Note that 60x bus accesses that hit a bank allocated to the local bus are transferred to the
local bus. However, local bus accesses that hit a bank allocated to the 60x bus are ignored.

10.6.1 Requests

An internal or external deviceÕs request for a memory access initiates one of the following
patterns (MxMR[OP] = 00):

¥

Read single-beat pattern (RSS)

¥

Read burst cycle pattern (RBS)

¥

Write single-beat pattern (WSS)

¥

Write burst cycle pattern (WBS)

These patterns are described in Section 10.6.1.1, ÒMemory Access Requests.Ó

A UPM refresh timer request pattern initiates a refresh timer pattern (PTS), as described in
Section 10.6.1.2, ÒUPM Refresh Timer Requests.Ó

An exception (caused by a soft reset or the assertion of TEA) occurring while another UPM
pattern is running initiates an exception condition pattern (EXS).

A special pattern in the RAM array is associated with each of these cycle type. Figure 10-56
shows the start addresses of these patterns in the UPM RAM, according to cycle type.

RUN

commands (MxMR[OP] = 11), however, can initiate patterns starting at any of the 64 UPM
RAM words.
