See the M1531 section for details on the M1533.
The datasheet is very confusing as it does not state how the terms
M1531, M1532, Aladdin V and Aladdin V+ relate to each other. According
to:
http://pclinks.xtreemhost.com/chipsets_pentium.htm
The Aladdin V and Aladdin V+ names are both associated with the M1541.
The M1541 has 5 revisions, A thru E. The M1542 part number is assoc-
iated with revision F onwards. The main difference with the M1542 is
that it now can cache 512MB of RAM, instead of only 128MB. The diff-
erence between the Aladdin V and Aladdin V+ is that the V+ officially
supports a 100 MHz bus, the V only 83.3 MHz.
However, none of this information can be derived from the datasheets
used to write the info and features section.

**82C599 PCI-VLB Bridge [no datasheet, some info] ?
82C599 PCI-VLB Bridge referenced in:
http://web.mit.edu/netbsd/src/sys/dev/pci/pcidevs
from:
https://web.archive.org/web/20050313090427/http://www.os2forum.or.at/english/info/os2hardwareinfo/pci_chips.html
"The Contaq Chipset (Contaq: 1080/4224) (8/27/95)
The Contaq 82C599 is paired with one of their 486VL chipsets (82C596
or 82C597) and bridges directly from the 486 CPU to the PCI bus.
Paraphrased from the Contaq spec.:
The 82C596 system controller provides the CPU interface, VESA bus
interface, ISA bus controller, etc. The 82C599 PCI controller provides
the bridge between PCI master/slave agent and the ISA/VESA standard
expansion bus; it arbitrates all the bus transactions between host
CPU, PCI agent, VESA device, and ISA device.
(Which sounds to me like the PCI bus is attached to the VL bus, rather
than to the CPU, which will cause PCI performance degradation.)"
