**W83759/A/F/AF   Advanced VL-IDE Disk Controller                  <96
***Notes:...
***Info:...
***Versions:...
***Features:
o  Pin-to-pin backward compatible with W83759 VL-IDE Interface chip
o  VESA VL-Bus Rev 2.0 compatible, connects directly to local bus and 
   four IDE drives
o  Direct interface to various ANSI ATA/ATA-2/FAST ATA/IDE-2/Enhanced 
   IDE drives
o  Supports 32 and 16-bit data transfer
o  Fully software programmable for command active/recovery time and 
   address setup, data hold time
o  Built-in VL-Bus to 16-bit IO data buffer for special applications
o  Fully supports Enhanced IDE features, including Fast PIO, Mode 3/4, 
   IORDY flow control, prefetch control
o  Supports dual channels to allow up to four drives or non-disk 
   devices (ATAPI CD-ROM and tape drives)
o  Pipeline pre-fetched reads and posted writes for concurrent disk 
   and host operations
o  Independent access timing for all drives (primary/secondary and 
   master/slave)
o  All Enhanced IDE new features may be disabled/enabled via driver 
   or power-on setting by per drive selectability
o  ATA/Mode 0-4 PIO speed may be set as default timing of each drive 
   via power-on jumper setting
o  Supports slave DMA mode protocol (reserved)
o  Supports auto power-down, standby, suspend APM power management 
   state for green PCs
o  Primary and secondary channel can be independently enabled/disabled 
   by software or jumper setting
o  Supports drivers for DOS, Windows, OS/2, UNIX, and Netware
o  Packaged in 100-pin QFP
