System and Apparatus for Early Fixed Latency Subtractive Decoding

摘要

Systems and methods for early fixed latency subtractive decoding are disclosed. The subtractive decoding device speculatively acknowledges a bus transaction within a fixed time period that is the same as the time period for positive decoding. Pipelining of a new bus transaction may therefore be accomplished each new time period. A bus transaction may be retried if no acknowledgement occurs within the fixed time period.
