ENHANCED TT1™ SWITCH FABRIC
keeps WAIT_L asserted through bus turn-around cycle (effectively a wait cycle). The target de-asserts
WAIT_L once the first valid data byte is on the bus. VALID_L must be high for at least two rising clocks
before the next cycle. There is an additional bus turn-around cycle during the Recover cycle. This is the
fastest read cycle: there is always at least one bus turn-around cycle whenever AD is tri-stated. The
master must drive the AD signals before the next rising edge of the clock after the VALID_L is deasserted.

1.7.1.9 A Read Cycle - Two Waits
This is the same as a single wait read cycle except that there is an extra wait cycle before D31:24 are valid
and WAIT_L is de-asserted.

1.7.1.10 Interrupts
Two active high interrupt lines are provided. INT_HI is for “emergency” interrupts such as a card failing.
INT_LO is for non-emergency interrupts such as a device requesting to be polled for some reason.
Interrupts are asserted and de-asserted synchronously with respect to the clock. Interrupts can be
asserted at any time, even during an access.
