 | | As the term "parallel bus" suggests, the data are not tranferred serial, bit by bit, but parallel, which means 8 bits at a time. |
 | | This is not even done at the pace of 19,200 baud, as the serial bus does, but at the maximum pace of the 6502 CPU. |
 | | Every time data are transferred over the data bus, the CPU signals with these wires which storage location is meant to transmit or receive data. |
