Basic Special Bus
Cycle
Figure 5-20 shows a basic special bus cycle, which is defined
during ADS by D/C = 0, M/IO = 0, and W/R = 1 and differenti-
ated by BE7–BE0 and A31–A3. In this example, BE7–BE0
= FBh and A31–A3 = 0, so it is the special cycle the processor
generates after executing a HLT instruction. System logic must
respond with BRDY.
All special bus cycles serialize the pipeline. EWBE is not
checked prior to running special bus cycles (all of which have
W/R =1), so EWBE has no effect on any special bus cycles.
