Re: LF: 68000 chip



I just felt like making it known, the main CPU chip in the TI-92 is in a
catalog I have.  The catalog is from a company that my school orders
physics and electronics stuff from: Jameco, Inc.  Anyways, the price of
the chip, a Motarola MC68000L10 chip costs $6.95.  And that's for one;
it's cheaper to buy more.


Another thing, I noticed that someone said the 68000 chip is 32 bit. 
That is NOT the case.  If the calculator's chip is 32bit, then it is not
a 68000, it is an MC68020RC20.  Here is the information I have:


From: Jameco Catalog #963


Part#    Product#     Pins     Description  ** Price
25304   MC68000L8     64    MPU 16-bit (8MHz) **$5.39 on sale
25291   MC68000L10    64    MPU 16-bit (10MHz) **$6.95
118287  MC68008P8     48    MPU 8-bit (8MHz) **$7.95
118295  MC68020RC20  114    MPU 32-bit (20MHz) **$29.95


Let's clear up the confusion out there...
