**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.

**W83977ATF       WINBOND I/O (Multi I/O)                          <98
***Info:
GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The W83977ATF is  an evolving product from Winbond's  most popular I/O
chip W83877F --- which integrates  the disk drive adapter, serial port
(UART),  IrDA  1.0  SIR,  parallel  port,  configurable  plug-and-play
registers for  the whole chip  --- plus additional  powerful features:
ACPI,  8042 keyboard controller  with PS/2  mouse support,  23 general
purpose  I/O  ports,  full  16-bit address  decoding,  OnNow  keyboard
wake-up, OnNow mouse wake-up, and  OnNow CIR wake-up. In addition, the
W83977ATF provides IR  functions: IrDA 1.1 (MIR for  1.152M bps or FIR
for  4M bps)  and TV  remote IR  (Consumer IR,  supporting  NEC, RC-5,
extended RC-5, and RECS-80 protocols).

The disk  drive adapter functions  of W83977ATF include a  floppy disk
drive  controller compatible  with the  industry standard  82077/ 765,
data  separator, write  pre-compensation circuit,  decode  logic, data
rate selection,  clock generator,  drive interface control  logic, and
interrupt and DMA  logic. The wide range of  functions integrated onto
the W83977ATF  greatly reduces the  number of components  required for
interfacing with floppy disk drives. The W83977ATF supports four 360K,
720K, 1.2M, 1.44M, or 2.88M disk drives and data transfer rates of 250
Kb/s, 300 Kb/s, 500 Kb/s,1 Mb/s, and 2 Mb/s.

The  W83977ATF  provides  two  high-speed serial  communication  ports
(UARTs),  one of  which supports  serial Infrared  communication. Each
UART includes  a 16-byte send/receive  FIFO, a programmable  baud rate
generator,  complete   modem  control  capability,   and  a  processor
interrupt system. Both UARTs provide legacy speed with baud rate up to
115.2k bps and  also advanced speed with baud rates  of 230k, 460k, or
921k  bps which support  higher speed  modems. The  W83977ATF provides
independent 3rd UART(32-byte FIFO) dedicated for the IR function.

The   W83977ATF  supports  one   PC-compatible  printer   port  (SPP),
Bi-directional  Printer port  (BPP)  and also  Enhanced Parallel  Port
(EPP) and  Extended Capabilities Port (ECP). Through  the printer port
interface pins,  also available are: Extension FDD  Mode and Extension
2FDD  Mode allowing  one  or two  external  floppy disk  drives to  be
connected.

The   configuration  registers   support   mode  selection,   function
enable/disable,  and power down  function selection.  Furthermore, the
configurable  PnP  features  are  compatible  with  the  plug-and-play
feature demand of Windows 95TM, which makes system resource allocation
more efficient than ever.

The  W83977ATF  provides functions  that  comply  with ACPI  (Advanced
Configuration and  Power Interface), which includes  support of legacy
and  ACPI power  management  through  SMI or  SCI  function pins.  The
W83977ATF also has auto power management to reduce power consumption.

The keyboard  controller is based  on 8042 compatible  instruction set
with a 2K Byte programmable ROM and a 256-Byte RAM bank. Keyboard BIOS
firmware is available with  optional AMIKEY-2, Phoenix MultiKey/42, or
customer code.

The W83977ATF provides a set  of flexible I/O control functions to the
system designer through a set of General Purpose I/O ports. These GPIO
ports may  serve as  simple I/O or  may be individually  configured to
provide a predefined alternate function.

The W83977ATF  is made  to fully comply  with Microsoft  PC97 Hardware
Design  Guide. IRQs,  DMAs, and  I/O  space resource  are flexible  to
adjust to  meet ISA  PnP requirement. Moreover,  W83977ATF is  made to
meet the specification of  PC97's requirement in the power management:
ACPI and DPM (Device Power Management).

Another  benifit is  that W83977ATF  has  the same  pin assignment  as
W83977AF, W83977F, W83977TF. This makes the design very flexible.
