6.1.5. Bridges Between Avalon® and AXI Interfaces

When designing a Platform Designer system, you can make connections between AXI and Avalon® interfaces without the use of explicitly-instantiated bridges; the interconnect provides all necessary bridging logic. However, this does not prevent the use of explicit bridges to separate the AXI and Avalon® domains. Using an explicit Avalon® memory mapped bridge to separate the AXI and Avalon® domains reduces the amount of bridging logic in the interconnect at the expense of concurrency, as the following example shows:
