**HT21 386SX/286 Single Chip (20 MHz) c:Aug91
***Info:
The HT21 is an advanced PC/AT compatible, single-chip 80386SX/80286
design solution. This highly integrated single chip allows simple,
low cost system design options while featuring high performance, low
power consumption, and minimum board space requirements. Advanced
memory management features include support for page mode, 2 or 4-way
interleaving in both pipelined and non-pipelined modes. The LIM 4.0
hardware implementation features dual sets of 32 registers with full
context support for highest performance Optimization of extended local
memory accesses. An advanced EMS hardware write-protect option is
provided. The HT21 supports 256K and 1M DRAMs in l by 1, 1 by 4, and 1
by 9 device configurations for up to 8MB of on-board system memory. A
flexible Shadow RAM option for System and Video BIOS as well as 8-
16-bit BIOS Options adds to overall design versatility.
A complete PC/AT compatible system with advanced features may be
implemented with minimal external support logic. The HT21 performs all
CPU and peripheral support functions in a single chip. Integrated
device functions include DMA Controllers, a Memory Mapper, Timers,
Counters, Interrupt Controllers, a Bus Controller and all supporting
circuitry for PC core logic requirements. The chip also contains all
the necessary address buffers, data transceivers, memory drivers,
parity checking and supporting circuitry for a complete high
performance computer solution. An asynchronous AT Bus clock allows for
a constant 8MHz Bus clock rate for highest bus device compatibility as
defined in IEEE Spec P996. In controlled bus applications the HT21
supports up to a 12 MHz Bus Clock rate. This device is packaged in a
208-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack combining several external buffers into
this space saving solution.

**SN74LS610/2 IBM AT: SN74LS610, SN74LS612 Memory Mappers <84
***Notes:...
***Info:
Each 'LS610 and 'LS612 memory mapper integrated circuit contains a
4-line to 16-line decoder, a 16-word by 12-bit RAM, 16 channels of
2-line to 1-line multiplexers, and other miscellaneous circuitry on a
monolithic chip. Each 'LS610 also contains 12 latches with an enable
control.
The memory mappers are designed to expand a microprocessor's memory
addressing capability by eight bits. Four bits of the memory address
bus (see System Block Diagram)[see datasheet] can be used to select
one of 16 map registers that contain 12 bits each. these 12 bits are
presented to the system memory address bus through the map output
buffers along with the unused memory address bits from the CPU.
However, addressable memory space without reloading the map registers
is the same as would be available with the memory mapper left out.
The addressable memory space is increased only by periodically
reloading the map registers from the data bus. This configuration
lends itself to memory utilization of 16 pages of 2^(n-4) registers
each without reloading (n - number of address bits available from
CPU).
These devices have four modes of operation: read, write, map, and
pass. Data may be read from or loaded into the map register selected
by the register select inputs (RS0 thru RS3) under control of R/W
whenever chip select (CS) is low. The data I/O takes place on the data
bus DO thru D7. The map operation will output the contents of the map
register selected by the map address inputs (MA0 thru MA3) when CS is
high and MM (map mode control) is low. The 'LS612 output stages are
transparent in this mode, while the 'LS610 outputs may be transparent
or latched. When CS and MM are both high (pass mode), the address bits
on MA0 thru MA3 appear at M08-MO11, respectively (assuming appropriate
latch control) with low levels in the other bit positions on the map
outputs.
