**82C281/282     Cache Sx/AT         (386SX)                 <08/22/91
***Notes:...
***Info:...
***Configurations:...
***Features:
o   Flexible DRAM Banks Configuration
    - The 82C281/2 supports 256K, 1M, and 4M memory devices, total 
      main memory size can be up to 16MB. A total of 12 different 
      memory configurations are supported.
o   Page Mode Operation
    - Based on the memory configuration shown above [see datasheet], 
      the memory control unit inside the 820281/2 performs page mode 
      of operation with a varying block size of 1k, 2k, or 4k bytes 
      for 256k, 1M, or 4M DRAMs respectively.
o   System BIOS Shadow RAM
    - The 820281/2 memory control unit provides shadow RAM feature for 
      several areas of memory system BIOS, video BIOS, and adapter 
      BIOS.
o   Memory Remapping
    - If shadow RAM feature is not utilized for the memory area 
      between 0D0000H - 0EFFFFH, then memory remapping is possible. 
      The local DRAM areas, 0A0000H - 0BFFFFH and 0D0000H - 0EFFFFH, a 
      total of 256 KByte, are remapped to the top of total system 
      memory. The areas for 0F0000H-0FFFFFH (system BIOS) and 
      0C000H-0CFFFFH (Video BIOS) are reserved for shadow RAM purpose.
o   Flexible Multiplexed DRAM Address
o   Cache Control Subsystem
    - Direct-mapped posted write cache control function provides a low 
      cost alternative to enhance the system performance by up to 50%. 
      In order to simplify the design without increasing the system 
      cost or decreasing performance, the 82C281/2 has been designed 
      to support only non-pipeline mode for systems with cache memory.
      The 82C281/2 offers the following cache control features: 
      - Flexible  Cache Memory Size
        - 4MB Cacheabie main memory by using 16KB low cost SRAM.
        - 8MB Cacheable main memory by using 32KB low cost SRAM.
        - Cache 16MB main memory by using 64KB low cost SRAM.
        - Increase the cache size beyond 64KB up to 512KB
      - Cache Line Size 4 Byte
        - Burst mode memory prefetch is supported by the 82C281/2. 
          During cache read miss cycles, the memory control subsystem 
          will perform two consecutive read cycles to fetch 4 bytes 
          from main memory before terminating the cycle by sending 
          RDYO# signal to 3868X.
      - Non-Cacheable Area
        The non-cacheable areas are predefined as indicated below:
        - I/O address space
        - memory address between 0A0000H and 0FFFFFH.
        - any memory address beyond the current configured memory 
          size.
        - programmable non-cacheable memory area as defined by 
          82C281/2 internal registers.
      - 82C281 Posted Write Cache
        - The 820281 supports flexible direct-mapped cache with posted 
          write through update of main memory. By programming the 
          internal register, the post write control signals are 
          provided by the 820281 to support a one level write buffer. 
          With posted write, the CPU write cycles can be completed in 
          2 CPU T-States, thereby increasing system performance.
      - 820282 Write Through Cache
        - The 820282 supports a write-through cache system which 
          allows the designer to reduce system cost by eliminating two
          F244's and two F373‘s with only a slight reduction in system 
          performance (5-10%).
      - AT Bus Control
        - The 820281/2 AT bus control unit handles all of the AT bus 
          operations and the DMA/Refresh arbitration. The AT bus 
          control unit supports the following features:
          - Programmable AT Bus Clock - The AT bus clock, ATCLK. can 
            be programmed as CLK2/6, which is default, or CLK2/4.
          - Turbo Switch - The 820281/2 provides a turbo switch 
            feature that allows users to change the system clock
            speed. A programmable bit will enable or disable this 
            turbo function. When the turbo function is enabled by 
            setting reg[14H], bit[1] to 1, the 82C281/2 turbo pin 
            then determines the system clock speed. A low on the 
            turbo pin forces the CPU to run at the current AT bus 
            speed which IS CLK2/6 or CLK2/4.
