Summary
Input
AB-04
The system logic can assert HOLD to gain control of the
processor’s bus. When HOLD is sampled asserted, the processor
completes the current bus cycles, floats the processor bus, and
asserts HLDA in an acknowledgment that these events have
been completed.
Sampled
The processor samples HOLD on every clock edge. If a
processor cycle is in progress while HOLD is sampled asserted,
HLDA is asserted one clock edge after the last BRDY # of the
cycle is sampled asserted. If the bus is idle, HLDA is asserted
one clock edge after HOLD is sampled asserted. HOLD is
recognized while INIT and RESET are sampled asserted.
