GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The W83877TF is an enhanced version from Winbonds most popular I/O chip W83877F --- which
integrates the disk drive adapter, serial port (UART), IrDA 1.0 SIR, parallel port, configurable Plug-and-Play registers for the whole chip --- plus additional powerful features: ACPI / legacy power
management, serial IRQ, and IRQ sharing.
