Output: From ADS
until last expected BRDY of the bus
cycle.
Input: Same clock as EADS
. A4–A3 are disabled for input.

BF (BF1–BF0) I Falling edge of RESET. pullup
BOFF
I Every clock.
BRDY
I
Every clock, from one clock after ADS
until the last
expected BRDY
of the bus cycle.
BRDYC
I (same as BRDY) pullup
BREQ O
First clock of every bus cycle (same as ADS
), cache store,
cache-tag recovery, and aliased cache load. Asserted con-
tinuously while processor is held off bus and needs
access to continue.
BUSCHK
I Every BRDY. Recognized at the next instruction boundary. pullup
CACHE
O
From ADS
until the last expected BRDY of the bus cycle.
Driven for all reads; only driven for writes during write-
backs.
BOFF
+1 or
HLDA
CLK I Always.
Notes:
1. Can be driven asynchronously or synchronously.
2. The term clock means bus clock (CLK). “+n” means n CLKs later.
3. “+n” means n CLKs after the named signal is sampled active. All outputs and bidirectionals are floated during the float test (FLUSH
at RESET).
