**82340SX     Chip Set (VLSI) (82343/82344)                   01/25/89
***Notes:
date source: TimelineDateSort7_05.pdf 


This is the VLSI Topcat Chipset

InfoWorld 8 Jan 1990 p3 - Intel to Market VLSI Topcat Chips 
"...With  the 82340SX  chip  set, 16-bit  386SX-based  systems can  be
designed with tow logical components in addition to the microprocessor
plus  memory.  the  three-component  82340DX chip  set  for the  Intel
386DX-based systems works  with CPUs operating from 16  to 33 MHz. The
total chip  count for a  complete 386-based AT compatible  is possible
utilizing  fewer than  six  components, Intel  said.   Samples of  the
82340SX  and  82340DX will  be  available  in  March, with  production
quantities expected in the second quarter."
