However, in many cases, a level-triggeredinterrupt is preferred because:If the interrupt event occurred when the processor is reset, the interrupt eve

The free running clock, system clock and debug clock( except the clock for the debug interface and DAP interface on Cortex M3/M4 processors) must be s

The SysTick timers in the Cortex-M processors support external reference " clock." Thechnically the reference "clock" in not a clock signal, as it is

Almost all the AMBA specifications have the follwing characterisic:Synchronous operations - use only clock rising edge for flip-flops, friendly to com

In AMBA 2 AHB and AHB Lite, the HPROT signal contains 4bits, each of them has a different function:When accessing to normal memories(not peripherals),

There are several AHB data phase signals. For signals from bus masters to slavesTable 3.16 : Additional AHB data phase signals from bus masters to bus
