**8289 Bus Arbiter (808x) c79
***Notes:...
***Info:
The Intel 8289 Bus Arbiter is a 20-pin, 5-volt-only bipolar component
for use with medium to large iAPX 86, 88 multimaster/multiprocessing
systems. The 8289 provides system bus arbitration for systems with
multiple bus masters, such as an 8086 CPU with 8089 IOP in its REMOTE
mode, while providing bipolar buffering and drive capability.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The 8289 Bus Arbiter operates in conjunction with the 8288 Bus
Controller to interface iAPX 86, 88 processors to a multi-master
system bus (both the iAPX 86 and iAPX 88 are configured in their max
mode). The processor is unaware of the arbiter's existence and issues
commands as though it has exclusive use of the system bus. If the
processor does not have the use of the multi-master system bus, the
arbiter prevents the Bus Controller (8288), the data transceivers and
the address latches from accessing the system bus (e.g. all bus driver
outputs are forced into the high impedance state). Since the command
sequence was not issued by the 8288, the system bus will appear as
"Not Ready" and the processor will enter wait states. The processor
will remain in Wait until the Bus Arbiter acquires the use of the
multi-master system bus whereupon the arbiter will allow the bus
controller, the data transceivers, and the address latches to access
the system. Typically, once the command has been issued and a data
transfer has taken place, a transfer acknowledge (XACK) is returned to
the processor to indicate" READY" from the accessed slave device. The
processor then completes its transfer cycle. Thus the arbiter serves
to multiplex a processor (or bus master) onto a multi-master system
bus and avoid contention problems between bus masters.
