Bus Operation
7-93 MC68030 USER’S MANUAL MOTOROLA
7.5.3 Halt Operation
When HALT is asserted and BERR is not asserted, the MC68030 halts external bus activity
at the next bus cycle boundary. HALT
by itself does not terminate a bus cycle. Negating and
reasserting HALT
in accordance with the correct timing requirements provides a single-step
(bus cycle to bus cycle) operation. The HALT
signal affects external bus cycles only; thus,
a program that resides in the instruction cache and performs no data writes (or reads that
miss in the data cache) may continue executing, unaffected by the HALT
signal.
