**82380 32-bit DMA Controller w/ Integrated Peripherals 02/01/87
***Notes:...
***Info:
The 82380 is a multi-function support peripheral that integrates
system functions necessary in an 80386 environment. It has eight
channels of high performance 32-bit DMA with the most efficient
transfer rates possible on the 80386 bus. System support peripherals
integrated into the 82380 provide Interrupt Control, Timers, Wait
State generation, DRAM Refresh Control, and System Reset logic.
The 82380'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
temp orary data storage register for handling non-aligned data without
the need for external alignment logic.
The 82380 contains several independent functional modules. The foll-
owing is a brief discussion of the components and features of the
82380. E$ch module has a corresponding detailed section later in this
data sheet. Those sections should be referred to for design and
programming information.
82380 Architecture:
The 82380 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 Cont-
roller; a 20-level Programmable Interrupt Controller which is a super-
set of the 82C59A; four 16-bit Programmable Interval Timers which are
functionally equivalent to the 82C54 timers; a DRAM Refresh Cont-
roller; a Programmable Wait State Generator; and system reset
logic. The interface to the 82380 is optimized for high-performance
operation with the 80386 microprocessor.
The 82380 operates directly on the 80386 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 82380 also has logic to reset the
80386 via hardware or software reset requests and processor shutdown
status.
After a system reset, the 82380 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 82380 are accessed as bytes. If the internal logic of the 82380
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.

**UM82C230 286AT MORTAR Chip Set <91
***Info:
The UMC's MORTAR (286AT) Chip Set UM82C230 series provides an economic
alternative for building a reliable IBM PC/AT compatible system. A
commercial 12MHZ/0 wait state, 4MByte main memory system and
math-coprocessor can be easily built by using 3 VLSIs, 8 logic
components plus memory and processor.
The UM82C230 MORTAR chipset consists of the UM82C231 System/Memory
Controller, the UM82C232 Data/Address Buffer and the UM82C206
Integrated Peripherals Controller (IPC).
As shown in the System Block Diagram, [see datasheet] there are three
data buses: local data bus, AT data bus and peripheral data (XD) bus.
The local DRAM, EPROM and Numerical Processor are located on the local
data bus. The UM82C206 and 8042 Keyboard Controller sit on the XD bus.
The AT data bus was driven by the UM82C232 directly which conveys the
data to/from the AT Channel Adaptors.
The address bus architecture is also very simple; local CPU address
bus, local DRAM address bus (MA), peripheral address bus (XA) and AT
address bus. The local address bus is shared between CPU, UM82C231 and
UM82C206. The MA bus is used by the local DRAM only. Most of the
system board devices are attached to the XA bus, like UM82C232,
UM82C206, ROMs and 8042. Some AT address lines are driven by the
UM82C231 or UM82C232 directly; the others are buffered.
The UM82C231 provides synchronization and control signals for all
buses. The UM82C231 also distinguishes if the current cycle is local
memory cycle. Upon detecting that it is a local DRAM cycle, no AT
control signals are sent out to the AT channel. The UM82C231 is based
on the memory configurations to complete the current cycle with
fastest response. If the cycle is AT cycle, the UM82C231 sends out the
control signals sequentially which are then used by the adaptors or
system board devices to receive the write data or to send the fetched
data. Then, depending on the status signals sent back by the adaptors
or system board devices, the UM82C231 determines which kind of AT
cycles to perform: 8-bit, 16-bit, bus conversion, wait state insert,
or wait state cycle.
The UM82C232 Data/Address buffer provides the buffering and latching
between the CPU local data bus, AT bus and XD bus. The parity bit
generation and parity bit checking logic resides in the UM82C232 also.
During DMA cycles, the UM82C232 latches the address from XD, which is
sent by the UM82C206, and transfers to XA bus.
