CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The S4967 Rev:2B.31 486 Cache system board Is 2/3 Baby AT-sized, fully PC/AT compatible and offers outstanding performance and features.
With 128K/256K/512K/1M cache memory on board, this system board Is really a high speed machine that is well suited for building advanced personal computers or workstat- lons.
The $4967 Rev:2B.31 486 Cache system board is designed with the SIS 85C496/85C497 chipset which are highly integrated. With this chipset, there are only a few discrete
devices required, which allows 4 memory banks to be placed on the board. The size of the memory can be scaled from 1 MB up to 255 MB.

FEATURES

The $4967 Rev:2B.31 486 Cache system board supports (or includes) the following features:
* Support
Intel 486SX/SX2/DX/DX2,DX4(3.45V),P24D,P24T AMD DX,DX2/DX4(NV8T),OX2/DX4(SVEB) Cyrix SX/DX/DX2,DX2-V66/VB0(3.45V),DX4(3.45V), 15×86 (3.45V) in 25/33/40/SOMHZ

• Designed with SIS 85C496/85C497 Chipsets
• Support 128K/256K/512K/1M 2nd Level Cache
• Support 4 DRAM Banks. The DRAM can be bul with elther Single-Sided or Double- Sided SIMMs. The maximum memory Is up to 255MB
• Software-controlied shadow RAM for system and/or video BIOS
• Three 32-bit PCI local bus slots, four 16-bk expansion slots

CHAPTER 3 HARDWARE CONFIGURATION

Before the system Is ready to operate, the hardware must be configured to allow for various functions within the system. To configure the $4967 Rev:2B.31 Cache system
board is a simple task, only a few Jumpers, connectors, and sockets needs to be selected.
CACIIE MEMORY SOCKETS
The $4967 Rev:2B.31 Cache system board supports 2 banks of SRAM which provides either 126/256K/512K/1MB of cache memory. The following table lists the detailed
information.

The corresponding bank to part identification are as follows:
Bank 0 – U9, U11, U19, U24
Bank 1 – U10, U14, U20, U2
Tag =~ U8 –

SHADOW CACHEABLE
UMB (Upper Memory Block) which Is not main memory area Is by default non- cacheable. However, once shadowed, the RAM segments 0C0000-OFFFFFh can be further cached in Level 2 and Level 1 cache. Each 32K memory segments can be Individually enabled to be cacheable by both 85C495’s secondary level cache and CPU’s internal cache.SIMM SOCKETS
je $4967 Rev:2B.31 Cache system board will support 4 DRAM banks, Bank 0 and Bank 1 k 2 and Bank 3 in SIMM sockets use 72-pin SIMM : DRAM type can be 256K, 512K, , 2M, 4M, or 16M by 32/36 bits Single side or Double side Fast Page Mode and faster in BONs.
the use of 256K, 512K, 1M, 2M, 4M or 16M DRAM modules, 1M and upto 255 M of memory can be attained. The installation of DRAM SIMMs Is “Table-free”, which
the SIMMs be installed into any siot location and any combinations.
