***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 5581 and SiS 5582, to
assist board designers for their board layouts.

SiS 5581’s pin assignment is based  on NLX, and LPX form factor, while
SiS 5582’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 5581 or  5582 chipsets, decided by the  placements of form factors
on  PC boards  of customers.   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 and Integrated
Keyboard Controller.

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.

Note:  Dates vary  for when  these  chips were  first available.   Two
databooks have been used one from  '86 the other from '91. Not all the
chips  are  listed  in  the  '86  databook, the  date  of  '87  is  an
assumption.
