a reference for testing.
2.4 ASYNCHRONOUS BUS CONTROL
The following signals control asynchronous data transfers: address strobe, read/write, early
read/write, data strobe, upper data strobe, lower data strobe, read-modify-write, data trans-
fer size, and data transfer acknowledge. These signals are described in the following para-
graphs.
2.4.1 Address Strobe (ASB)
This active low, three-state signal indicates that the information on the address bus is a valid
address.
2.4.2 Read/Write (RWB) and Early Read/Write (ERWB)
The active-low, three-state RWB output signal defines the data bus transfer as a read or
write cycle. The active-low, three-state ERWB output signal indicates a write cycle one-half
clock cycle earlier than the read/write signal. Negation times are the same for both signals.
These signals relate to the data strobe signals described in the following paragraphs.
