-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cirrus Logic, Inc.
Low-to-mid-end DRAM-based cards (accelerated), some laptop chipsets.
Known for integrating graphic card components into one chip (built-in
RAMDAC and clock generators) at an early point.
CL-GD542x series
ISA and VL-bus chipset with a 32-bit DRAM interface, and a
16-bit host bus interface. These were first generation VLB
cards. All chips in this series have at least a limited form of
acceleration: fill, scroll, hardware cursor.
CL-GD5420 Old, no truecolor DAC. ISA.
CL-GD5421 Old, highcolor DAC. ISA.
CL-GD5422 ISA. Has truecolor DAC.
CL-GD5424 VLB support.
CL-GD5425 TV output.
The following chips have a 'BitBLT engine', which implies
better acceleration (opaque move, invert, text).
CL-GD5426 BitBLT chip. ISA, VLB. Max 2Mb.
CL-GD5428 Slightly enhanced version of the 5426.
CL-GD5429 Much faster version, appeared 1st Q 1995.
Memory-mapped I/O and higher memory clock.
Performance was fair for its day, drops off at high
resolutions/refresh, and gains with CPU. DOS performance was
mediocre. Upgrade to 2Mb buys very little (interlaced modes
only).
CL-GD543x/4x series ('Alpine')
64-bit internal acceleration. 64-bit DRAM interface on
5434/6 but only with 2Mb memory. More or less compatible
with 5426/8.
CL-GD54(M)30 'Budget' version. Limited to 32-bit DRAM interface,
even with 2Mb. A bit faster than the 5428.
CL-GD5434 Has 64-bit interface to DRAM with 2Mb memory,
32bpp truecolor support.
CL-GD5434-E Supports higher memory clock (60 MHz).
CL-GD5436 Highly optimized 5434, high memory clock (EDO DRAM
support), packed-24 acceleration.
CL-GD5440 5430 with video support (compressed YUV, zoom,
motion video, "software MPEG").
CL-GD54M40 5440 with integrated filters.
CL-GD5446 Essentially 5436 with video, PowerPC and V-Port
support.
The 543x had OK performance, pretty decent with 64-bit DRAM
access (2MB), although DOS performance was poor in the 5430/40.
The 5446 is an efficient chip with excellent DOS performance
and motion video.
The 5434 was often equipped with only 1Mb, which severely crippled
performance.
CL-G546x "Laguna" series
CL-GD5462 Supports RDRAM (Rambus). Video acceleration.
CL-GD5464 3D accelerator. Creative will be using it.
The CL-GD5480 is a chip announced for early 1997 supporting SGRAM
clocked at 100 MHz, with acceleration based on the "Alpine" BitBLT
engine
Cirrus has also produced a number of laptop/notebook chipsets:
CL-GD6420/40 Chipset that shared some features with the
CL-GD5420, but is not compatible.
CL-GD62x5 More or less compatible with the CL-GD5420.
CL-GD7543 Acceleration similar to the CL-GD5428, has some
video support.
CL-GD7548 32-bit DRAM interface, acceleration similar
to the 5436, with video support
CL-GD7555 64-bit DRAM interface.
Cirrus Logic started integrated graphic components design now used by most
chipset makers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
IIT (AGX)
VRAM-based accelerators, some cheap. Has some similarities
with IBM XGA. Discontinued.
AGX-015
AGX-016 64-bit DRAM

64-bit accelerator which supports up to 8 Meg of WRAM (Window
RAM - dual ported). Supports resolutions up to 1600x1200 at
very high speeds. PCI only. Incorporates hardware color
space conversion and video upscaling, 3D gouraud shading,
texture mapping, double and Z-buffering. Also has a fast
32-bit VGA core.
MGA-1064SG
64-bit accelerator which supports up to 4 Meg of SGRAM. Fast
2D acceleration, hardware colour space conversion and video
scaling for fast video, texture mapping, Gouraud shading,
transparency, double buffering for fast 3D.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
NCR
77C22(E(+)) SVGA, limited acceleration, ISA.
77C32BLT Accelerated, supports VLB. Some neat features.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

