The INFORMATION TRANSFER phases use one or more REQ/ACK handshakes to control the information transfer Each REQ/ACK handshake allows the transfer of one byte of information. During the INFORMATION TRANSFER phases the BSY signal shall remain true and the SEL signal shall remain false. Additionally, during the INFORMATION TRANSFER phases, the target shall continuously envelope the REQ/ACK handshake(s) with the C/D, I/O and MSG signals in such a manner that these control signals are valid for a bus settle delay before the assertion of the REQ signal of the first handshake. These control signals remain valid until after the negation of the ACK signal at the end of the handshake of the last transfer of the phase.

4.3.4.1Asynchronous information transfer

The target shall control the direction of information transfer by means of the I/O signal. When the I/O signal is true, information shall be transferred from the target to the initiator When the I/O signal is false, information shall be transferred from the initiator to the target.

(a)Asynchronous transfer from target to initiator

If the I/O signal is true (transfer to the initiator), the target shall first drive the DB(7-O, P) signals to their desired values, delay at least one deskew delay plus a cable skew delay then assert the REQ signal. The DB (7-0, P) signals shall remain valid until the ACK signal is true at the target. The initiator shall read the DB(7-0, P) signals after the REQ signal is true then indicate its acceptance of the data by asserting the ACK signal. when the ACK signal becomes true at the target, the target may change or release the DB(7-O P) signals and shall negate the REQ signal. After the REQ signal is false, the initiator shall then negate the ACK signal.

After the ACK signal is false, the target may continue the transfer by driving the DB (7-0, P) signals and asserting the REQ signal, as previously described.
