8.3.2.4 Effect of Alignment in Data Transfers
lists the aligned transfers that can occur on the 750GX bus. These are transfers in which the data 
is aligned to an address that is an integral multiple of the size of the data. For example, Table 8-4 shows that 
1-byte data is always aligned. However, for a 4-byte word to be aligned, it must be oriented on an address 
that is a multiple of four.

“U” and “L” represent the upper and lower word of the double word respectively.

Note:  The entries with an “x” indicate the byte portions of the requested operand that are read or written during a bus transaction.
The entries with a “–” are not required and are ignored during read transactions, and they are driven with undefined data during all write 
transactions.
