**5597/5598 (Jedi) Pentium PCI/ISA Chipset <04/15/97
***Info:
Nowadays, several PC form factors exist in the PC board market, such
as NLX, LPX, ATX and Baby-AT form factors. Due to the different
placements of the form factor, PC chipsets should be prepared for
different board layouts. As a result, SiS chips based on compatible
logic design provide two series of chipsets, SiS 5597 and SiS 5598, to
assist board designers for their board layouts.
SiS 5597’s pin assignment is based on NLX, and LPX form factor, while
SiS 5598’s is defined on the basis of ATX and Baby-AT form factors. In
the next few chapters, you will read “SiS Chip” which indicates either
SiS 5597 or 5598 chipsets, decided by the placements of form factors
on PC boards of customers.
The SiS Chip with built-in VGA controller is a highly integrated
single chip solution for Pentium PCI/ISA system. A portion of on-board
DRAM is shared with the integrated VGA controller. In that way, the
system cost is substantially reduced and on-board DRAM can be used
flexibly.
The SiS Chip consists of Host-to-PCI bridge function, PCI to ISA
bridge function, PCI IDE function, Universal Serial Bus host/hub
function, Integrated RTC, Integrated Keyboard Controller and Graphics/
Video accelerate function.
SiS Chip supports Enhanced Power Management, including legacy Power
Management Unit and Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
(ACPI). It also supports ATA Synchronous DMA transfer protocol to
improve the IDE performance and Common Architecture for moving ISA
function to PCI to improve system performance.

**VT82C496G Pluto, Green PC 80486 PCI/VL/ISA System <05/30/94
***Info:
The VT82C496G is a cost-effective implementation of a high
integration, high performance and high energy efficient VL/ISA system
based on the 80486SX/DX/DX2/DX4 or compatible processor. With an
optional VT82C505 VL-PCI bridge, the system can be extended to the
PCI/VL/ISA platform that offers top rated PCI performance and proven
PCI-2.0 compliance. In either case, the VT82C496G interfaces directly
with the VT82C406MV IXP (Integrated X-bus Peripherals) that replaces
the multiclock generator, the keyboard controller with PS2 mouse
support, the DS-1285 style real time clock with 128 byte of CMOS RAM
and certain amount of glue logic. Less than ten TTLs are required for
a complete main board implementation in addition to the chips
mentioned above.
In addition to the VL bus controller, cache and DRAM controller and
ISA bus controller with the 82C206 peripherals (DMA, interrupt
controller and timer), the VT82C496G also includes a flexible CPU
interface, a notebook class power management unit and a local bus IDE
controller to meet the demand of the state-of-art computing
requirement. The function block diagram of the VT82C496G is indicated
in Figure 1. The system block diagram of a PCI/VL/ISA system based on
the VT82C496G is indicated in Figure 2. [see datasheet]