OTI-64111 64-bit PCI/ISA 2D chipset. DRAM and EDO supported.
OTI-64217 'Eon' 64-bit PCI chipset supports EDO & SGRAM. Claims
to speed up 3D applications, but I doubt it has
real 3D acceleration.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
Don't know much about this company, but the only product listed
on their web pages is the RTG3105i which is billed as an all-in-one
chip integrating the DAC, BIOS and clock synthesizer. Emphasis is
on low cost and it will support a maximum of 512k. Could be found
a few years ago.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
S3, Inc.
Well-established for high-end PC graphics chipsets. Has moved into
low-to-mid-end market. Generally efficient accelerators. Wide variation
in card designs (RAMDAC, clock generators etc.). Acceleration interface
based on IBM 8514. 8xx chips are DRAM-based, 9xx VRAM-based.
First Generation
S3-911 Original S3 chip, VRAM-based. Very poor DOS
performance.
S3-924 Bug fix of S3-911, can support 24bpp.
Second Generation
S3-801 ISA, 32-bit DRAM interface.
S3-805/805p Local bus version, mostly 16-bit host interface.
2nd half 1994 low-end VLB.
S3-805i Supports interleaved memory access with 2Mb DRAM.
S3-928 Previous generation high-end chipset; 32-bit
interface to VRAM for drawing.
In their day, these were good performers.
64-bit Vision series
S3-864 64-bit DRAM interface with 2Mb memory. 64-bit
acceleration. Variation in RAMDACs.
S3-964 64-bit VRAM interface. High resolution/color
depth.
Trio32 (732) Integrated chip with 32-bit DRAM interface.
Trio64 (764) Integrated version of S3-864 (built-in RAMDAC and
clock generator) not driver-compatible with S3-864.
Trio64V+ Trio64 with slightly faster 2D and video acceleration.
Trio64UV+ Faster Trio64V+ with UMA support.
S3-868 Enhanced 864 with video acceleration features.
S3-968 Enhanced 964 with video acceleration features.
S3-ViRGE Trio64V+ 2D core with 3D acceration including
texture mapping, Gouraud shading, etc. Supports
DRAM/EDO.
S3-ViRGE/VX Support for VRAM/WRAM.
S3-ViRGE/GX SGRAM support.
The early 64-bit DRAM chips had good performance (with 2MB).
The engine got progressively faster with new chips.
The S3-Virge and S3-Trio64UV+ have a revamped graphics engine
more optimized for Windows. The single-cycle EDO DRAM support
provides relatively fast acceleration for DRAM card. In a very
profitable marketing move, one card maker has offered a Virge
based card with expensive single-cycle clocked EDO DRAM with
optimized drivers, getting rave reviews, and so created the
market for its "cheap" EDO DRAM version.
DOS performance was fair on the S3-805, while S3-928 had good
DOS performance for its day. Even with later chips, it's
not optimal in SVGA modes, where UniVBE/SDD or other VESA
drivers can signficantly improve DOS performance.
All the 64-bit chips take a big performance hit with only 1Mb.
There has been variation in memory timing (speed) between
different card models.
Trio32/64 and 868 do not support packed-24 pixels (24 bpp), which
generally implies no 16M color modes on a 1Mb card.
Other products:
Aurora64V+ Trio64V+ core with dual display capability for
use in laptops. Simultaneous display on LCD and
NTSA/PAL TV or CRT monitor.
Scenic/MX2 MPEG decoder supports MPEG-1 audio/video.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

provides cost-effective 64-bit acceleration with video support.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tseng Labs, Inc.
ET4000 well-established non-accelerated chipset. W32 series accelerated.
ET4000/W32i and W32p support smart 32-bit interleaved memory interface
with 2Mb DRAM installed, yielding 85% of the video memory bandwidth of a
64-bit interface.
ET4000AX Old ISA chipset, VLB OK (16-bit host interface,
good response).
W32 series
ET4000/W32 Accelerated, 32-bit host interface. 32-bit memory
interface. Fair performance, comparable to
Cirrus 5426.
ET4000/W32i Improved acceleration, supports interleaved memory
with 2Mb. Very fast blits (efficient memory
arbitration).
ET4000/W32p Improved acceleration, better host bus interface
support (incl. PCI). Special video support.
Several revisions, significant variation.
Revisions before C or D may have crippled/broken
PCI performance.
While the W32 had mediocre performance, a W32i/p with 2MB DRAM
was fairly quick, thanks to efficient BitBLTs. DOS performance
was good except on an earlier revision ET4000/W32p on PCI bus.
ET6000 is Tseng's newest chipset offering even faster VGA performance
than the very respectable ET4000. A summarized version of Tseng's spec.
