**VL82C***              IBM/INTEL Direct replacement                 ?
PC/XT:
IBM:	      VLSI:	 Desc:
Intel 8284    VL82C84A	 8-10MHz 8086 and 8088 Clock Generator and Driver  
Intel 8288    VL82C88	 8-10MHz 8086 and 8088 Bus Controller
Intel 8259    VL82C59A	 8-10MHz CMOS Programmable Interrupt Controller
Intel 8237    VL82C37A	 5-8MHz	CMOS Direct Memory Access (DMA) Controller
Intel 8253    VL82C54A*	 8-10MHz CMOS Programmable Interval Timer 
Intel 8255    ??	 (Keyboard Controller)

Note: * indicates: The VL82C54A datasheet says it works with the 8086/
        8088, not sure if that means, the CPU or as IBM PC/XT compat-
        ible. YMMV.
