**82C601/A Single Chip Peripheral Controller <08/30/90
***Notes:...
***Info:
The 82C601 single chip peripheral controllers is the second generation
of our Multifunction Controller product line.
This chip is an LSI implementation of the most commonly used
peripheral devices found in an IBM PC, XT or AT. The chip features 16
mA drivers for the output buffers, such as the host data bus and
parallel port data bus. It incorporates two 16450 compatible UARTs,
one enhanced parallel port (with bi-directional capability), and IDE
compatible hard disk interface and various chip selects (in the
MOTHERBOARD Application) or select pins and Game port decodes (in the
ADAPTER Application). Decoding logic and support for main, auxiliary
and standby power supplies and software configurable base addresses
for these devices, operational modes and interrupts are also
included. This chip supports 2 applications:
MOTHERBOARD Application where all the ports are relocatable. An
Integrated Drive electronics Interface, and various Chip Selects
(Floppy Disk, Real Time Clock and a General Purpose) have been added
for this mode. Power management aspects of the 82C601 in the
MOTHERBOARD Application include modular power down through PWRGD
pin. When the chip is powered down (i.e. when PWRGD is inactive) the
current draw should be less than 50 micro-Amps, all the inputs are
disabled, and all outputs are tri-stated. the contents of all the
registers are preserved, as long as power supply to the 82C601 is
maintained.
ADAPTER Application where the base address for the ports are
determined by the select pins (PSPz, SSPs, ASPs, and PPS); except for
game port, it is fixed @ 200H- 207H. -GAMERD and -GAMEWR outputs are
provided to minimize external gate count.
The host interface is PC compatible, i.e. DO-D7, A0-A9, -IOR, -IOW,
AEN, INTR1, INTR2, INTR3, INTR4, and RESET, and can be connected
directly to the bus. The data buffers (DO-D7, PD0-PD7, IDED7) are
capable of sinking 16 mA @ 0.5v, the parallel port control signals are
open collector with internal pull up resistors; and are capable of
sinking 16 mA @ 0.5V.
The UARTs implement fully functional serial links. Programmable
character length, parity generation and detection, stop-bit generation
and baud rate generation are provided. Double buffering is used so
that precise synchronization is unnecessary. Status information is
accessible to the CPU by reading internal registers. MODEM control
lines are provided, as are internal diagnostic functionality and
interrupt prioritization. Support for an auxiliary power system (such
as that derived from a telephone line or RS232 link) permits an 82C601
in a battery-powered device to consume no battery power until an
incoming character is detected.
The parallel port can be configured for output only (printer
application) or input and output (bi-direction}.
The configuration RAM and circuitry support programmable base
addresses for all registers internal to the chip. This permits
creation of a menu-driven program for system configuration. Selection
of sources for interrupts; enabling and configuring of on-chip
subsystems (UARTS. parallel port. etc.) and control of the
configuration process itself are also handled with this RAM and its
associated circuitry. The remainder of this data sheet will consider
each of the aforesaid subsystems individually. Sections containing
more general design data for the chip as a whole are at the end along
with electrical and physical characteristics.
