2PCM-586 Technical Reference
2.1 Introduction
Thissection of the manual is intendedto providesufficient information regarding the
configuration and usage of the PCM-586 board. WinSystems maintains a Technical
SupportGrouptohelpanswerquestionsregardingconfiguration,usage,orprogramming
of the board. For answers to questions not adequately addressed in this manual, contact
Technical Support at [phone] between 8AM and 5PM Central Time.
2.2 ACC MICRO 2089 Chipset
The PCM-586 utilizes the ACC Micro 2089 Chipset which provides a highly
integrated, high-performance backbone for full PC/AT compatibility. The 2089 contains
the logic for DRAM, CPU and Bus State control as well as the standard complement of
‘AT’ class peripherals internally, including :
8 DMA Channels compatible with PC-AT Controllers
15 Interrupt inputs compatible with master/slaved 8259 interrupt controllers
Three 8254 compatible timer/counter channels
Two 8250 compatible UARTS
EPP/ECP LPT Port
765B compatible Floppy Disk Controller
PC-AT compatible real time clock/calendar with CMOS
The functional units are 100% PC-AT compatible and are supported by the Award
BIOSandSetup. Users desiringtoaccesstheseinternal peripherals directlyshouldrefe r
to any manufacturer’s generic literature on the equivalent discrete component.
Thereareanumberofinternalregisterswithinthe2089Chipsetsectionthatareused
by the BIOS for control and configuration. Refer to the I/O Map in Appendix A for port
usage to avoid conflicts when adding external I/O devices.

2.3 Real Time Clock Calendar
The PCM-586 contains an onboard Clock/Calendar from Dallas Semi Conductor. The
DS12885S is fully compatible with the MC146818A used in the original PC-AT
computers. This clock has a number of features including periodic and alarm interrupt
capabilities. In addition to the Time and Date keeping functions, the system
configuration is kept in CMOS RAM contained within the clock section. This RAM holds
allofthe setup informationregarding hardandfloppydisktypes,videotype,shadowing,
wait states, etc. Refer to the section on the Award BIOS Setup for complete information
on what is configured via the CMOS RAM.
It may become necessary at some time to make the CMOS RAM forget its current
configuration and to start fresh with factory defaults. This may be accomplished by
removing powerandtheboardfromthesystem.ThenremovethejumperfromJ6pins1-2
and place on pins 2-3. Then short all 3 pins of J7 together for 2 seconds. Replace the
jumper at J6 to its original position, reinstall the board, power up, and reconfigure the
setup as desired.
NOTE :J6mustalwaysbe reinstalled. The systemwillnotfunction correctly without
this jumper installed. If no battery is installed, jumper J6 pins 2-3.
2.4 Keyboard Interface
The PCM-586 contains an onboard PC-AT style keyboard controller. Connection is
made through the Multi-I/O connector at J4. An adapter cable, P/N CBL-162-1, is
available from WinSystems to make ready access to all of the devices terminated at the
Multi-I/O connector. Users desiring custom connections should refer to the Multi-I/O
connector pin definitions given later in this manual.
