3.6.1 Buffering the Data Bus
The BIU generates two control signals, DEN and DT/R, to control bidirectional buffers or trans-
ceivers. The timing relationship of DEN and DT/R is shown in Figure 3-30. The following con-
ditions require transceivers:
•
The capacitive load on the address/data bus gets too large.
•
The current load on the address/data bus exceeds device specifications.
•
Additional V
OL
and V
OH
drive is required.
•
A memory or I/O device cannot float its outputs in time to prevent bus contention, even at
reset.

and
DT/R Timing Relationships
The circuit shown in Figure 3-31 illustrates how to use transceivers to buffer the address/data bus.
The connection between the processor and the transceiver is known as the local bus. A connection
between the transceiver and other memory or I/O devices is known as the buffered bus. A fully
buffered system has no devices attached to the local bus. A partially buffered system has devices
on both the local and buffered buses.
