**SL9251   80386SX Page Interleave Memory Controller         <04/13/90
***Info:
The SL9251  Memory Controller supports PC/AT systems  based on Intel's
80386SX microprocessor. It  is a member of VIA's  FlexSet family which
utilizes the  same core  logic across the  entire PC/AT  spectrum. The
SL9251 is backward compatible with existing memory controllers for the
80386SX (SL9250).  Boards designed using  the SL9250 can be  used with
the new SL9251 without modifications  and with existing BIOS. In order
to  take advantage  of the  SL9251's many  new  programmable features,
minor board modification and a  modified BIOS is required for enhanced
performance.

The SL9251  offers the advanced memory control  functions and features
needed  to  develop  high  performance  PC/AT  systems  without  using
external  TTL  Logic.  The  SL9251  supports  two-way  and 4-way  page
interleave mode for 80386SX  based designs. The Page interleave option
can  be enabled  or disabled  using the  configuration  registers. All
memory   banks  which   are   interleaved  use   the   same  type   of
memory. Designers can enable  the staggered RAS option during refresh,
which minimizes power surge.  Both pipeline and non-pipeline modes are
supported  by enabling  or disabling  the next  address  controls, and
providing ready at the correct time.
