**82370 Integrated System Peripheral (for 82376) c:Oct88
***Notes:...
***Info:
The 82370 is a multi-function support peripheral that integrates
system functions necessary in an 80376 environment. It has eight
channels of high performance 32-bit DMA (32-bit internal, 16-bit
external) with the most efficient transfer rates possible on the 80376
bus. System support peripherals integrated into the 82370 provide
Interrupt Control, Timers, Wait State generation, DRAM Refresh
Control, and System Reset logic.
The 82370's DMA Controller can transfer data between devices of
different data path widths using a single channel. Each DMA channel
operates independently in any of several modes; Each channel has a
temporary data storage register for handling non-aligned data without
the need for external alignment logic.
1.0 FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
The 82370 contains several independent functional modules. The
following is a brief discussion of the components and features of the
82370. Each module has a corresponding detailed section later in this
data sheet. Those sections should be referred to for design and
programming information.
1.1 82370 Architecture
The 82370 is comprised of several computer system functions that are
normally found in separate LSI and VLSI components. These include: a
high-performance, eight-channel, 32-bit Direct Memory Access
Controller; a 20-level Programmable Interrupt Controller which is a
superset of the 82C5SA; four 16-bit Programmable Interval Timers which
are functionally equivalent to the 82C54 timers; DRAM Refresh
Controller; a Programmable Wait State Generator; and system reset
logic. The interface to the 82370 is optimized for high-performance
operation with the 80376 microprocessor.
The 82370 operates directly on the 80376 bus. In the Slave Mode, it
monitors the state of the processor at all times and acts or idles
according to the commands of the host. It monitors the address
pipeline status and generates the programmed number of wait states for
the device being accessed. The 82370 also has logic to the reset of
the 80376 via hardware or software reset requests and processor
shutdown status.
After a system reset, the 82370 is in the Slave Mode. It appears to
the system as an I/O device. It becomes a bus master when it is
performing DMA transfers.
To maintain compatibility with existing software, the registers within
the 82370 are accessed as bytes. If the internal logic of the 82370
requires a delay before another access by the processor, wait states
are automatically inserted into the access cycle. This allows the
programmer to write initialization routines, etc. without regard to
hardware recovery times.

**82C381/382 HiD/386 (386DX) c:89
***Info:
The HiD/386 Chipset, 82C381 and 82C382D, support high integration
implementations of Direct Mapped Cache with 32KB/64KB/128KB Cache for
25 and 33 MHz 386/AT Personal Computers. Combined with the 82C206
Integrated Peripherals Controller, it integrates the 386/AT mother-
board to under 20 devices, plus memory. It is designed to cost reduce
discrete and CHIPS’CS8230 based 82385 Cache 386/AT designs, as well as
boost the performance of these designs to 33 MHz, with >64KB Cache.
The 82681 provides system control logic and data bus conversion logic.
The control logic consists of 386 CPU control logic, AT Bus cycle
control, 387 Numeric Processor control logic, synchronous clock divide
logic and control of the local peripheral bus. The data bus conversion
logic consists of various 8, 16, 32 bit conversions for ROM cycles, AT
bus cycles and memory cycles.
The 820382D performs the Memory Management functions for the HiD/AT
chipset. It is designed to optimize cost of high performance 386/AT
systems with 64KB, l28KB or larger Direct Mapped Cache Memory. It also
implements logic to maintain compatibility in the AT environment . It
provides a Page Interleave backend for main DRAM memory, in order to
improve performance during miss cycles. It also has features for
reducing system cost.
It minimizes Cache Memory cost by allowing the use of slow SRAM; by
supporting single EPROM BIOS configurations; putting DRAM on the local
bus and consequently reducing DRAM speeds by 15ns typically; and by
remapping 256K of DRAM between 640K and 1024K to top of main memory.
It provides a very flexible implementation of paging for the main DRAM
memory. For even bank configurations, it provides 2-way or 4-way
interleaving; for odd banks it provides paging. This provides a
flexible approach to increasing the size of the local memory as
software demands increase, without imposing a penalty on performance.
Finally, memory performance is optimized by shadow RAM techniques for
BIOS ROMs; concatenated pages for multiple hank configurations; paging
for odd banks; and variable page size for larger DRAMs.
System Architecture
The HiD/AT chipset is compatible with the 82C206 Integrated
Peripherals Controller. Consequently, with the 82C206, a very high
integration and very high performance 386/AT can be implemented. A
typical motherboard can be designed with less than 20 devices plus
memory.
For larger AT designs, targeted at file-servers and departmental
computers, designs with 8 or more slots can be supported with external
AT bus drivers.
