High speed memory access system for a microcontroller with directly driven low order address bits

摘要

A microcontroller which directly drives a memory with low order address bits during a fetch operation. Driving the low order address bits directly while the high order bits are latched during an address/data multiplex on the same pins allows the latch enable cycle to be skipped during sequential fetches. A sequential address detector indicates when the latch enable cycle can be skipped.
