2.9 Basic Timing
2.9.1 Overview
The CPU is driven by a system clock, denoted by the symbol φ. The period from one rising edge
of φ to the next is referred to as a “state.” The memory cycle or bus cycle consists of one, two, or
three states. Different methods are used to access on-chip memory, on-chip supporting modules,
and the external address space.
2.9.2 On-Chip Memory (ROM, RAM)
On-chip memory is accessed in one state. The data bus is 16 bits wide, permitting both byte and
word transfer instruction. Figure 2.17 shows the on-chip memory access cycle. Figure 2.18 shows
the pin states.
