytes, 256-bytes, and so forth.
The Interlaken specification describes an enhanced scheduling algorithm. The previous example is the same as a scheduler with the enhanced algorithm that has a BurstMin of 64-bytes.
