With full 32-bit internal architecture and a 16-bit external bus, the i960® SA/SB processors offer a cost-effective solution for designers of embedded applications. Although at the entry-level of the i960® architecture family, these processors are ideal for demanding applications such as entry-level page printers, I/O controllers, games and communications products. The integrated burst control reduces bus bottlenecks, and the powerful 32-bit CPU increases throughput. The high level of integration minimizes chip count to lower overall system costs. |
|
|
The i960® KA/KB processors were introduced over 12 years ago as the first members of the i960 32-bit microprocessor family. They are based on the family's high performance, common core architecture and are capable of execution rates in excess of 9.4 MIPS (Millions of Instructions Per Second). The i960 KA/KB processors are well-suited for embedded applications such as page printers, image processing, industrial control, robotics, and telecommunications products. |
|
|
The Intel® 80960MC, a member of the Intel i960® 32-bit processor family, is ideally suited for embedded applications. It includes a 512-byte instruction cache and a built-in interrupt controller. The 80960MC has a large resister set, multiple parallel execution units and a high-bandwidth burst bus. Using advanced RISC technology, this processor is capable of execution rates in excess of 9.4 million instructions per second. The 80960MC is well suited for a wide range of applications including non-impact printers, I/O control and specialty instrumentation. |
|
|
The i960® Kx and Sx series and the i960® MC processor are code-compatible with the entire i960 architecture family of microprocessors, enabling an easy growth path in performance while protecting software investment. |
