2.3.7.1.2 Slot Cycle Limit Arbitration

The MATRIX contains specific logic to break long accesses, such as very long bursts on a very slow client (e.g., an external low speed memory). At each arbitration time, a counter is loaded with the value previously written in MATRIX_SCFGx.SLOT_CYCLE and decreased at each clock cycle. When the counter elapses, the arbiter has the ability to re-arbitrate at the end of the current system bus access cycle.

The default reset value of MATRIX_SCFGx.SLOT_CYCLE does not need to be changed.

Warning: This feature cannot prevent any client from locking its access indefinitely.
