**82495XP/490XP Cache Controller / Cache RAM (for i860)       06/05/91
***Notes:...
***Info:
The Intel 82495XP cache controller and 82490XP cache RAM, when coupled
with a user-implemented memory  bus controller, provide a second-level
cache  subsystem  that eliminates  the  memory  latency and  bandwidth
bottleneck for  a wide  range of multiprocessor  systems based  on the
i860 XP  microprocessor. The CPU  interface is optimized to  serve the
i860  XP microprocessor  with zero  wait  states at  up to  50 MHz.  A
secondary cache  built from the  82495XP and 82490XP isolates  the CPU
from  the memory subsystem;  the memory  can run  slower and  follow a
different protocol than the i860 XP microprocessor.

**VT82C505     Pentium/486 VL to PCI Bridge                  <05/30/94
***Info:
The  VT82C505 is  a VL  to  PCI bus  bridge that  extends a  currently
matured and  cost-effective VL/ISA chip  set to a  complete PCI/VL/ISA
system. In particular, the VT82C505  can be combined with the VT82C486
or VT82C496G for a two chip  Green PC ready PCI/VL/ISA system based on
80486SX/DX/DX2/DX4   or   compatible   processors  (Figure   1)   [see
datasheet].   Similarly,  the  VT82C505   can  be  combined  with  the
VT82C530MV chip set  (VT82C535MV and VT82C531MV) for a  Green PC ready
PCI/VL/ISA system  based on the  Pentium/P54C/M1 superscalar processor
(Figure  2)[see  datasheet].  In  all  cases,  the  system  management
interface, power  management unit, keyboard controller  with PS2 mouse
interface, clock stop mechanism and write-back level-one cache support
are fully integrated into the chip set.
