7.3.3 External Bus Mastership
The W90N740 can receive and acknowledge bus request signals that are generated by an external bus
master. When the CPU asserts an external bus acknowledge signal, mastership is granted to the
external bus master, assuming the external bus request is still active.
When the external bus acknowledge signal is active, the W90N740’s memory interface signals go to high
impedance state so that the external bus master can drive the required external memory interface
signals.
The W90N740 does not perform SDRAM refreshes when it is not the bus master. When an external bus
master is in control of the external bus, and if it retains control for a long period of time, it must assume
the responsibility of performing the necessary SDRAM refresh operations.
