**5595 Pentium PCI System I/O <12/24/97
***Notes:...
***Info:
SiS5595 is a highly integrated system I/O that constitutes a high
performance, rich featured, yet glueless solution for both Pentium and
Pentium II systems.
The SiS5595 PCI system I/O integrates the PCI-to-ISA bridge with the
DDMA and PC/PCI DMA, Serial IRQ capability, the ACPI/Legacy PMU, the
Data Acquisition Interface, the Universal Serial Bus host/hub
interface, and the ISA bus interface, which contains the ISA bus
controller, the DMA controllers, the interrupt controllers, and the
Timers. It also integrates the Keyboard controller, and the Real Time
Clock (RTC). The built-in USB controller, which is fully compliant to
OHCI (Open Host Controller Interface), provides two USB ports capable
of running full/low speed USB devices. The Data Acquisition Interface
offers the ability of monitoring and reporting the environmental
condition of the PC. It could monitor 5 positive analog voltage
inputs, 2 Fan speed inputs, and one external temperature inputs. It
also integrates the automatic power control logic to control the power
ON/OFF for ATX power supply. In addition, SiS5595 also integrates the
thermal detection and frequency ratio control logic for Pentium II
CPU.
