36.2 Block diagram
The FSMC consists of four main blocks:
• The AHB interface (including the FSMC configuration registers)
• The NOR Flash/PSRAM controller
• The NAND Flash/PC Card controller
• The external device interface
The block diagram is shown in Figure 434.

36.3 AHB interface
The AHB slave interface enables internal CPUs and other bus master peripherals to access
the external static memories.
AHB transactions are translated into the external device protocol. In particular, if the
selected external memory is 16 or 8 bits wide, 32-bit wide transactions on the AHB are split
into consecutive 16- or 8-bit accesses. The FSMC Chip Select (FSMC_NEx) does not
