Each byte is signalled in four steps: sender writes the 4 most significant bits and raises the handshake line; receiver reads the 4 bits and raises its handshake to acknowledge; sender places the 4 least significant bits on the data lines and lowers the handshake; receiver reads the data and lowers its handshake.
Busy-waiting loops are used while handshaking bytes, (and worse still when waiting for the receiving system to respond to an interrupt for the start of a packet).
This is unavoidable in the case of CLPIP mode due to the choice of handshake lines; it could theoretically be improved in the case of LPIP mode.
