On all cycles on 8-bit bus, BHE remains high (inactive)
Note:
On the external bus, ALL XA-H4 reads are 16-bit reads. If the CPU instruction only specifies 8-bits, then the CPU uses the appropriate byte, and discards the
extra byte. Thus, “8-Bit Reads” and “16-Bit Reads” appear to be identical on the bus. On an 8-bit bus, this will appear as two consecutive 8-bit reads even
though the CPU will only use one of the two bytes.
WARNING: Some 8-bit I/O devices (especially FIFOS) cannot operate correctly with 2 bytes being read for a one byte read. The most common (and least expensive)
solution is to operate these 8-bit devices on a 16-bit bus, and access them in software on all odd byte (or all even byte) boundaries. An added benefit of this tech-
nique is that byte reads are faster than on an 8-bit bus, because only 1 word is fetched (a single read) instead of 2 consecutive bytes.
