Chip, also known as microcircuit, microchip, integrated circuit (IC). It refers to the silicon chip containing integrated circuits, which is very small and often part of computers or other electronic equipment.
In addition to the most common north south bridge structure, chipsets are developing towards a more advanced accelerated hub architecture. Intel's 8xx series chipsets are representatives of this kind of chipsets, which directly connect some subsystems such as IDE interface, sound effect, modem and USB to the main chip, and can provide a bandwidth twice the total line width of PCI, reaching 266mb/s; In addition, sis635/sis735 of silicon technology is also a new force of this kind of chipset. In addition to supporting the latest ddr266, ddr200, PC133 SDRAM and other specifications, it also supports quadruple speed AGP display card interface, fast write function, IDE ata33/66/100, and has built-in 3D stereo sound effect, high-speed data transmission function, including 56K data communication (modem), high-speed Ethernet transmission (Fast Ethernet), 1m/10m home network (home PNA), etc.
