Data

DB0

Eight data-bit signals, plus a parity-bit signal that

 

 

 

 

 

DB1

form a DATA BUS. DB(7) is the most significant

 

 

 

 

 

DB2

bit and has the highest priority during the

 

 

 

 

 

DB3

ARBITRATION phase. Bit number, significance,

 

 

 

 

 

DB4

and priority decrease downward to DB(0).

 

 

 

 

 

DB5

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DB6

A data bit is defined as one when the signal value is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DB7

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Data Bus n)

true. A data bit is defined as zero when the signal

 

 

 

 

 

 

value is false. Data parity DB(P) shall be odd.

 

 

 

 

 

DBP

Parity is undefined during the ARBITRATION

 

 

 

 

 

(Data Bus

phase.

SEL

An “ORtied” signal used either by an initiator to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Select)

select a target or by a target to reselect an initiator

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RST

An “ORtied” signal that indicates the RESET

C/ D

The C/D, I/O, and MSG signals are used to

 

 

 

 

 

(Control/Data)

distinguish between the different information

 

 

 

 

 

transfer phases.

MSG

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

REQ

During an information transfer phase, the target uses

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Request)

this signal to request the initiator to transfer data

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ACK

A signal driven by an initiator to indicate an
