**82498/493   Cache Controller / Cache RAM (for P54 Pentium)    <Nov94
***Notes:...
***Info:
The 82498 Cache Controller and multiple 82493 Cache SRAMs combine with
the Pentium processor (735/90,  815/100) and future Pentium Processors
to form a CPU Cache chip set designed for high performance servers and
function-rich  desktops. The high-speed  interconnect between  the CPU
and  cache components has  been optimized  to provide  zero-wait state
operation. This CPU  Cache chip set is fully  compatible with existing
software,  and has new  data integrity  features for  mission critical
applications.

The 82498 Cache Controller implements the MESI write-back protocol for
full multiprocessing support.  Dual ported buffers and registers allow
the 82498  to concurrently  handle CPU bus,  memory bus,  and internal
cache operation for maximum performance.

The 82493 is a customized high-performance SRAM that supports 64-, and
128-bit  wide memory  bus widths,  32-,  and 64-byte  line sizes,  and
optional sectoring. The  data path between the CPU  bus and memory bus
is  separated  by  the  82493,  allowing  the  CPU  bus  to  handshake
synchronously,  asynchronously,  or   with  a  strobed  protocol,  and
allowing concurrent CPU bus and memory bus operations.

**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.
