Motorola 68012

The Motorola MC68012 processor is a 16/32-bit microprocessor from the early 1980s. It is an 84-pin PGA version of the Motorola MC68010. The memory space was extended to 2GB (causing the same issue as the 68020 for any programs using the high byte of an address except those only using the high bit) and an RMC pin was added, in order to help the design of multiprocessor systems with virtual memory. All other features of the MC68010 were preserved.

    Motorola 68008

    The Motorola 68008 is an 8/16/32-bit microprocessor made by Motorola. It is a version of the Motorola 68000 with an 8-bit external data bus, as well as a smaller address bus. The original 68000 had a 24-bit address bus and a 16-bit data bus. These relatively large buses made it hard to design a low...

  • Freescale 68EC040

    The 68EC040 is a version of the Motorola 68040 microprocessor intended for embedded controllers. It differs from the 68040 in that it has no FPU or MMU. This makes it less expensive and draw less power. Note: In keeping with general Motorola naming, this CPU is often referred to as the EC40.
