**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.
