Part III. The Hardware Interface
NegatedÑ(During assertion of DBB) indicates that, until TA is 
asserted, the MPC8260 must continue to drive the data for the 
current write or must wait to sample the data for reads.
Timing Comments
AssertionÑMust not occur before AACK for the current transaction 
(if the address retry mechanism is to be used to prevent invalid data 
from being used by the MPC8260); otherwise, assertion may occur 
at any time during the assertion of DBB. The system can withhold 
assertion of TA to indicate that the MPC8260 should insert wait 
states to extend the duration of the data beat. 
NegationÑMust occur after the bus clock cycle of the Þnal (or only) 
data beat of the transfer. For a burst transfer, the system can assert TA 
for one bus clock cycle and then negate it to advance the burst 
transfer to the next beat and insert wait states during the next beat. 
(Note: when conÞgured for 1:1 clock mode and is performing a burst 
read into the data cache, the MPC8260 requires two wait states 
between the assertion of TS and the Þrst assertion of TA for that 
transaction, or one wait state for 1.5:1 clock mode.)
7.2.8.1.2  Transfer Acknowledge (TA)ÑOutput
Following are the state meaning and timing comments for TA as an output signal.
State Meaning
AssertedÑIndicates that the data has been latched for a write 
operation, or that the data is valid for a read operation, thus 
terminating the current data beat. If it is the last or only data beat, this 
also terminates the data tenure. 
NegatedÑIndicates that master must extend the current data beat 
(insert wait states) until data can be provided or accepted by the 
MPC8260. 
Timing Comments
AssertionÑOccurs on the clock in which the current data transfer 
can be completed. 
NegationÑOccurs after the clock cycle of the Þnal (or only) data 
beat of the transfer. For a burst transfer, TA may be negated between 
beats to insert one or more wait states before the completion of the 
next beat.
7.2.8.2  Transfer Error Acknowledge (TEA)
The transfer error acknowledge (TEA) signal is both input and output on the MPC8260,
This signal can be ignored if BCR[TEA_EN] is cleared. 
7.2.8.2.1  Transfer Error Acknowledge (TEA)ÑInput
Following are the state meaning and timing comments for the TEA input signal.
State Meaning
AssertedÑIndicates that a bus error occurred. The assertion of TEA 
causes the negation/high impedance of DBB in the next clock cycle. 
However, data entering the MPC8260 internal memory resources 
such as GPRs or caches are not invalidated.
