7.2.5.2  Address Retry (ARTRY)
The address retry (ARTRY) signal is both an input and output signal on the MPC8260
7.2.5.2.1  Address Retry (ARTRY)ÑOutput
.Following are the state meaning and timing comments for ARTRY as an output signal.
State Meaning
AssertedÑIndicates that the MPC8260 detects a condition in which 
an address tenure must be retried. If the MPC8260 processor needs 
to update memory as a result of snoop that caused the retry, the 
MPC8260 asserts BR the second cycle after AACK if ARTRY is 
asserted.
High ImpedanceÑIndicates that the MPC8260 does not need the 
address tenure to be retried. 
Timing Comments
AssertionÑAsserted the third bus cycle following the assertion of 
TS if a retry is required.
NegationÑOccurs the second bus cycle after the assertion of AACK. 
Since this signal may be simultaneously driven by multiple devices, 
it negates in a unique fashion. First the buffer goes to high impedance 
for a minimum of one-half processor cycle (dependent on the clock 
mode), then it is driven negated for one bus cycle before returning to 
high impedance. 
7.2.5.2.2  Address Retry (ARTRY)ÑInput
Following are the state meaning and timing comments for the ARTRY input.
State Meaning
AssertedÑIf the MPC8260 is the address bus master, ARTRY 
indicates that the MPC8260 must retry the preceding address tenure 
and immediately negate BR (if asserted). If the associated data 
tenure has started, the MPC8260 also aborts the data tenure 
immediately even if the burst data has been received. If the 
MPC8260 is not the address bus master, this input indicates that the 
MPC8260 should negate BR for one bus clock cycle immediately 
after external device asserts ARTRY to permit a copy-back operation 
to main memory. Note that the subsequent address presented on the 
address bus may not be the one that generated the assertion of 
ARTRY.
Negated/High ImpedanceÑIndicates that the MPC8260 does not 
need to retry the last address tenure. 
Timing Comments
AssertionÑMay occur as early as the second cycle following the 
assertion of TS and must occur by the bus clock cycle immediately 
following the assertion of AACK if an address retry is required. 
NegationÑMust occur during the second cycle after the assertion of 
AACK.
