**VL82C031/032/033      PS/2 Model 30-compatible chip set          c88
***Notes:...
***Info:
The chip set  integrates logic on PS/2 Model  30-Compatible systems to
the point of  reducing the printed circuit board device  count by half
when  memories   are  excluded.   Further,  while   offering  complete
compatibility with the PS/2 Model  30-Compatible system, the VLSI chip
set improves system  performance by allowing 10 MHz  operation with no
"wait states" (using 150 ns DRAMs), supports an additional 8M bytes of
memory  using EMS  (Expanded Memory  Specification) 4.0,  and controls
system speed as necessary for optimum performance.

A third  device the  VL82C037 VGA Video  Graphics Controller,  is also
used  in  the  PS/2  Model  30-Compatible  system  and  provides  high
resolution graphics of up to 800  x 600 pixels with 16 colors. Graphic
capabilities  with this  resolution  are usually  found  only on  more
expensive systems.

The VL82C031  provides the PS/2  Model 30-Compatible system  with dual
speed  control,  8 MHz  or  10  MHz, to  operate  the  system at  peak
performance.  The device  also controls  memory, I/O,  parity, address
paths, and  data paths  as well  as handling  four channels  of direct
memory access. The VL82C031 is available from VLSI Technology, Inc. in
an industry-standard plastic 100-pin flatpack.

The CMOS VL82C031 is the System Controller device in the two-chip VLSI
PS/2 Model 30-Compatible chip set.

The  chip can  be  brought  to a  power-down  mode  to conserve  power
dissipation when static RAM is used. The chip can then be woke up from
power-down mode by an external interrupt.

The VL82C032 provides the PS/2 Model 30-Compatible system with control
of both the keyboard and the pointing device ("mouse"), control of two
serial  communi-  cation  channels,  a real-time  clock,  as  well  as
controlling  both the  disk  storage and  display  functions. It  also
provides  the chip  select logic  for the  functions in  controls. The
VL82C032  is available  from VLSI  Technology, Inc.   in an  industry-
standard plastic 100-pin flatpack.

The  CMOS  VL82C032  is  the Input/Output  Controller  device  in  the
two-chip VLSI PS/2 Model 30-compatible chip set.

[The following text is from the '88 version:]

The VL82C033/OTi-033 is the Floppy  Disk Controller and Data Separator
device  in  the three  chip  VLSI/OTi  PS/2 Model  30-Compatible  chip
set. The other two devices  are the VL82C031/OTi-031 System Controller
and the VL82C032/OTi-032 I/O Controller.

The VL82C033/OTi-033 provides the PS/2 Model 30-Compatible system with
a uPD  756A- compatible floppy  disk controller function,  a precision
analog  data separator,  an  internal phase  comparator, the  required
filters,  as  well as  a  voltage  controlled oscillator  (VCO).   The
VL82C033/OTi-033  provides the  system with  three floppy  disk rates:
250K bits-per-second, 300K bits-per-second, and 500K bits-per- second.
the VL82C033/OTi-033 is available form  both VLSI Technology, Inc. and
Oak Technology, Inc.  in an industry-standard plastic 48 pin DIP.
