ABSTRACT:
An edge detecting circuit detects an input level change (edge) of a synchronous signal provided from a synchronous signal input terminal. A data latch unit latches digital data provided from an external data input terminal. An address generating circuit provides an address signal. A write control unit activates/deactivates a write enable signal for writing to a RAM. An arbitration circuit monitors a write control enable signal, a read enable signal and a write enable signal, and detects a cycle, in which a CPU does not access the RAM.
