**82340DX     Chip Set (VLSI) (82346/82345/82355)             01/08/90
***Notes:...
***Info:
****82346 System Controller:...
****82345 Data Buffer:
The 82345 Data Buffer is part of a custom, three chip set which allows
extremely high performance  and integration in 386  DX processor based
PC/AT-compatible, personal computer designs.  When used with the 82346
System Controller and the 82344 ISA  Bus Controller, the set is called
the 82340DX chip set.

The 82345 performs all the data buffering functions required for a 386
DX-based PC/AR-type  system. Under  the control of  the CPU,  the data
buffer chip routes  data to and from  the CPU bus, the MD  bus, the XD
bus, and the  slots (SD bus).  For an on-board DRAM  read, the data is
latched in  the MD  latch allowing the  82346 System Controller  to be
programmed for  early CAS terminations.  The parity is checked  for MD
bus read operations  and any errors are reported  during the next read
cycle. When reading from  ROM, the XD bus or the SD  bus, the data can
be converted from  8-bits wide to 16-, 24- or 32-bits  wide or from 16
bits to  32 bits at the 16/32  latch. the data is  latched with LATLO#
and LATHI#  for synchronization with  the CPU. The data  conversion is
accomplished without the  use of the bus size 16  (BS16#) input to the
386DX allowing it to remain in pipelined mode.

CPU  writes to  any of  the three  buses are  accomplished  in several
different  ways.  The  82345  supports  posted  writes  from  a  cache
controller or non-posted writes to the MD bus. Parity is generated for
all  data  written  to  the  MD  bus.  The  82345  provides  the  data
conversion necessary for 32- or  16-bit writes to 16- or 8-bit devices
on the XD or SD bus.

In non-cached systems,  system board DRAM can be  placed on either the
MD bus or  the CPU's D bus. In  slower systems ( \< 16  MHz) true zero
wait state operation is possible with available 60 ns DRAMs when the D
bus is used. This is due to the extra timing margin available when the
MD  bus delay through  the 82345  is removed  from the  critical path.
Faster  non-cached   systems  can  come  close  to   zero  wait  state
performance  using  80  ns  to  100  ns DRAMs  and  page  mode  inter-
leaving. This requires an even number of DRAM banks.

Under the control of  DMA or a bus master, the 82345  will allow 8- or
16-bit data to be routed to and from the XD and the MD buses. The chip
also is capable  of performing high to low and low  to high byte swaps
on the SD bus.  For transfers between two peripherals on the slot bus,
the outputs of the 82345 will  be disabled. The chip also provides the
feature of  a single input,  TRI#, to disable  all of its  outputs for
board level testability.
