**82C381/382 HiD/386 (386DX) c:89
***Info:
The HiD/386 Chipset, 82C381 and 82C382D, support high integration
implementations of Direct Mapped Cache with 32KB/64KB/128KB Cache for
25 and 33 MHz 386/AT Personal Computers. Combined with the 82C206
Integrated Peripherals Controller, it integrates the 386/AT mother-
board to under 20 devices, plus memory. It is designed to cost reduce
discrete and CHIPS’CS8230 based 82385 Cache 386/AT designs, as well as
boost the performance of these designs to 33 MHz, with >64KB Cache.
The 82681 provides system control logic and data bus conversion logic.
The control logic consists of 386 CPU control logic, AT Bus cycle
control, 387 Numeric Processor control logic, synchronous clock divide
logic and control of the local peripheral bus. The data bus conversion
logic consists of various 8, 16, 32 bit conversions for ROM cycles, AT
bus cycles and memory cycles.
The 820382D performs the Memory Management functions for the HiD/AT
chipset. It is designed to optimize cost of high performance 386/AT
systems with 64KB, l28KB or larger Direct Mapped Cache Memory. It also
implements logic to maintain compatibility in the AT environment . It
provides a Page Interleave backend for main DRAM memory, in order to
improve performance during miss cycles. It also has features for
reducing system cost.
It minimizes Cache Memory cost by allowing the use of slow SRAM; by
supporting single EPROM BIOS configurations; putting DRAM on the local
bus and consequently reducing DRAM speeds by 15ns typically; and by
remapping 256K of DRAM between 640K and 1024K to top of main memory.
It provides a very flexible implementation of paging for the main DRAM
memory. For even bank configurations, it provides 2-way or 4-way
interleaving; for odd banks it provides paging. This provides a
flexible approach to increasing the size of the local memory as
software demands increase, without imposing a penalty on performance.
Finally, memory performance is optimized by shadow RAM techniques for
BIOS ROMs; concatenated pages for multiple hank configurations; paging
for odd banks; and variable page size for larger DRAMs.
System Architecture
The HiD/AT chipset is compatible with the 82C206 Integrated
Peripherals Controller. Consequently, with the 82C206, a very high
integration and very high performance 386/AT can be implemented. A
typical motherboard can be designed with less than 20 devices plus
memory.
For larger AT designs, targeted at file-servers and departmental
computers, designs with 8 or more slots can be supported with external
AT bus drivers.

**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.
