Not only available for some time now, but being used by a number
of customers, both with the AT&T WE 32100 CPU and with 68020's.
Soon to be available at 20+ MHz to complement our WE 32200.
A few more neat features:
- Hook two 32103s up to a single DRAM bank and implement a
"cheap-and-dirty" dual-port RAM.
- If your system generates dual and quad word READs (get two or four
words back for each address generated), the 32103 will support.
- Programmable refresh and access times, you can plug in faster
DRAMs and decrease memory access time under software control.
Datasheets are available by calling (800) 372-2447
