The Chip Set

The support chips that make the
microprocessor a microcomputer.

Applications Specific Integrated Circuits
(ASICs) that provide the signals,
controllers, interfaces and buffers that the
system needs to operate.
31
Chipset
32
Main functions of the Chipset

A System Controller handles timing,
interrupt and DMA control, and power
management.

A Memory Controller provides
interconnection and control of memory
systems.

A Peripheral Controller connects the MPU
to internal and external devices such as disk
drives, buses, and peripherals.

Controller
36
Keyboard Controller

Communicates with the microprocessor in
the keyboard.

Performs a parity check.

Converts serial data from the keyboard into
the parallel data needed by the computer.

Generates an interrupt to alert the system
that a key has been depressed.
