Abstract
A data bus bridge circuit and method are provided for coupling a slave device with a data bus in a system in which data words are transferred between a master device and the slave device over the data bus. The bridge circuit removes master-induced stalls of burst transfers by converting those burst transfers into a plurality of separate, independent sub-bursts.
