Question:
Consider a synchronous bus that operates according to the timing diagram in Fig- ure 4.24. The address transmitted by the processor appears on the bus after 4 ns. The propagation delay on the bus wires between the processor and different devices con- nected varies from 1 to 5 ns, address decoding takes 6 ns, and the addressed device takes between 5 and 10 ns to place the requested data on the bus. The input buffer needs 3 ns of setup time. What is the maximum clock speed at which this bus can operate?
