Thanks! |> |> -- |> Rich Gopstein |> |> gopstein@bms.com |> rutgers!bms.com!gopstein About two years ago Motorola was marketing a 68332 EVB/EVC/EVM system. It consisted of a small Business Card Computer (BCC) style/size circuit board with the 68332 microcontroller, some ROM and RAM (about 128 KB I think.) The 68332 is a 32-bit microcontroller with a MC68020 core and some peripheral support functions, such as timers and I/O control. I believe the processer runs at or about 16 MHz. At the time Motorola was marketing this to Colleges and Universities the price was in the $200- $300 range. However, the "regular" price was something like double that. A classmate of mine bought one, and if it wasn't for a lack of cash, I would have picked one up also. It looked like a nice little package that had some horsepower in it. Maybe someone from Motorola can confirm whether this board is still available????? Hope this helps.
