W90N745CD/W90N745CDG
Big endian
In Big endian format, the W90N745 stores the most significant byte of a word at the lowest numbered
byte, and the least significant byte at the highest-numbered byte. So the byte at address 0 of the memory
system connects to data lines 31 through 24.
For a word aligned address A, Figure 6.2.3 shows how the half-word at addresses A and A+2, and the
bytes at addresses A, A+1, A+2, and A+3 map on to each other when the D14 pin is Low.

6.2.4.2. Connection of External Memory with Various Data Width
The system diagram for W90N745 connecting with the external memory is shown in Figure 6.2.4. Below
tables (Table 6.2.3 through Table 6.2.14) show the program/data path between CPU register and the
external memory using little / big endian and word/half-word/byte access.
