External Bus
10.3.5.1 Write Burst

Figure10-9 shows a four word write caused by the eviction of a half cache line. In this case, the

Len is 0x5 indicating four words. DValid is asserted for two consecutive cycles here, but the two

cycles could be spread out. In this case the Intel® 80200 processor drives the data as requested,

along with BE# of 0x00 each cycle, indicating that all the bytes are being written.
