Figure 1 PCI-EISA System Diagram

System partitioning shown in Figure 1 illustrates how the PCI can be used as a common interface between
different portions of a system platform that are typically supplied by the chip set vendor These portions are the
Host PCI Bridge (including a main memory DRAM controller and an optional secondary cache controller) and
the PCI-EISA Bridge Thus the PCI allows a system I O core design to be decoupled from the processor
