    Hi LEO,

    The most common use of a wrap is a critical word first line load for the cache.

    In these cases the core will issue a wrap burst with total length equal to the length of the cache line, but rather than starting at the first address in the cache line it will start at the "critical word" (the word that the user program asked for when the cache miss occured).

    Cheers,

    I
