**82360SL     I/O Subsystem                                   10/05/90
***Notes:...
***Info:
The  82360SL Peripheral  I/O  contains dedicated  logic  to perform  a
number of  CPU, memory, and peripheral support  functions. The 82360SL
device also contains an extensive set of programmable power management
facilities  which  allow  minimized  system  energy  requirements  for
battery-powered portable computers.

The  82360SL includes  a  complete set  of  on-chip peripheral  device
functions  including  two 16450  compatible  serial  ports, one  8-bit
Centronics interface  or bi-directional parallel port,  two 8254 comp-
atible timer counters, two  8259 compatible interrupt controllers, two
8237  compatible  DMA controllers,  one  74LS612  compatible DMA  page
register,  one  146818  compatible  Real-time clock/calendar  with  an
additional  128 bytes  of battery  backed CMOS  RAM and  an integrated
drive electronics (IDE) hard  disk drive interface.  The Intel 82360SL
also contains highly programmable chip selects and complete peripheral
interface  logic  for  direct  keyboard  and  floppy  disk  controller
support. The peripheral registers  and functions behave exactly as the
discrete  components  commonly  found  in industry  standard  personal
computers. The  peripheral logic is  enhanced for static  operation by
supporting write only registers as read/write.

The processor  and memory support  functions contained in  the 82360SL
device eliminate  most of the external random-logic  "glue" that might
otherwise   be  required.   The  82360SL   device   provides  internal
programmable-frequency clock generators for the ISA bus backplane, and
video subsystems. A programmable, low-power DRAM refresh timer is also
provided to  maintain system memory integrity during  the power saving
suspend state.

The  82360SL also  contains a  flexible set  of hardware  functions to
support  the  growing   sophistication  in  power  management  schemes
required by portable systems. Numerous hardware timers, event monitors
and  I/O  interfaces  can  programmable  monitor  and  control  system
activity.  Firmware developed  by  the system  designer allocates  and
directs the hardware to fulfill the unique power management needs of a
given system configuration.

All of the standard  peripheral registers, clock-generation logic, and
power-management  facilities  have been  designed  to ensure  complete
compatibility  with   existing  operating  systems   and  applications
software.
