**CS8221 NEW Enhanced AT (NEAT) (82C211/82C212/82C215/82C206) c86
***Info:
The CS8221 PC/AT compatible NEAT CHIPSet is an enhanced, high
performance 4 chip VLSI implementation (including the 82C206 IPC) of
the control logic used on the IBM Personal Computer AT. The flexible
architecture of the NEAT CHIPSet allows it to be used in any 80286
based system.
The CS8221 NEAT CHIPSet provides a complete 286 PC/AT compatible
system, requiring only 24 logic components plus memory devices.
The CS8221 NEAT CHIPSet consists of the 82C211 CPU/Bus controller, the
82C212 Page/interleave and EMS Memory controller. the 82C215
Data/Address buffer and the 82C206 Integrated Peripherals Controller
(IPC).
The NEAT CHIPSet supports the local CPU bus, a 16 bit system memory
bus, and the AT buses as shown in the NEAT System Block Diagram [see
datasheet]. The 82C211 provides synchronization and control signals
for all buses. The 82C211 also provides an independent AT bus clock
and allows for dynamic selection between the processor clock and the
user selectable AT bus clock. Command delays and wait states are
software configurable, providing flexibility for slow or fast peri-
pheral boards.
The 82C212 Page/interleave and EMS Memory controller provides an
interleaved memory sub-system design with page mode operation. It
supports up to 8 MB of on-board DRAM with combinations of 64Kbit,
256Kbit and 1Mbit DRAMs. The processor can operate at 16MHz with
0.5-0.7 wait state memory accesses, using 100 nsec DRAMs. This is
possible through the Page Interleaved memory scheme. The Shadow RAM
feature allows taster execution of code stored in EPROM, by down
loading code from EPROM to RAM. The RAM then shadows the EPROM for
further code execution. In a DOS environment, memory above 1Mb can be
treated as LIM EMS memory.
The 82C215 Data/Address buffer provides the buffering and latching
between the local CPU address bus and the Peripheral address bus. It
also provides buffering between the local CPU data bus and the memory
data bus. The parity bit generation and error detection logic resides
in the 82C215.
The 82C206 Integrated Peripherals Controller is an integral part of
the NEAT CHIPSet. It is described in the 82C206 Integrated Peri-
pherals Controller data book.
System Overview
The CS8221 NEAT CHIPSet is designed for use in 12 to 16 MHz 80286
based systems and provides complete support for the IBM PC/AT
bus. There are four buses supported by the CS8221 NEAT CHIPSet as
shown in Figure 1 [see datasheet]: CPU local bus (A and D), system
memory bus (MA and MD), I/O channel bus (SA and SD), and X bus (XA and
XD). The system memory bus is used to interface the CPU to the DRAMs
and EPROMs controlled by the 82C212. The I/O channel bus refers to
the bus supporting the AT bus adapters which could be either 8 bit or
16 bit devices. The X bus refers to the peripheral bus to which the
82C206 IPC and other peripherals are attached in an IBM PC/AT.

***Info:
The CS82310 PEAK/DM CHIPSet is a three chip VLSI implementation of the
systems logic required to implement a cache-based 386DX system. This
CHIPSet is designed to offer a 100% PC/AT compatible Integrated
solution. The flexible architecture of the PEAK/DM allows it to be
used in any iAPX386-based system design such as CAD/CAE workstations,
office systems, industrial and financial transaction systems. The
CS82310 PEAK/DM CHIPSet provides a complete cache based 386/AT system
using only 19 components plus memory devices. The CS82310 PEAK/DM
CHIPSet consists of one 82C351 CPU/cache/DRAM controller, one 82C355
data buffer, and one 82C356 peripheral controller. The CHIPSet
supports a local CPU bus, a 32-bit memory bus, and AT buses.
82C351 CPU/Cache/D RAM/Controller
By integrating both the cache and DRAM control functions in one chip,
the 82C351 supports simultaneous activation of cache and DRAM
accesses; minimizing the cache miss penalty. It has hardware support
to allow the user to designate up to four blocks (of variable size
from 4KB to 4MB) of main memory as non-cacheable address space. The
82C351 cache controller supports a direct mapped cache architecture
and cache sizes of 32KB, 64KB, 128KB, or 256KB. Memory write updates
are implemented using a buffered write-through scheme. The 82C351 is
available in a 160-pin PFP package.
82C355 Data Buffer
The 82C355 bus controller contains the data buffers used to interface
the local and system memory buses and a path for the AT data bus. In
addition to having high current bus drive, it also performs
conversions between the different sized data paths and provides parity
generation and checking. The 82C355 is available in a 120-pin PFP
package.
82C356 Peripheral Controller
The 82C356 peripheral controller contains the address buffers used to
interface between the processor address bus (A<23:2>) and the system
address bus (SA<19:0>). It also contains an equivalent 82C206
integrated peripheral controller that incorporates: two 8237 DMA
controllers, two 8259 interrupt controllers, one 8254 timer/counter,
one MC146818 real time clock, and several TTL/SSI interface logic
chips.
