In ARM bus arbitration, which signal is typically asserted by a device to indicate it wants to use the bus?
AData Ready (DRDY)
BBus Grant (BGNT)
CClock Enable (CLKEN)
DBus Request (BREQ)
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify bus arbitration signals

    Devices use specific signals to communicate bus access requests.
  2. Step 2: Determine the request signal

    The Bus Request (BREQ) signal is asserted by a device to request bus control.
  3. Final Answer:

    Bus Request (BREQ) -> Option D
  4. Quick Check:

    Request signals initiate access, grants confirm it. [OK]
Quick Trick: Devices assert BREQ to request bus access [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Confusing Bus Grant with Bus Request
  • Selecting unrelated signals like Clock Enable
  • Assuming Data Ready signals bus request
