As configured, U150 and U155 are the lower bank of the memory and are
controlled by either the /RAS (which also controls the higher bank) or the
/LCAS which is lower bank specific. U150 and U155 output data bits AD0
through AD7. U157 and U160 are the higher bank of memory and it also is
controlled by the /RAS, but relies on the /HCAS to switch to column addresses
and output data bits AD8 through AD15.
