I need information on the Texas Instruments 8847 floating point
arithmetic chip.  It apparently can handle IEEE format numbers and
has a multiplier and an adder.  I don't know if it is a TMSxxx or a
SNxxx part.  The people at TI's DSP hotline hadn't heard of it.

I would like architecture, instruction set, power, package type &
number of pins, etc.  A phone number or mailing address of someone
at TI would be good. 

Please email or post any replies.
