**HT18          80386SX Single Chip                            c:Sep91
***Info:
The HT18  is an advanced PC/AT compatible,  single-chip 80386SX design
solution. This  highly integrated single chip allows  simple, low cost
system  design options  while  featuring high  performance, low  power
consumption,  and minimum board  space requirements.   Advanced memory
management features  include support  for page mode,  with 2  or 4-way
interleaving  in both pipelined  and non-pipelined  modes(18A/B only).
Extended Hardware EMS  options include dual sets of  32 registers with
multiple context operation. Revisions A/B support 256K and 1M DRAMs in
1 by 1,  1 by 4, and 1  by 9 device configurations. Rev  C supports 4M
devices, as well.  A Shadow RAM  option for System Video BIOS and dual
or single system ROM BIOS support adds to overall design versatility.

A  complete PC/AT  compatible  system with  advanced  features may  be
implemented with minimal external support logic. The HT18 performs all
CPU  and peripheral support  functions in  a single  chip.  Integrated
device  functions include  DMA Controllers,  a Memory  Mapper, Timers,
Counters, Interrupt  Controllers, a Bus Controller  and all supporting
circuitry for PC core logic requirements. An asynchronous AT Bus clock
allows  for a  constant 8MHz  Bus clock  rate for  highest  bus device
compatibility as defined in IEEE Spec P996. This device is packaged in
a 208-pin  Plastic Quad Flat  Pack combining several  external buffers
into this space saving solution.

**VL82C386-SET     TOPCAT 386DX PC/AT-Compatible Chip Set            ?
***Info:
The TOPCAT 386DX  chip set from VLSI Technology, Inc.,  is a very high
integration chip set  for use in the design  of PC/AT-compatible based
systems.    This   chip  set   is   intended   for  use   in   80386DX
microprocessor-based systems with clock speeds form 16 to 33 MHz.

The  TOPCAT 386DX  chip  set  provides design  engineers  with a  very
flexible, high-  performance, low-cost  board design solution  for IBM
PC/AT-compatible desktop, laptop, portable, and hand-held computers.

The  TOPCAT 386DX  three-device chip  set has  been designed  with the
highest  integration  consistent  with economic  and  reliable  system
design. It provides  a complete board design using  only 10 non-memory
devices including the microprocessor.

VLSI's The TOPCAT 386DX chip set was designed with seven goals.
o   lowest system board cost
o   Smallest board area requirement
o   highest performance in both cached and non-cached systems
o   single board design for:
    - 16 to 33 MHz operation
    - Cache or non-cache
    - 1M byte to 64M byte memory using 256K, 1M, and 4M bit DRAM
    - Laptop or desktop applications
o   Full hardware LIM EMS 4.0 support for the highest possible 
    performance
o   Built-in, in-circuit test modes for easy board level testing.
o   the VL82C330A interfaces to the VL82C335 "look-aside" Cache 
    Controller

with  VLSI's TOPCAT  386DX  chip set,  you  can be  assured that  your
high-performance system design needs are met.
