**M1489/87 FinALi-486 PCI Chipset <Feb95
***Info:
ALi's M1489/M1487 PCI chipset is the most cost effective PCI solution
available. M1489/M1487 enables top-to-bottom PCI in 486 CPU systems,
offering superior price/performance for mainstream PCI-ISA systems.
M1489/M1487 highly integrates the DRAM controller, L2 cache control-
ler, Host, PCI, and ISA interface, as well as the standard ISA
functions: DMA controller, interrupt controller, timer/counter, RTC
(Real Time Clock), and keyboard controller. Additionally, M1489/M1487
incorporates the high performance Local Bus IDE allowing a system de-
signer to implement Local bus IDE with no additional cost. M1489/M1487
is a highly integrated solution requiring minimized TTL components,
enabling PCI-ISA designs at costs equal to or lower than comparable VL
Bus designs.
M1489 (Cache Memory PCI Controller: CMP) integrates the L2 cache con-
troller and the DRAM controller. The cache controller supports
write-back cache policies and cache size from 128K to 1M byte in an
interleaved or non-interleaved configuration. The DRAM controller
interfaces DRAM to the Host bus, PCI bus, and Link bus. M1489 can
support EDO 3/5V DRAM, standard DRAM, and flexible timing
select. M1489 also integrates intelligent Host to PCI, PCI to Host
buffer to achieve high performance. Also, M1489 provides the high
performance Local Bus IDE interface.
M1487 (ISA Bridge Controller: IBC) provides the bridge between the ISA
bus, PCI bus, and Host bus. IBC integrates the common I/O functions
found in today's ISA based systems: a seven channel DMA, two 82C59
interrupt controllers, 8254 timer/ counter, deep green function, and
control logic for NMI generation. IBC also has built-in 128 bytes RTC,
MC14069, KBC, and 7406. IBC also provides the decode for external
BIOS.

**VL82C3216 Bus Expanding Controller Cache with write buffer ?
***Info:
The VL82C3216 Bus Expanding Controller (BANC) Cache with Write Buffer
is specifically designed to provide a high-performance, low-cost
solution for interfacing 386SX PC/AT-compatible chip sets to 386DX,
Am386DXL, AM386DXLV, 486DX, 486SX, or compatible processors. The
designs may be entirely new systems or upgrades to existing
ones. Power management features also make this device ideal for laptop
computers or other battery operated systems. The performance is
achieved through the use of a write buffer structure, an external
second level cache, prediction algorithms, and maximizing the internal
first level cache of the i486, if used.
The high level of integration is entered on the VL82C3216. It
controls all functions between the host processor bus and the 386SX
local bus. in addition the the write buffer and second- and
first-level cache controls, the VL82C3216 contains prediction and
burst mode algorithms that take full advantage of the page mode design
of existing 386SX system architecture. Through the use of pipelined
page mode accesses to system memory, the VL82C3216 bursts data to and
from memory at rates of up to 25 MB per second. This provides 32-bit
memory performance at 16-bit memory costs.
