The SAB 82258A is an advanced general-purpose fourchannel DMA controller tailored for efficient high speed data transfer between peripheral devices and memories. It is either coupled tightly with a companion CPU (local mode) or working in stand alone applications using the remote mode. The SAB 82258A is unique among DMA controllers providing complete direct interfacing to the SAB 80286 as well as to SAB 80186/188/86/88 bus.
