Squall II Module Master Timing
Squall II Module circuits may become masters of the shared bus to perform DMA operations to the
shared DRAM. DMA controllers gain control of the bus via the SQBR and SQBG signals.
All signals, except the interrupt signals, are synchronous to the processor's clock (PLCK). Set up and
hold times must be observed for every rising clock edge. Because of the high clock rates, the following
signals must be driven high before they are three-stated: ADS, BLAST, EXTEND, and LOCK. This
ensures that valid levels are observed on every rising clock edge.
DMA controllers gain control of the bus via the SQBR and SQBG signals. Memory cycles may then
proceed with the same ADS, BLAST, and READY protocol used by the i960 Cx, Jx, and Hx processors.
