60x Bus Protocol Overview

Typically, 60x bus accesses consist of address and data tenures, which in turn each consist of three
phases—arbitration, transfer, and termination, as shown in Figure 8-3.. The independence of the tenures is
indicated by showing the data tenure overlap the next address tenure, which allows split-bus transactions
to be implemented at the system level in multiprocessor systems.

Figure 8-3

shows a data transfer that

consists of a single-beat transfer of as many as 256 bits. Four-beat burst transfers of 32-byte cache blocks
