CHAPTER 1:  INTRODUCTION

 

The 486MIS system board adds to our 486 product line high integration
and   cost   effective   solution   without   compromising   performance   and
quality.  With top speed at 50MHz and integrated 64K/128K/256K Write-
Back cache, the 486MIS dramatically boosts system throughput for even
the   most   demanding   applications.     The   486MIS   offers   features   and
functionality exceeding any other system board in its class, including:

CPU:

·

Intel i486DX, i486DX2, i486SX, i487SX, P24T, and Overdrives.

Cache Memory:

·

Supports 64K/128K/256K/512K cache memory.

Main Memory:

·

Supports 512Kx36, 1Mx36, 2Mx36, 4Mx36, and 8Mx36 72-pin SIMM
modules.

·

Up to 64 MBytes on-board memory.

Slots:

·

Two 32-bit VESA Local Bus (VL-Bus) slots.

·

Six 16-bit ISA bus slots.

On-Board Battery:

·

Use   Dallas   compatible   DS1287   Real-Time-Clock   and   Battery   with
over 10 years of operation in the absence of power.

SCSI Port:

·

32-bit   VL-Bus   interface   with   128-byte   data   buffer   to   increase
performance.

·

Compatible with Adaptec 1510/1520/1522 SCSI-2 adapters.
