The Motorola 68000 CPU was available in 1982 (and a fine processor it was at the time). Aren't these units vintage 2000?
Bill Hawkins -----Original Message----- From: Doug Ronald Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2014 2:03 PM 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. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
