4.3.3.3 Burst Cacheable Cycles
Figure 4-15 illustrates a burst mode cache fill. As in Figure 4-14, the transfer becomes a cache
line fill when the external system asserts KEN# at the end of the first clock in the cycle.
The external system informs the Intel486 processor that it will burst the line in by asserting
BRDY# at the end of the first cycle in the transfer.
Note that during a burst cycle, ADS# is only driven with the first address.
