In the first preferred embodiment of the present invention in the second figure, the memory chips 202, 20 4, 206, and 20 08 are connected to the decoding device 21 〇, and are also carried out through the I SA data cable and the central processing unit. Data transfer. Take β I Os as 1 2 8KB as an example (the actual application can be increased or decreased due to different needs), and store BI0.s in the memory .. chip 20 2 address 9E0 0 0 0 '9FFFFF, so the memory The remaining storage space of the wafer 202 is only 2.M-128KΈ. For the decoding device and device 210, four chip selection signal lines (R0MCS1 # ~ R0MCS4 #) are respectively connected with the above four memory chips '2, 2, 2, q, 4;: ,,', 2 0, and 2 phases. Then, the memory chip that will be accessed by ._squeeze drive. The decoding device 2 10 includes a decoder 2 25, a combination logic device 2 1 5 and a bit address conversion logic device 2 3 0. The decoder 2 2 5 includes five decoding areas (D1, D2, D3, D4, and DB) for decoding the ISA address to know which decoding area the I A A address corresponds to. The corresponding results MB #, Ml #, and M2 # generated by the decoding areas DB, D1, and D2 of the decoder 2 2 5 will be sent to the combinational logic device 2 1 5 for further comparison, and the decoding area D3. D4 corresponds to D4. As a result, the signal lines R 0 MCS 3 # and R 〇MCS 4 # are directly fed into the memory through the chip selection signal lines R 0 MCS 3 # and R 0 MCS 4 #, respectively. In addition, in addition to the corresponding input results MB #, Ml #, and M2 #, the combinational logic device 215 is also controlled by the basic given input crystals, “irmTOSCS #”, which is used to produce peak total soil and Yuxin lose R0MCS1 # and R0MCS2 #, and feed them into the memory chips 202 and 204, respectively, to determine whether the memory chips 202 and 204 are selected.

Description of the invention (7) Please refer to the fifth chart A, which depicts the output correspondence table MB #, Ml #, M2 # according to the input IS A address and BI 0 SCS #; In addition, in the chart of the fifth: A chart, 'RoMCSl #, ROMCS2 #' is also listed in accordance with the logical level of the corresponding results. When the I SA address points to 80,000 ~ 9 swellings stored in the memory chip 202?系统 's system data area, and] ^ 1〇 $ (: When ^ is 1', the corresponding one will be 'Decoding area D1 and M1 # will be 0, and both μb # and .M2 # will be 1; this When R0MCS1 # and R0MCS2 # will be 0 and 1, respectively, so that the memory chip 2 0 2 can be driven to read out the system data only. When the I $ a address falls in the range of = AOOOOO-BDFFFF, and BI0SCS When # is 1, because at this time, the stored year is the D2 area that does not overlap with the decoding area DB, so M2 # will be reduced to 0, and MB # and Ml # will be 1 '. At the same time, RMCS1 # will be 1. And R0MCS2 # is 0, which is used to start the memory chip 2 0 4 to read the system data. When the ISA address falls within the range of 9E 0 0 0 0 ~ 9FFFFF, and BI0SCS # is 1, because the access at this time Is the D 2 area that overlaps with the decoding area DB, but because it corresponds to both the decoding area DB and D2 ′, 〇 # and M2 # will be reduced to 0 at the same time, and M1 # will be 1, while R0MCS1 # will be 1, and R0MCS2 # is 0, which is used to start the memory chip 2 04 to continue the system data. Furthermore, 'When is a bit-address is corresponding to the decoding area, and when B I 0SCS # is 0', it means B I 〇S data Will be accessed, but so send L to decode 225's ISA address has only 20 address lines (the other 4 highest address f lines are all Bit 0), so the decoder 225 can't actually solve any results, so MB #, Ml #, M2 # are all Is 1. However, because BI0SCS # is 0, ROMCS1 # is also 0 'to drive the memory chip 202 to read the BIOS data. Finally, when the ISA address corresponds to the decoding area D3 or D4, and

