**CS8281 NEATsx (386SX) (82C811/812/215/206) c:Dec89
***Info:
The CS8281 NEATsx CHlPSet, which is composed of four VLSI devices, is
a high-performance, 100%-compatible enhanced implementation of the
control logic used in the IBM PC AT. The flexible architecture of the
NEATsx CHIPSet allows it to be used as the basis for any
386sx-compatible system.
The CS8281 NEATsx CHIPSet provides a complete 386sx PC/AT compatible
system, requiring only 24 logic components plus memory devices.
The CS8281 NEATsx CHIPSet consists of the 82C811 CPU/bus controller,
the 82C812 page/interleave and EMS memory controller, the 82C215
data/address buffer, and the 82C206 integrated peripherals controller
(IPC).
The NEATsx CHIPSet supports a local CPU bus, a 16-bit system memory
bus, and the AT buses as shown in the NEATsx system block diagram [see
datasheet]. The 82C811 provides synchronization and control signals
for all buses. The 82C811 also provides an independent AT bus clock
and allows for dynamic selection between the processor clock and a
user~selectable AT bus clock. Because command delays and wait states
are configured by software, peripheral boards are provided with
maximum flexibility.
The 82C812 page/interleave and EMS memory controller provides an
interleaved memory subsystem design with page mode operation. It sup-
ports up to 8MB of DRAM with combinations of 256Kb and 1Mb DRAMs. The
processor can operate at 16 MHz with 0.7 wait state memory accesses,
using 100 nsec DRAMs. This is possible through a page interleaved
memory scheme. A RAM shadowing feature allows faster execution of
EPROM stored BIOS code by downloading and executing code from RAM. in
a DOS environment memory above 1MB can be used as EMS memory.
The 82C215 data/address buffer provides 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. Parity bit generation and error detection logic resides in the
82C215.
The 82C206 integrated peripherals controller is an integral part of
the NEATsx CHIPSet. It is described in the 82C206 data book.
System Overview
The CS8281 NEATsx CHIPSet is designed for use in 12-16 MHz 80386 based
systems and provides complete support for the IBM PC AT bus. Four
buses are supported by the CS8281 NEATsx CHIPSet: the CPU local bus (A
and D); the system memory bus (MA and MD); the I/O channel bus (SA and
SD); and the X bus (XA and XD). The system memory bus provides an
interface between the CPU and the DRAMs and EPROMS controlled by the
82C812. The I/O channel bus refers to the bus supporting the
AT-compatible bus adapters which can be either 8- or 16-bit devices.
The X bus is the peripheral bus to which the 82C206 IPC and other
peripherals are attached in an IBM PC AT.

**82C381/382 HiD/386 (386DX) c:89
***Info:
The HiD/386 Chipset, 82C381 and 82C382D, support high integration
implementations of Direct Mapped Cache with 32KB/64KB/128KB Cache for
25 and 33 MHz 386/AT Personal Computers. Combined with the 82C206
Integrated Peripherals Controller, it integrates the 386/AT mother-
board to under 20 devices, plus memory. It is designed to cost reduce
discrete and CHIPS’CS8230 based 82385 Cache 386/AT designs, as well as
boost the performance of these designs to 33 MHz, with >64KB Cache.
The 82681 provides system control logic and data bus conversion logic.
The control logic consists of 386 CPU control logic, AT Bus cycle
control, 387 Numeric Processor control logic, synchronous clock divide
logic and control of the local peripheral bus. The data bus conversion
logic consists of various 8, 16, 32 bit conversions for ROM cycles, AT
bus cycles and memory cycles.
The 820382D performs the Memory Management functions for the HiD/AT
chipset. It is designed to optimize cost of high performance 386/AT
systems with 64KB, l28KB or larger Direct Mapped Cache Memory. It also
implements logic to maintain compatibility in the AT environment . It
provides a Page Interleave backend for main DRAM memory, in order to
improve performance during miss cycles. It also has features for
reducing system cost.
It minimizes Cache Memory cost by allowing the use of slow SRAM; by
supporting single EPROM BIOS configurations; putting DRAM on the local
bus and consequently reducing DRAM speeds by 15ns typically; and by
remapping 256K of DRAM between 640K and 1024K to top of main memory.
It provides a very flexible implementation of paging for the main DRAM
memory. For even bank configurations, it provides 2-way or 4-way
interleaving; for odd banks it provides paging. This provides a
flexible approach to increasing the size of the local memory as
software demands increase, without imposing a penalty on performance.
Finally, memory performance is optimized by shadow RAM techniques for
BIOS ROMs; concatenated pages for multiple hank configurations; paging
for odd banks; and variable page size for larger DRAMs.
System Architecture
The HiD/AT chipset is compatible with the 82C206 Integrated
Peripherals Controller. Consequently, with the 82C206, a very high
integration and very high performance 386/AT can be implemented. A
typical motherboard can be designed with less than 20 devices plus
memory.
For larger AT designs, targeted at file-servers and departmental
computers, designs with 8 or more slots can be supported with external
AT bus drivers.
