**Spelling errors/mistyped words
Yes, I  know there are  spelling errors,  and things are  mistyped. It
seems no matter  how hard I try  my fingers hit 't'  twice when typing
'compatible' rendering it 'compattible' numerous, (thousands actually)
times.  I  don't have the  time or the will  to check the  spelling of
everything. Basic spell checking has been peformed. Please let me know
if  there is  anything that  would lead  to incorrect  information, or
something  is so  mangled  that  it needs  revising.  But  if you  can
basically  understand  what was  intended,  just  cope with  it.  Just
cope:-)

BTW, "110" port is  an "I/O" port that has been OCRed  badly, as is an
"1/0" port.

**WD7615     Desktop Buffer Manager                          <04/15/92
***Info:...
***Versions:...
***Features:
o   Allows the WD7XC10 based designs to work with a generic "Super l/O" 
    device or with the WD76C20 and WD76C30
o   Replaces majority of external "glue" logic, up to 13 devices:
    - AT bus address buffers with 24 mA drive
    - AT bus interrupt multiplexing, and interrupt pull ups.
    - AT bus DRQ multiplexing and internal pull downs.
    - Keyboard/mouse interrupt latching and clearing functions
    - A20 Gate logic
    - Controlling the IDE data bit 7 at address 3F7H.
o   Allows implementation of a desktop system with only three external 
    devices
o   Direct connect to AT address bus SA1 through SA19 and LA17 through 
    LA23 with 24 mA drive
o   DAC multiplexing and RESET generation
o   DRAM WE signal from WD76C10 inversion and buffering
o   SMEMR and SMEMW generation with 24mA direct drive
o   Divide by 2 or divide by 4 clock output
o   136-pin MQFP package
