***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.

***Info:
GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The W83977EF  is an evolving  product from Winbond's most  popular I/O
chip W83877F --- which integrates  the disk drive adapter, serial port
(UART),  IrDA  1.0  SIR,  parallel port,  configurable  plugand-  play
registers for  the whole chip  --- plus additional  powerful features:
ACPI,  8042 keyboard controller  with PS/2  mouse support,  14 general
purpose  I/O  ports,  full  16-bit address  decoding,  OnNow  keyboard
Wake-Up, OnNow mouse Wake-Up.

The disk  drive adapter  functions of W83977EF  include a  floppy disk
drive  controller compatible  with the  industry standard  82077/ 765,
data  separator, write  pre-compensation circuit,  decode  logic, data
rate selection,  clock generator,  drive interface control  logic, and
interrupt and DMA  logic. The wide range of  functions integrated onto
the  W83977EF greatly reduces  the number  of components  required for
interfacing with floppy disk  drives. The W83977EF supports four 360K,
720K, 1.2M, 1.44M, or 2.88M disk drives and data transfer rates of 250
Kb/s, 300 Kb/s, 500 Kb/s,1 Mb/s, and 2 Mb/s.

The  W83977EF  provides  two  high-speed  serial  communication  ports
(UARTs),  one of  which supports  serial Infrared  communication. Each
UART includes  a 16-byte send/receive  FIFO, a programmable  baud rate
generator,  complete   modem  control  capability,   and  a  processor
interrupt system. Both UARTs provide legacy speed with baud rate up to
115.2k bps and  also advanced speed with baud rates  of 230k, 460k, or
921k bps which support higher speed modems.

The   W83977EF  supports   one  PC-compatible   printer   port  (SPP),
Bi-directional  Printer port  (BPP)  and also  Enhanced Parallel  Port
(EPP) and  Extended Capabilities Port (ECP). Through  the printer port
interface pins,  also available are: Extension FDD  Mode and Extension
2FDD  Mode allowing  one  or two  external  floppy disk  drives to  be
connected.

The   configuration  registers   support   mode  selection,   function
enable/disable, and  power down function  selection.  Furthermore, the
configurable  PnP  features  are  compatible  with  the  plug-and-play
feature demand  of Windows 95, which makes  system resource allocation
more efficient than ever.

W83977EF  provides   functions  that  complies   with  ACPI  (Advanced
Configuration and  Power Interface), which includes  support of legacy
and ACPI power  management through SMI or SCI  function pins. W83977EF
also  has auto  power  management to  reduce  power consumption.   The
keyboard controller is based on 8042 compatible instruction set with a
2K  Byte programmable  ROM  and  a 256-Byte  RAM  bank. Keyboard  BIOS
firmware are available with optional AMIKEY-2, Phoenix MultiKey/42, or
customer code.

The W83977EF provides  a set of flexible I/O  control functions to the
system designer through a set of General Purpose I/O ports. These GPIO
ports may  serve as  simple I/O or  may be individually  configured to
provide a predefined alternate function.

The W83977EF  also supports Power-loss  control, and makes  the system
never miss to detect any Wake-Up event provided by the chipset such as
INTEL PIIX4.

I/O  space   resource  are  flexible   to  adjust  to  meet   ISA  PnP
requirement. Moreover  W83977EF is made  to meet the  specification of
PC98's requirement in the power management: ACPI and DPM (Device Power
Management).

Another  benifit is that  W83977EF is  of the  same pin  assignment of
W83977AF,  W83977F, W83977TF,  W83977ATF. Thus  makes the  design very
flexible.
