**82496/491     Cache Controller / Cache RAM (for P5 Pentium) 03/22/93
***Notes:...
***Info:
The 82496 Cache Controller and multiple 82491 Cache SRAMs combine with
the Pentium processor  to form a CPU Cache chip  set designed for high
performance  servers  and   function-rich  desktops.  The  high  speed
interconnect between  the CPU and cache components  has been optimized
to  provide zero-wait  state operation.   This CPU  Cache chip  set is
fully compatible  with existing software,  and has new  data integrity
features for mission critical applications.

The 82496 cache controller implements the MESI write-back protocol for
full multiprocessing support. Dual  ported buffers and registers allow
the 82496  to concurrently  handle CPU bus,  memory bus,  and internal
cache operation for maximum performance.

The 82491. is a customized high-performance SRAM that supports 32, 64,
and 128-bit  wide memory bus widths,  16, 32, and 64  byte line sizes,
and optional sectoring.  The data path between the  CPU bus and memory
bus  is separated  by the  82491, allowing  the CPU  bus  to handshake
synchronously,  asynchronously,  or   with  a  strobed  protocol,  and
allowing concurrent CPU bus and memory bus operations.

**UM82C852     Multi I/O For XT                                    <91
***Info:
The  Multi-I/O  chip, UM82C852  is  an  integrated  chip of  UM82C450,
UM82C11, UM82C8167. This  chip is a Multi-I/O for  PC/XT and PS2 model
30.

The   82C450  asynchronous   communications  element   (ACE)  performs
serial-to-parallel  conversion   on  data  characters   received  from
peripheral  devices or  modems, and  parallel-to-serial  conversion of
data characters transmitted by the CPU. The complete status of the ACE
can  be read  at  any time  during  functional operation  by CPU.  The
information obtained  includes the type and condition  of the transfer
operations being performed and error conditions.

The  82C11  parallel  port  provides  the user  with  a  bidirectional
parallel data  port that fully  supports the parallel  Centronics type
printer.

The 82C8167 real time clock includes an addressable real time counter,
56 bits  of static RAM with  an on chip oscillation  circuit which can
generate the 32,768 Hz time base.

The 82C852 is packaged in a 68-pin plastic leaded chip carrier.
