Notes

25.CE = HIGH for the duration of the above timing (both write and read cycle).

26.I/O0R = I/O0L = LOW (request semaphore); CER = CEL = HIGH

27.Semaphores are reset (available to both ports) at cycle start.

28.If tSPS is violated, the semaphore will definitely be obtained by one side or the other, but there is no guarantee which side will control the semaphore.
