There is many little things it does spread-out over the second, but in
the end, much of the time is spent in the idle-loop, as it should be.
The processor is sufficiently large to handle processing and memory
needs, and a suitable real-time OS can be run on it with debugging
support, that eases on the development, so why make the design harder to do?
Cheers,

I have sort of a dumb question about the Lucent KS-24361 RFTGs. Why do you
suppose there is so much compute power in these units? They have the Xilinx
FPGA, and the 68000 CPU just to discipline a 5 MHz oscillator? There must be
more going on with these devices than meets my eyes.
Thanks anyone,
