**82C496/7 DXBB PC/AT Chipset (Cached) <01/16/92
***Info:
The OPTi 82C497 is a Direct Mapped Write Back cache controller with
one level write buffer that is an optional part of the DXBB (Building
Block) Chip set. The DXBB also contains the 82C496 and the 82C206,
which form the heart of the system. The 82C497 is added to the DXBB
chip set for cache based systems.
The OPTi 82C496 offers an upgradable CPU module base-board solution
for the 80386 or the 80486 PC/AT system. By swapping the CPU module,
the vendor can configure the 82C496 driven base-board into various
32-bit AT systems - 386 or 486 CPU, with cache or without cache and
rated at 16MHz- 50MHz.
For the Non-Cache systems, the CPU interfaces directly with the 82C496
and the local devices, like the local VGA controller or the local hard
disk adaptor.
For cache based systems the 82C497 (the cache controller) sits between
the CPU and the 82C496 and the local devices. All the high frequency
signals are isolated by the 82C497. This allows the base-board to run
at a fixed speed (25 or 33MHz) - while the CPU and the Cache can run
synchronously at any determined rated speed. This provides a reliable
upgrade method for the CPU modules.
