Hi Mark
My manual describes the CPU Pipeline Function thusly:
"This allows the system controller to signal the CPU for a new memory
address, even before all data transfers for the current cycle are
complete, resulting in increased throughput. Enabled means that address
pipelining is active. The default is disabled."
Okay. You interpret from there.