Description of the invention (8) BTOSCS # is! When deleting, M1 #, M2 #, _⑶ #, and cs2 # are all because the memory chips 202, 204, 206, and 2008 each contain 2MB addresses, so only 21 address lines can be used to point to all Address. Therefore, the address conversion logic 'devices 2,30 only need to output 21 address lines when receiving the ISA address. However, because there are only 20 BIOS addresses, from 21 to 24 bits, they are all 0. If the BIOS address is transferred to the memory crystal 002 according to this, it will always only be sent to addresses below 1 MB. In this embodiment, Bi0s is placed at an address of 1 MB to 2 MB in the memory chip 202. Therefore, in the first preferred embodiment, the address conversion logic device 230 will set the BIOSCS # to 0 when BI0SCS # is 0. The value of the 21st bit of the entered ISA address is converted from 0 to 1 (but if β 丨 〇s is placed in the 0MB -1 MB address in the memory chip 202, it is not necessary to convert) Point to B 丨 〇s data storage. Moreover, when BI0SCS # is 1, the address conversion logic device 230 will judge whether the access address needs to be added to 20000h (丨 2 8 KB) according to the IS A address to point to the system. . Data storage. For example, when the ISA address corresponds to the decoding area D 丨, the bit-rack conversion logic device 230 sends the 21-bit I s A address (remove the leftmost 3 bits) to the memory chip 202; When the ISA address is included in the decoding areas D2, D3, and D4, the address conversion logic device 230 adds a 2 0000 address to the 21-bit ISA address (200K of BIOS capacity) to generate After accessing the address, it is sent to the memory chip to access the system data.
^10291 五、發明說明(9) 事實上,:B 10 S在記憶體晶片由私Μ + 月中所儲存之位址,可視實際的 規劃而定。例如在第三圖中你沐彳 ' w γ位於1 MB以下之區域C,係用以 代表該1MB區間中之OEOOOO〜〇FFFFF位址;而位於2Μβ以下 之區域D ’則代表1MB〜2MB區域間21E〇〇〇〇〜1FFFFF實體位 址。在第二圖之第一個較佳實施例+,區域D為儲存m〇s 之區域,其用M28KB來儲存。由於在第二圖帽〇s所佔 用的為區域D ’因此區域D以外所儲存的便用來儲存資料系 統,然而系統資料在存取時不可產生資料不連續之情形 (例如存取軟體程式之程式碼)’所以必須利用位置轉換邏. 輯裝置230與組合邏輯裝置215來除去此一問題。再者,上^ 述之實施例雖以四個2MB的快閃記憶體做解說,妷而在實 用上卻可以其他容量的.快閃記憶體,例如運用兩個4Μβ的 快閃記憶體之記憶體晶片來實施本發明所揭露之内容,然 而位址轉換邏輯裝置230便需根據B I〇s所在的位址來轉換 ISA位址第22位元與第21位元(諸如0〇a〇MB—1Μβ、 ' 01alMB-2MB、10a2MB-3MB、lla3MB-4MB),來指向BI0S 所 本.¼本_邊明所揭露之技術內容 在的位址。明顯的,習知技術者可運用更多的高容量之快 閃記憶體,:晶片 — '、 謹再列舉一實例做進一步之解說。當欲存取由位址9E0 000 所指之系統資料時,因為9E0 0 0 0〜9FFFFF間所儲存的為 BIOS ’所以指向9E0 000的系統資料,事實上係儲存於記憶 體晶片303的第一個儲存格中。然而儲存於9E〇〇〇〇位址的 BIOS資料亦利用位址9EOOOO來指出,於是便發生位於^ 10291 V. Description of the invention (9) In fact, the address of B 10 S stored in the memory chip from the private M + month may depend on the actual planning. For example, in the third picture, you can see that the region C below 1 MB is used to represent the addresses OOOOOO ~ FFFFFF in the 1MB interval, and the region D 'below 2Mβ represents the 1MB to 2MB area. 21E〇〇〇〇〇 ~ 1FFFFF entity address. In the first preferred embodiment of the second figure +, the area D is an area for storing m0s, which is stored using M28KB. Because the area in the second figure is occupied by area D ', the data stored outside area D is used to store the data system. However, the system data cannot be discontinuous when it is accessed (for example, when accessing software programs). (Code) 'So it is necessary to use the position conversion logic 230 and the combination logic device 215 to eliminate this problem. Furthermore, although the above-mentioned embodiment is explained using four 2MB flash memories, it is practically available in other capacities. Flash memory, for example, uses two 4Mβ flash memories. To implement the content disclosed in the present invention by the chip, however, the address conversion logic device 230 needs to convert the 22nd and 21st bits of the ISA address (such as 0〇a〇MB— 1Mβ, '01alMB-2MB, 10a2MB-3MB, 11a3MB-4MB), to point to the location of the technical content disclosed by BIOS. Obviously, those skilled in the art can use more high-capacity flash memory: chip-', I would like to enumerate an example for further explanation. When you want to access the system data pointed to by the address 9E0 000, the system data pointed to 9E0 000 is actually stored in the first memory chip 303 because the BIOS is stored between 9E0 0 0 0-9FFFFF. Cells. However, the BIOS data stored at the 9E000 address is also pointed out using the 9E000OO address, so it occurs at

Description of the invention (10) The ISA address between 9EOOOO ~ 9FFFFF will point to the BIOS and system data at the same time. In the second picture, the above problem can be eliminated after the B10SCS # signal is used. Because when the ISA address 9EOOOO-9FFFFF and BI0SCS # are 0, it is used to indicate that the accessed data will be BIOS, so the address translation logic device 230 is also driven by BI0SCS # which is 0 at this time. In order to convert the 21st bit of the biqs address to generate an access address of 1E0000-1 FFFFF, it is sent to the area D of the memory chip 202 to read out the BIOS data. Therefore, system data with the same ISA address as 9E0 0.0 0-9FFFFF will not be read out, that is, system data stored in the first cell of the memory chip 204. On the other hand, when the ISA address 9E00 00-9FFFFF is used to read out the system data, the address conversion logic device 23 at this time adds the ISA address 9EOOOO plus 20000h shift (the large i128KB of the BIOS ) a, ρ form the address of A00 0 0 0, and then take 21 bits' to form ⑽⑽ = access address to point to the first cell of memory crystal 20 4, and then read out Stored system data too. In addition, the example depicted in Figure 3 may vary depending on the actual cheek condition. For example, if the BIOS is stored in section C, but the entire memory is left, you can take a few changes. Please refer to the fourth figure, which depicts the b ^ 5 memory chip 2 0 2 of the present invention, a preferred embodiment, which is the same as the first embodiment, and the second one: the first money also uses DRAM as 0 0 0 0 0 0 ~ 7FFFFF storage place —— Car Father's Best Example.

Statement (11) --- 2 0 4, 2 0 6, 2 0 8. Since the basic input / output system is stored in the 8EOOOO ~ 8FFFFF section of the memory chip 202 (that is, stored in the area C of the fourth ^) *, the decoding device 425 is generated by the decoding area D2 (9EOOOO ~ BDFFFF). The corresponding result can be fed directly to the memory chip 204 via ROMCS2 # without further judgment by the combinational logic device 415. Because the physical addresses before and after 8EOOOO ~ 8FFFFF (respectively 8 liver? Factory and 9 0 0 0 0 0) are all in the memory crystal 2.0. 2 / different from the embodiment shown in the second figure 'However The values shown in the five decoding areas of the decoder 2 2 5 are still ISA addresses.
