C) semi- synchronous
D) synchronous

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Asynchronous buses do not rely on a shared clock signal for timing, allowing devices to operate at their own pace and insert wait states as needed unless a specific signal indicates to terminate the bus cycle. Synchronous buses, in contrast, operate in lockstep with a shared clock signal, making them less flexible in terms of wait state insertion.
