Intel® 82845 MCH for SDR Datasheet 111
5.2.3 Memory Address Translation and Decoding
The 845 MCH contains address decoders that translate the address received on the system bus or
the hub interface. Decoding and translation of these addresses vary with the four SDRAM types.
Also, the number of pages, page sizes, and densities supported vary with the type. In general, the
MCH supports 64 Mb, 128 Mb, 256 Mb, and 512 Mb SDRAM devices. The multiplexed
row/column address to the SDRAM memory array is provided by the SBS[1:0] and SMA[12:0]
signals. These addresses are derived from the system address bus as defined by Table 14 for
SDRAM devices.
