***Info:
The Apollo MVP3 is a high performance, cost-effective and energy
efficient chip set for the implementation of AGP / PCI / ISA desktop
and notebook personal computer systems from 66 MHz to 100 MHz based on
64-bit Socket-7 (Intel Pentium and Pentium MMX; AMD K6; Cyrix / IBM 6
x86 / 6x86MX, and IDT / Centaur C6/WinChip) super-scalar processors.
The Apollo-MVP3 chip set consists of the VT82C598MVP system controller
(476 pin BGA) and the VT82C586B PCI to ISA bridge (208 pin PQFP). The
system controller provides superior performance between the CPU,
optional synchronous cache, DRAM, AGP bus, and PCI bus with pipelined,
burst, and concurrent operation. For pipelined burst synchronous
SRAMs, 3-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 timing can be achieved for both read and write
transactions at 100 MHz. Tag timing is specially optimized internally
( less than 4 nsec setup time) to allow implementation of L2 cache
using an external tag for the most flexible cache organization (0K /
256K / 512K / 1M / 2M). Four cache lines (16 quadwords) of CPU/cache
to DRAM write buffers with concurrent write-back capability are
included on chip to speed up cache read and write miss cycles.
The VT82C598MVP supports six banks of DRAMs up to 768MB. The DRAM
controller supports standard Fast Page Mode (FPM) DRAM, EDO-DRAM, and
Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) in a flexible mix / match manner. The
Synchronous DRAM interface allows zero wait state bursting between the
DRAM and the data buffers at 100 MHz. The six banks of DRAM can be
composed of an arbitrary mixture of 1M / 2M / 4M / 8M / 16MxN DRAMs.
The DRAM controller also supports optional ECC (single-bit error
correction and multi-bit detection) or EC (error checking) capability
separately selectable on a bank-by-bank basis. The DRAM Controller
can run at either the host CPU bus frequency (66 / 75 / 83 / 100 MHz)
or at the AGP bus frequency (66 MHz) with built-in deskew DLL timing
control. The VT82C598MVP allows implementation of the most flexible,
reliable, and high-performance DRAM interface.
The VT82C598MVP also supports AGP v2.0 compatibility for maximum bus
utilization including 2x mode transfers, SBA (SideBand Addressing),
Flush/Fence commands, and pipelined grants. An eight level request
queue plus a four level post-write request queue with thirty-two and
sixteen quadwords of read and write data FIFO's respectively are
included for deep pipelined and split AGP transactions. A
single-level GART TLB with 16 full associative entries and flexible
CPU/AGP/PCI remapping control is also provided for operation under
protected mode operating environments. Both Windows-95 VXD and
Windows-98 / NT5 miniport drivers are supported for interoperability
with major AGP-based 3D and DVD-capable multimedia accelerators.
The VT82C598MVP supports two 32-bit 3.3 / 5V system buses (one AGP and
one PCI) that are synchronous / pseudo-synchronous to the CPU bus.
The chip also contains a built-in bus-to-bus bridge to allow
simultaneous concurrent operations on each bus. Five levels
(doublewords) of post write buffers are included to allow for
concurrent CPU and PCI operation. For PCI master operation,
forty-eight levels (doublewords) of post write buffers and sixteen
levels (doublewords) of prefetch buffers are included for concurrent
PCI bus and DRAM/cache accesses. The chip also supports enhanced PCI
bus commands such as Memory-Read-Line, Memory-Read-Multiple and
Memory-Write-Invalid commands to minimize snoop overhead. In
addition, advanced features are supported such as snoop ahead, snoop
filtering, L1 write-back forward to PCI master, and L1 write-back
merged with PCI post write buffers to minimize PCI master read latency
and DRAM utilization. Delay transaction and read caching mechanisms
are also implemented for further improvement of overall system
performance.
The VT82C586B PCI to ISA bridge supports four levels (doublewords) of
line buffers, type F DMA transfers and delay transaction to allow
efficient PCI bus utilization and (PCI-2.1 compliant). The VT82C586B
also includes an integrated keyboard controller with PS2 mouse
support, integrated DS12885 style real time clock with extended 256
byte CMOS RAM, integrated master mode enhanced IDE controller with
full scatter and gather capability and extension to UltraDMA-33 /
ATA-33 for 33MB/sec transfer rate, integrated USB interface with root
hub and two function ports with built-in physical layer transceivers,
Distributed DMA support, and OnNow / ACPI compliant advanced
configuration and power management interface. Using the low-cost
208-pin PQFP-packaged VT82C586B south bridge chip, a complete main
board can be implemented with only four TTLs.
For sophisticated notebook implementations, the VT82C598MVP provides
independent clock stop control for the CPU / SDRAM, PCI, and AGP buses
and Dynamic CKE control for powering down of the SDRAM. A separate
suspend-well plane is implemented for the SDRAM control signals for
Suspend-to-DRAM operation. Coupled with the 324-pin Ball Grid Array
VT82C596 "Mobile South" chip, a complete notebook PC main board can be
implemented with no external TTLs.
The Apollo MVP3 chipset is ideal for high performance, high quality,
high energy efficient and high integration desktop and notebook AGP /
PCI / ISA computer systems.
