- The transputer uses word addressing, so the above four write strobes
- are provided; one to write each byte of the word. notMemWrB0 addresses the
- least significant byte (notMemWrB3 the most significant). So the sb
- (store byte) instruction will cause the strobe notWrB<n> to be asserted,
- where <n> is the address of the byte within its word (little endian).
