This document provides specifications for a new product developed by Motorola and IBM. The product is the PowerPC 604e microprocessor, which is part of the PowerPC family of reduced instruction set computing (RISC) microprocessors. The document covers the features, general parameters, electrical and thermal characteristics, and pin assignments of the product.
The Motorola MPC604e is a high-performance, superscalar RISC microprocessor implementing the PowerPC architecture. It features seven independent execution units, including floating-point, branch processing, and integer units, allowing for the parallel execution of up to seven instructions. The processor includes separate 32-Kbyte on-chip caches for instructions and data, as well as separate memory management units for both.
