5.2 Building an APB Slave Expansion Board
To build an APB peripheral or slave that connects to the motherboard, you need the following
signals:
P_D a number of data bits
P_A a number of address bits
P_STB strobe signal
P_WRITE read/write signal
P_SELEX select signal reserved for expansion devices
5.2.1 System clock and reset
If the application requires a system clock and reset:
B_RES[2:0] only B_RES[2] is usually required
B_CLK or nB_CLK if other clock edge is required
5.2.2 Interrupts
If the slave generates interrupts:
nINTAPB[2:0] one or more of these IRQ sources
nFIQSRC possibly the FIQ source
