**TACT83000   AT 'Tiger' Chip Set (386)                            c89
***Info:
The Texas Instruments TACT83000 AT Chip Set is designed for cached and
noncached 386-based  PC-AT compatible systems running at  speeds up to
33 MHz.  Manufactured with high-speed  1-um CMOS EPIC  technology, the
chip set is functionally partitioned into three devices: the TACT83443
AT Bus Interface Unit (ATU),  the TACT83442 Memory Control Unit (MCU),
and the  TACT83441 Data  Path Unit  (DPU).  The ATU  is packaged  in a
208-lead  plastic quad  flatpack  (QFP),  while the  MCU  and DPU  are
packaged in 100-lead plastic QFPs

These three chips, along with four other logic chips, comprise all the
logic  necessary for  a  fully compatible  16-bit 3868X-based  system.
Since one DPU provides a 16-bit data path, a 32-bit 386DX-based system
requires an additional DPU.

With software-controlled configuration registers  on board the ATU and
MCU,  the  chip set  supports  a wide  variety  of  PC system  config-
urations.  For complete programming  details, see the TACT8300 AT Chip
Set User’s Guide, literature number SRZU001.
