Based on a newer, slightly more flexible, version of the Asters original Motorola MC6845 video chip, the Rockwell 6545, it worked by adding a new video mode, one with the ability to reprogram an extended, ( 2048 characters instead of 256 characters ) version of the character set, supported by an extended character memory of the video card that did not use one ( 8 bit ) byte per character, but an 11 bit " word ", so it could address each one of the available 2048 unique programmable characters.

Examples of CISC instruction set architectures are System / 360 through z / Architecture, PDP-11, VAX, Motorola 68k, and x86.

The 16-bit PDP-11 instruction set has been very influential, with processors ranging from the Motorola 68000 to the Renesas H8 and Texas Instruments MSP430, inspired by its highly orthogonal, general-register oriented instruction set and rich addressing modes.

Some instruction set designers reserve one or more opcodes for some kind of system call or software interrupt For example, MOS Technology 6502 uses 00 < sub > H </ sub >, Zilog Z80 uses the eight codes C7, CF, D7, DF, E7, EF, F7, FF < sub > H </ sub > while Motorola 68000 use codes in the range A000 .. AFFF < sub > H </ sub >.

* most processors ( including those of the Intel / AMD x86-32 / x86-64 family, the Motorola 68000 family, the AIM PowerPC family, the ARM family, and the Sun SPARC family ) set the signaled / quiet bit to non-zero if the NaN is quiet, and to zero if the NaN is signaling.

One notable exception was Apple Inc., the Macintosh set of computers of which used non-Intel processors from its inception ; first the Motorola 68000 family, then the PowerPC architecture until 2006, when Apple adopted the Intel x86 architecture.

A.

While AltiVec refers to an instruction set, the implementations in CPUs produced by IBM and Motorola are separate in terms of logic design.

Serial communications was through a memory-mapped Motorola MC6850 Asynchronous Communications Interface Adapter ( ACIA ); a jumper on the mother board allowed the MC6850 to be set for either 300 and 1200 baud or 600 and 2400 baud communications, but other bit rates were not available.

The DOCSIS standard included functional elements from the LANcity provisioning process ( DHCP / TFTP / TOD ), the Motorola 64 QAM set top boxes with Broadcom chipsets, and the Motorola Proprietary cable modem system ( elements of the upstream MAC / PHY layer ).

Rational provided code generators and the cross-debuggers for then-popular instruction set architectures such as the VAX, Motorola 68000, and x86 ; much of this was accomplished through a partnership with Tartan Labs, founded by Bill Wulf to commercialize his work on optimizing code generators semi-automatically produced from architecture descriptions ( PQCC ).

The FX series consisted of a number Computational Elements, or CEs, which included a set of Weitek 1064 / 1065 FPU's and several custom designed support chips to implement a vector processor based upon the popular Motorola 68000 architecture.

At the end of 2001, Nokia, Motorola, and Ericsson formed the Wireless Village ( WV ) initiative to define a set of universal specifications for mobile Instant Messaging and Presence Services ( IMPS ) and presence services for wireless networks.

The first mainstream microprocessors to use some form of instruction prefetch were the Intel 8086 ( six bytes ) and the Motorola 68000 ( four bytes ).

, six manufacturers have multi-stream CableCARDs ( M-CARDS ) qualified by CableLabs: Motorola, Cisco ( formerly Scientific Atlanta ), NDS Group, Conax USA, Inc., Evolution Broadband., and Nagravision ( Kudelski Group ).

Based on the Motorola 68000 family of microprocessors, the machine sports a custom chipset with graphics and sound capabilities that were unprecedented for the price, and a pre-emptive multitasking operating system called AmigaOS.

The " ST " officially stands for " Sixteen / Thirty-two ", which referred to the Motorola 68000's 16-bit external bus and 32-bit internals.

The Atari ST was part of the 16 / 32 bit generation of home computers, based on the Motorola 68000 CPU noted for 128 kB of RAM or more, a graphical user interface, and 3½ " microfloppy disks as storage.

* 1973 – Martin Cooper of Motorola made the first handheld mobile phone call to Joel S. Engel of Bell Labs, though it took ten years for the DynaTAC 8000X to become the first such phone to be commercially released.

Company founders Paul V. Galvin and Joseph Galvin created the brand name Motorola for the car radio-linking " motor " ( for motorcar ) with " ola " ( which implied sound ).

Motorola had intended the EC variant for embedded use, but embedded processors during the 68040's time did not need the power of the 68040, so EC variants of the 68020 and 68030 continued to be common in designs.

In the early 1990s Motorola produced an evaluation board kit for the 68HC11 with several UARTs, RAM, and an EPROM.

However, the original design group appeared to be even less interested in working for Jack Tramiel than it had for Motorola, and the team quickly started breaking up.
