System Bus Routing Guidelines
5.2.3 BR[3:0]# Routing Guidelines
Connect BR[3:0]# as shown in Figure 5-3. The total bus length must be less than 20.2 inches.
BR3# and BR2# are not used and are pulled to VCC_CPU. The designer may pull-up BR[3:2]
independantly instead of tying the lines between the processors.
