The Motorola 68000 series of microprocessors was used in all Amiga models from Commodore.

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.

By working with Motorola, AMD was able to refine copper interconnect manufacturing to the production stage about one year before Intel.

It was designed by Motorola in Hong Kong and released in 1995.

FORTH, Inc .' s microFORTH was developed for the Intel 8080, Motorola 6800, and Zilog Z80 microprocessors starting in 1976.

It was also available on some non-IBM compatible machines such as Motorola 68k-based Apollo ( 68020 ) and Amiga 3000 ( 68030 ) workstations, the short-lived AT & T Hobbit and later PowerPC based BeBox.

It was an attempt to draw attention from the less-delayed 16 and 32-bit processors of other manufacturers ( such as Motorola, Zilog, and National Semiconductor ) and at the same time to counter the threat from the Zilog Z80 ( designed by former Intel employees ), which became very successful.

MINIX 1. 5, released in 1991, included support for MicroChannel IBM PS / 2 systems and was also ported to the Motorola 68000 and SPARC architectures, supporting the Atari ST, Commodore Amiga, Apple Macintosh and Sun SPARCstation computer platforms.

Soon every major vendor was releasing a RISC design, including the AT & T CRISP, AMD 29000, Intel i860 and Intel i960, Motorola 88000, DEC Alpha.

The decision to leapfrog the competition and introduce a hybrid 16 / 32-bit design was necessary, and Motorola turned it into a coherent mission.

The Motorola 68EC000 core was later used in the m68k-based DragonBall processors from Motorola / Freescale.

The 6800 was an 8-bit microprocessor designed and first manufactured by Motorola in 1974.

The Motorola EXORciser was a desktop computer built with the M6800 ICs that could be used for prototyping and debugging new designs.

Galvin Manufacturing Corporation was founded in 1928 in Chicago, Illinois and produced their first Motorola brand car radio in 1930.

The company name was changed to Motorola in 1947.

Motorola, Inc. () was an American multinational telecommunications company based in Schaumburg, Illinois.

After having lost $ 4. 3 billion from 2007 to 2009, the company was divided into two independent public companies, Motorola Mobility and Motorola Solutions on January 4, 2011.

Motorola Solutions is generally considered to be the direct successor to Motorola, Inc., as the reorganization was structured with Motorola Mobility being spun off.

The first phone to use the newest version of Google's open source OS, Android 2. 0, was released on November 2, 2009 as the Motorola Droid ( the GSM version launched a month later, in Europe, as the Motorola Milestone ).

The first version of the Aster consisted of four " Eurocard's ", one Z80 CPU card with 64KB memory, one Motorola MC6845 based video card, one double density floppy disk controller card and one " keyboard / RS232 / cassette interface " card.

* 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.

Martin Cooper ( inventor ) | Dr. Martin Cooper of Motorola, made the first private handheld mobile phone call on a larger prototype model in 1973.

The first field is either the Motorola 68000 exception number that occurred ( if a CPU error occurs ) or an internal error identifier ( such as an ' Out of Memory ' code ), in case of a system software error.

* 1996 – The Motorola StarTAC, the first flip phone and one of the first mobile phones to gain widespread consumer adoption, goes on sale.

Motorola started in Chicago, Illinois as Galvin Manufacturing Corporation ( at 847 West Harrison Street ) in 1928, with its first product being a battery eliminator.

In 1930 Galvin Manufacturing Corporation introduced the Motorola radio, one of the first commercially successful car radios.

It also was the first computer to ship with a general-purpose DSP chip ( Motorola 56001 ) on the mother board.

SGI's first generation products, starting with the IRIS 1000 ( Integrated Raster Imaging System ) series of high-performance graphics terminals, were based on the Motorola 68000 family of microprocessors.

The QL was the first mass-market personal computer based on the Motorola 68000-series processor family.

Despite these limitations, several software packages have managed to provide virtualization on the x86 architecture, even though dynamic recompilation of privileged code, as first implemented by VMware, incurs some performance overhead as compared to a VM running on a natively virtualizable architecture such as the IBM System / 370 or Motorola MC68020.

The first version (" OS-9 Level One "), which dates back to 1979 – 80, was written in assembly language for the Motorola 6809 CPU, and provided a single 64 KB address space in which all processes ran.

The system was among the first general-purpose user interfaces to handle publishing color standards, transparency, sophisticated sound and music processing ( through a Motorola 56000 DSP ), advanced graphics primitives, internationalization, and modern typography, in a consistent manner across all applications.

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.

The Motorola 9500 phone is a design from the first commercial phase of Iridium, whereas the 9575 model is the current version of the handset and was released in 2011.

* Motorola 9505 — Large brick shaped handset manufactured from 1999 to 2002 by the first corporate incarnation of Iridium.

* In 1986, Pelephone ( the first cellular company in Israel ) was established by Motorola and Tadiran.

The term " Serial Communications Interface " ( SCI ) was first used at Motorola around 1975 to refer to their start-stop asynchronous serial interface device, which others were calling a UART.

Also that year, Motorola ’ s technologies were used to introduce the first two-way mobile radio with a fully transistorized power supply and receiver for cars.

The S $ 134. 6 million contract was awarded to the ERG Motorola Alliance to supply 5 million card and readers.

Motorola will supply the digital radio communications system for the line.

The supply contract was finally signed in November 1999 with Motorola as the radio provider alongside Thales, although Motorola ’ s Basingstoke base softens the disappointment.
