**VL82C380         Single chip 386DX PC/AT Controller +on-chip cache ?
***Info:...
***Configuration:...
***Features:
o   Highly integrated system solution using VL82C380 single-chip 
    ISA controller, VL82C113A Combination I/O chip and 3 TTLs
o   Supports one- or two-bank write-back cache
    - External TAGs
    - 32 Kbyte to 1 Mbyte cache size
    - 0 or 1 wait state writes
    - Separate dirty RAM not required; first write to clean, valid 
      line sets dirty bit 
o   Caches main system DRAM only
o   Maintains full coherency during DMA/MASTER mode cycles
o   Optional remap of video and hard disk ROM BIOS onto motherboard, 
    allowing use of single BIOS ROM
o   Optional bus acceleration for video accesses, with programmable 
    address regions
o   Software-configurable
o   Utilizes proven 8254, 8237, 8259 megacalls used in all previous
    VLSI Technology PC/AT chipsets
o   High-performance memory controller:
    - One wait state red up to 33 MHz, Zero wait state reads up to 
      40 MHz
    - Automatic configuring of Bank start address
    - Each bank individually configurable for any supported DRAM type
    - shadow RAM support form 640K to 1M in 16K segments
    - Staggered refresh reduces power supply peak currents
    - Decoupled-mode refresh improves performance
    - Programmable refresh frequency for support of slow-refresh DRAMs
    - Up to 64 Mbytes of motherboard memory in one to four banks using
      256K, 1M, and/or 4Mbit DRAM, all motherboard memory is cacheable
    - Direct-drive up to 2 banks (32 Mbyte) of motherboard memory
    - Two-way page mode interleave
    - Supports 32-bit ini-interleaved or interleaved configurations
    - Programmable RAS/CAS timing supported for Cycle-start, Trp, 
      Trcd, and Tacs
