**82430MX PCIset (Pentium) MX (Mobile Triton)(82437/438MX)11/01/95
***Notes:...
***Info:
The Intel 430MX PCIset consists of the 82437MX System Controller
(MTSC). two 82438MX Data Paths (MTDP), and the 82371MX PCI I/O IDE
Xcelerator (MPIIX). The PCIset forms a Host-to-PCI bridge and provides
the second level cache control and a full function 64-bit data path to
main memory. The MTSC integrates the cache and main memory DRAM
control functions and provides bus control for transfers between the
CPU, cache, main memory, and the PCI Bus. The second level (L2) cache
controller supports a write-back cache policy for cache sizes of 256
Kbytes and 512 Kbytes. Cacheless designs are also supported. The cache
memory can be implemented with either standard, burst, or pipelined
burst SRAMs. An external Tag RAM is used for the address tag and an
internal Tag RAM for the cache line status bits. For the MTSC DRAM
controller, four rows are supported for up to 128 Mbytes of main
memory. The MTSC optimized PCI interface allows the CPU to sustain the
highest possible bandwidth to the graphics frame buffer at all
frequencies. Using the snoop ahead feature, the MTSC allows PCI
masters to achieve full PCI bandwidth. The MTDPs provide the data
paths between the CPU/cache, main memory, and PCI. For increased
system performance. the MTDPs contain read prefetch and posted write
buffers.
