**HT22          386SX/286 Single Chip (25 MHz)                 c:Sep91
***Info:
The HT22  is an  advanced PC/AT compatible,  single-chip 80386SX/80286
system  design solution.   This highly  integrated single  chip allows
simple, low  cost system design  options while featuring  high perfor-
mance,  low  power  consumption,  and  minimum  board  space  require-
ments. Advanced  memory management  features include support  for page
mode,  2 or  4-way interleaving  in both  pipelined  and non-pipelined
modes.  The EMS  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  has  been added  for  maximum EMS  4.0
compatibility. The HTZ2 supports 256K, 1M  and 4MB DRAMs in 1 by 1 and
1 by 4 device configurations for up to 20MB of on-board system memory.
16MB  is  addressed  directly   by  system  resources,  the  remainder
addressed by the EMS mode.

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 HT22 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 compat-
ibility as  defined in IEEE  Spec P996. This  device is packaged  in a
208-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack.

**VT82C680     Apollo P6, Pentium-Pro Chip Set               <08/30/96
***Notes:...
***Info:
The  VT82C680  Apollo-P6 is  a  high  performance, cost-effective  and
energy efficient  chip set for  the implementation of  PCI/ISA desktop
and  notebook personal  computer systems  based  on the  64 bit  Intel
Pentium-Pro  super-scalar  processors.   The chipset  supports  multi-
Pentium-Pro configuration  with Intel GTL+ driver  and receiver inter-
face up  to 66 MHz external  CPU bus speed.  The  chipset supports the
Pentium-Pro CPU multi-phase bus protocols for split transactions, four
level deep  in-order queue and  deferred transactions for  optimal CPU
throughput.

The VT82C680 chip set consists  of the VT82C685 system controller, the
VT82C687 data buffer and the  VT82C586 PCI to ISA bridge. The VT82C680
supports six banks  of DRAMs up to 1 GB.  The DRAM controller supports
Standard Page Mode DRAM, EDO-DRAM, Burst EDO-DRAM and Synchronous DRAM
in a  flexible mixed/match manner. The Burst-EDO  and Synchronous DRAM
allows zero wait state bursting between the DRAM and the VT82C687 data
buffers at  66 MHz. The six  banks of DRAM allow  arbitrary mixture of
1M/2M/4M/8M/16MxN  DRAMs  with optional  bank-by-bank  ECC and  parity
support. The chipset supports sixteen level (quadwords) of CPU to DRAM
write  buffers and  sixteen  level  (quadwords) of  DRAM  to CPU  read
buffers to  maximize the CPU bus  and DRAM utilization.  The peak data
transfer rate for the EDO and Synchronous DRAM (or Burst EDO) DRAMs is
266 MB/s and 532 MB/s, respectively.

The VT82C680 supports 3.3/5v 32 bit PCI bus with 64 bit to 32 bit data
conversion.  Sixteen levels  (doublewords) of  post write  buffers are
included to  allow for concurrent  CPU and PCI  operation. Consecutive
CPU addresses  are converted into  burst PCI cycles with  Byte merging
capability  for  optimal  CPU   to  PCI  throughput.  For  PCI  master
operation,  sixteen levels  (doublewords)  of post  write buffers  and
thirty-two levels  (doublewords) of prefetch buffers  are included for
concurrent PCI bus and  DRAM/cache accesses. The chipset also supports
enhanced    PCI    bus     commands    such    as    Memory-Read-Line,
Memory-Read-Multiple  and  Memory-Write-Invalid  commands to  minimize
snoop overhead.  In addition,  the chipset supports  advanced features
such as  snoop ahead, snoop  filtering, CPU write-back forward  to PCI
master  and CPU  write-back  merged  with PCI  post  write buffers  to
minimize PCI  master read latency  and DRAM utilization.  The VT82C586
PCI to ISA bridge supports  four levels (doublewords) of line buffers,
type F DMA transfers and  delay transaction to allow efficient PCI bus
utilization (PCI-2.1 compliant). The VT82C586 also includes integrated
keyboard controller  with PS2 mouse support,  integrated DS12885 style
real time  clock with  extended 128 Byte  CMOS RAM,  integrated master
mode enhanced  IDE controller with full scatter  and gather capability
and extension  to 33 MB/sec UltraDMA-33 transfer  rate, integrated USB
interface with root hub and  two function ports with built-in physical
layer transceiver, and OnNow/ACPI compliant advanced configuration and
power management  interface. A complete main board  can be implemented
with only six TTLs.

The VT82C680 is ideal for  high performance, high quality, high energy
efficient and  high integration desktop and  notebook PCI/ISA computer
systems.
