Should the External Memory XINTF on the Memory Map for F28335 32bits instead of 16 bit?

The memory map of F28335 is confusing to me. The External memory XINTF has a 32 bit data bus. However, the memory map for zone0/6/7 is only 16bits. Why is that?

For example, XINTF Zone 6 is 1M x 16 on the memory map, should it be 1M x 32?

Could it be the memory map used here is evolved from F281x memory map and failed to change to 32 bit?

    Hainan,

    The F2833x XINTF can be configured for 16-bit or 32-bit wide data bus.  But that doesn't change the address space.  The C28x address space is in 16-bit words.  For example, address 0x10_0000 is a 16-bit word.  Address 0x10_0000 is the next 16-bit word.  If you did a 32-bit read of address 0x10_0000, you would read the 16-bits from address 0x10_0000 and the 16-bits at address 0x10_0001.  I believe the compiler would have the MSW at 0x10_0001, and the LSW at 0x10_0000.

    So the memory map in the datasheet is correct.  Zone 0 is 4Kx16, Zone 6 is 1Mx16, and Zone 7 is 1Mx16 in size.

    Regards,
