**WD8110        System controller for 80386DX/486            <11/30/93
***Notes:...
***Info:
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The  WD8110/LV  System Controllers  are  designed  to  provide a  high
performance,  single chip  system controller  supporting  all 80486SX,
80486DX.   80386SX   and  80386DX  CPUs  in  AT   bus  based  Desktop/
Laptop/Notebook/Pen-based systems.

1.1 DOCUMENT SCOPE
This document  describes the function  and operation of  the WD8110/LV
System Controller  devices.  It  includes the description  of external
logic necessary for  efficient use of these devices.  The WD8110/LV is
also referred to in this document as the System Controller.

1.3 WD8110/LV POWER MANAGEMENT

Power Management Control (PMC) is used for powering down the processor
or peripherals  and includes processor  stop clock, slow  clock, auto-
matic processor  clock speed switching  modes and CAS before  RAS slow
refresh.  Suspend  and resume  is  supported  and  low power  DRAM  is
refreshed while  the processor and  other power consuming  devices are
turned off. The  power drain for the core logic  and VGA controller is
less than 2  mA in this mode. Power and clock  speed may be controlled
by the Keyboard Controller.  transparently to the 80386 or 80486.

The  System  Activity Monitor  (SAM)  is  a  transparent feature  that
replaces  the functions  previously performed  by software.  It senses
when the  system has been idle  for a previously  programmed period at
time and determines a clean break point in which to perform power down
activities such as suspend.

The system controller also  supports System Management Interrupt (SMI)
with  complete I/O trapping  of up  to six  separate I/O  ranges. Each
range  has an  independent timer  which can  generate an  SMI  after a
programmed period of time during which there was no I/0 access to that
range.

1.3.1 Desktop Applications
The  WD8110/LV provides a  high performance  solution with  a flexible
memory controller  architecture.  including support for  five banks of
memory.  The WD8110/LV can  fully support an external look-aside cache
or a  combination primary and  secondary cache. This feature  makes it
particularly  suitable for  use with  cached microprocessors  where it
maintains cache coherency via its built-in bus snooping capability. In
addition. the WD8110/LV supports  Video Local Bus Interface (VLBI) for
enhanced graphics performance.

The built-in power management features  of the WD8110/LV allows a high
performance yet power efficient desk top solution.

1.3.2 Portable Applications
The  WD8110LV  is  an  ideal  choice because  of  its  advanced  power
management  features  and  power  saving  3.3  volt  operation,  which
delivers long  battery life  in a compact  footprint. This makes  it a
perfect choice for laptop, notebook, pen-based and palmtop computers.

The five bank memory controller on the WD8110LV provides the user with
great flexibility  in the selection of  3.3 volt DRAMs  to meet system
memory  requirements in  low voltage  platforms.  The  WD8110LV memory
controller  supports   JEDEC  standard   3.3  volt  DRAM   in  various
configurations, including the JEIDA standard 88-pin DRAM card.

The WD8ll0/LV can be paired  with the appropriate support devices from
Western  Digital  to  deliver  the  most efficient  solution  for  any
platform.  For 5 volt desktop or portable platforms, the WD8l10/LV can
be used  with the  WD76C20 Peripheral Controller  and the  WD76C30 I/O
Controller. The WD8110 may also be used with the WD7615 Buffer Manager
device and  a generic Super I/O  chip to implement a  low cost desktop
platform. For 3.3 volt applications, the WD8110LV can be used with the
WD76C20ALV and WD76C30ALV, both of which incorporate level translators
(split rail operation). For subnotebook and palmtop type applications,
WD7625LV buffer  manager and  WD8120LV Super I/O  can be added  to the
WD8110LV based solution to achieve a very compact footprint.

The WD8110/LV  is a fifth generation system  controller device derived
from  core chips  with  proven compatibility  and  design maturity  in
several  of the  industry's  leading desktop  and portable  platforms.
Designed with  the state of the  art 0.9 micron  high performance CMOS
process.  the  WD8110/LV family maintains  architectural compatibility
with Western Digital's WD7600 and WD7855 systems logic chip sets while
incorporating many additional performance enhancements.
