Compupro (a division of Godbout, so these are in fact the same company) does make (is making?) a 16032 board for IEEE-696/S-100 bus. From a recent copy of Compupro's catalog, here are some specs on the CPU 16032 board: - Full 32 bit internal archetecture. - 24 bit addressing accesses 16 Megabytes of memory. - 16 Megabytes of non-segmented address space. - Power-On-Jump capability using the On-Board ROM. - Socket for optional NS16082 Memory Management Unit (MMU). - Supports virtual memory and page protection. - Socket for optional NS16081 Floating Point Unit (FPU). - FPU can handle 32 bit and 64 bit floating point numbers. - Sockets for up to 32K bytes (16K x 16) of optional ROM. - Byte swap circuitry for operation with 8 or 16 bit memory. - Flexible wait state circuitry for slower peripheral devices. - Complies fully to the IEEE 696/S-100 bus specifications. - 16 bit I/O address capable of addressing 64K I/O devices. - Requires unregulated +8 volt supply only. Timing ....................... Meets all IEEE 696 specifications. Clock Rate ................... Up to 10 MHz. Address Bits ................. 24 bits; addresses 16 Megabytes. Data Bus ..................... 16 bits; also compatible with 8 bit memory and Input/Output devices. Input/Output ................. Memory mapped in 64K bytes at FE000 (hex). Wait States .................. Provisions for up to 7 jumper selectable wait states. Master Status ................ Board is implemented as a permanent master. pRESET*, SLAVECLR* ........... Generated at power-on. MWRITE Generator ............. Provided through a switch option. CLOCK (bus pin 49) ........... 2 MHz square wave. Power-On-Jump ................ Implemented with first few bytes in ROM. Virtual Memory ............... Optional with the NS16082 MMU. Memory Protection ............ Optional with the NS16082 MMU. Math Functions ............... Optional with the NS16081 FPU. Sockets ...................... Provided for all IC's. P.C. Board ................... High Quality double-sided epoxy, solder masked both sides, component legend, plated through holes, gold plated edge connector fingers, standard size (5 x 10 inches). The bad news is that the board is apparantly still not available. The best I've heard is "sometime this year". Has anybody heard more on this? Also, a company called Inner Vision advertised a 16032 CPU board for the S-100 bus with a Z80 (sigh...) also on the same board. I don't have that ad with me now, though. If anybody is interested, I could dig it up and at least give you their address and/or phone number. Anybody know of any other IEEE 696/S-100 16032 CPU boards?
