A method for bus bridging includes providing a bus interface device that is coupled between at least one module bus and at least one advanced extensible interface (AXI) bus for translating bus requests between the module bus and the AXI bus. The bus interface device includes logic. The logic is configured to receive a read/write (R/W) request that is one of a module bus protocol R/W request and an AXI bus protocol R/W request and to buffer the R/W request to provide a buffered R/W request. The logic translates the buffered R/W request to a first AXI protocol conforming request if the buffered R/W request is the module bus protocol R/W request and translates the buffered R/W request to a first module bus protocol conforming request if the buffered R/W request is the AXI bus protocol R/W request. The translated requests are transmitted to their respective bus.
