**540            (Spartan) Super7 2D/3D Ultra-AGP Single C.S.<11/30/99
***Info:
The  single  chipset, SiS540,  provides  a  high performance/low  cost
Desktop solution  for the Super Socket  7 series CPUs  based system by
integrating a  high performance North Bridge,  advanced hardware 2D/3D
GUI  engine  and  Super-South  bridge. In  addition,  SiS540  provides
system-on-chip solution  that complies  with Easy PC  Initiative which
supports Instantly Available/OnNow  PC technology, USB, Legacy Removal
and Slotless Design and FlexATX form factor.

By integrating  the Ultra-AGP technology and  advanced 128-bit graphic
display interface, SiS540  delivers high performance and up  to 2 GB/s
memory  bandwidth. Furthermore, SiS540  provides powerful  slice layer
decoding DVD  accelerator to improve the DVD  playback performance. In
addition to providing the  standard interface for CRT monitors, SiS540
also  provides  the Digital  Flat  Panel  Port  (DFP) for  a  standard
interface  between  a  personal  computer  and a  digital  flat  panel
monitor.  To  extend functionality and flexibility,  SiS also provides
the  "Video Bridge"  (SiS301) to  support the  NTSC/PAL  Video Output,
Digital  LCD Monitor  and  Secondary CRT  Monitor,  which reduces  the
external Panel  Link transmitter and TV-Out encoder  for cost effected
solution. SiS540  also adopts  Share System Memory  Architecture which
can flexibly utilize the frame buffer size up to 64MB.

The  "Super-South Bridge"  in  SiS540 integrates  all peripheral  con-
trollers/accelerators/interfaces.   SiS540  provides  a total  commun-
ication   solution  including  10/100Mb   Fast  Ethernet   for  Office
requirement.  SiS540 offers AC’97  compliant interface  that comprises
digital audio engine with 3D-hardware accelerator, on-chip sample rate
converter, and  professional wavetable  along with separate  modem DMA
controller.   SiS540 also provides  interface to  Low Pin  Count (LPC)
operating at 33 MHz clock which is  the same as PCI clock on the host,
and dual USB  host controller with four USB  ports that deliver better
connectivity and 2 x 12Mb bandwidth.

The built-in fast PCI IDE controller supports the ATA PIO/DMA, and the
Ultra DMA33/66 function that supports  the data transfer rate up to 66
MB/s. It provides  a separate data path for two  IDE channels that can
eminently improve the performance under the multi-tasking environment.

**SL9252   80386SX System and Memory Controller              <06/12/90
***Info:
VIA’s  System and  Memory Controller  SL9252,  has the  logic for  the
System Control, Memory Control, Data  Control and chip select for some
of  the  peripherals  used  in  an  AT system.  The  device  is  fully
configurable via software. No  external hardware jumpers are needed to
utilize its features.  Default values are provided to  boot any system
configuration. On reset, BIOS routines are used to program the device,
transparent to the user, to utilize its special features.

Four configuration  registers in the System Control  Logic control the
AT bus and peripheral bus Operations. Synchronous and asynchronous bus
operations are  supported. In synchronous  mode, bus clock  is derived
from the processor's CLK2. In asynchronous mode, it is derived from an
independent external bus clock pin.

Support for page mode  and non-page mode operation with non-interleave
or  word  /  multi-page  interleave, along  with  programmable  memory
timing, allow the  system designer to get maximum  performance for the
chosen DRAMs. High drive for RAS, CAS, memory address, and write lines
are provided to  connect SL9252 directly to a  large DRAM memory array
without  external buffering.  In addition,  CAS for  all the  banks in
non-interleave and  2-way interleave  are provided to  reduce external
gates.

Shadowing  features are  supported  in 16K  granularity  from 640K  to
1M. Remap  options allow shadowing of eight  different combinations of
top of memory, Local ROM, and Video ROM to 64oK to 1M region.

VIA's System  and Memory  Controller, SL9252, can  be used  with VIA's
SL9020  Data Controller, or  with discrete  latches and  buffers. Data
direction and enable signals for  the data controller are provided for
both modes of operation.

SL9252  provides  decoding  for  the  Real  Time  Clock  and  Keyboard
Controller, thus avoiding external decoding gates. In addition, Port B
logic, PS/2 Compatible Port 92 for fast reset, and A20GATE provide the
necessary logic support for a one-chip solution.
