VME64, an expanded version of VMEbus, provides 64-bit data transfer and addressing. The regular VMEbus standard accommodates 32-bit address and data buses. Data transfers are 32, 16 and 8 bytes wide. The VME64 standard utilises this unused bandwidth to enable 64-bit block transfers. The lower 32 bits are placed on the regular D0 to D31 and the upper 32 bits placed on the idle address bus A01 to A31.
