AHB clocking
The ARM926EJ-S design uses a single clock, CLK. To run the ARM926EJ-S processor
at a higher frequency than the AHB system bus, a separate AHB clock enable for each
of the two bus masters is required (in a multi-AHB system each AHB system can be
running at a different frequency):

Figure 6-3 AHB clock relationships
For single and multi-layer AHB systems, DHCLKEN and IHCLKEN must be tied
together. If HCLK and CLK are the same frequency, the relevant HCLKEN input (or
inputs) must be tied HIGH.

CLK and HCLK must be synchronous. The skew between CLK and HCLK must be
minimized.

External Abort limitations
Only certain types of accesses cause an External Abort if an Error response is returned
for an AHB transfer. These are:
for an AHB transfer. These are:
•
page table walk
•
noncached read
•
nonbuffered write
•
noncached read-lock-write (SWP).
