***Notes:...
***info:
The OPTi EISA Pentium chipset consists of two 208-pin QFP devices: the
SYSC, the BUSC and 2 100-pin DBC buffer chips.

The SYSC  write back-memory cache  controller - 82C693 -  controls the
memory  subsystem for EISA  bus controller  accesses between  the CPU,
EISA/ISA masters and DMA devices.  The memory subsystem consists of up
to 8 banks of DRAM with hidden  refresh and from 128K to 1 MB of write
back cache  translates bus control  signals and addresses  between the
CPU, EISA, ISA and DMA masters and slaves.

The BUSC  - 82C696 - integrates  the motherboard I/O  logic defined by
the EISA specification: two  8254 timers, EISA NMI/time-out logic, two
EISA 8259 interrupt controllers, a  32-bit DMA controller and the EISA
system arbiter.

The  Data  Bus Controller  -  82C697  -  integrates data  buffers  and
provides  control for  synchronous data  pipelining. It  also provides
control for bus conversion, Parity generation and checking and an EISA
ID register.  The high  levels of integration and performance provided
by these 4 devices enable OEMs  to plan the evolution of their Pentium
PC/ATs  to  EISA/PCs.   This   chipset  enables  OEMs  to  move  ahead
aggressively  with  high  performance   EISA  platforms  in  order  to
participate successfully in the migration of 32-bit PCs to EISA.
