The TB-303 ( short for " Transistorized Bass ") was originally marketed to guitarists for bass accompaniment while practicing alone.

Transistorized mechatronic circuits have replaced electromechanical devices in controlling appliances and machinery.

The TX-0, for Transistorized Experimental computer zero, but affectionately referred to as tixo ( pronounced " tix oh "), was an early fully transistorized computer and contained a then-huge 64K of 18-bit words of magnetic core memory.

That project became called the 709-T ( for Transistorized ), which because of the sound when spoken, quickly shifted to the nomenclature 7090 ( i. e., seven-oh-ninety ).

This led to an article in the September 1969 issue of Model Rocketry ; " Transistorized Tracking Light for Night Launched Model Rockets " by Captain Forrest Mims.

Transistorized tracking light for model rockets.

The range of FAST ( Farfisa All-Silicon Transistorized ) organs was launched at the 1968 NAMM show, and production of the Professional series appeared around the same time.

) Other construction projects included " The Fish Finder ", an underwater temperature probe ; the " Transistorized Tremolo " for an electric guitar ; and a one tube VHF receiver to listen to aircraft.

Flynn invited Mims to write an article about his " Transistorized Tracking Light for Night Launched Model Rockets " and it was published in the September 1969 issue of Model Rocketry.

The Swiss company SAIA used the 8085 and the 8085-2 as the CPUs of their PCA1 line of programmable logic controllers during the 1980s.

Winmodems have earned a certain notoriety for slowing down their host computer systems and for having buggy drivers, although this reputation was largely garnered during the period of their introduction to the mass market, whereupon they were apt to use substandard drivers and be found in entry-level computers with slow CPUs.

Some CPUs move the last bit shifted off the end of a number during a shift into the carry flag during some or all shift operations ; since the bit bucket is usually considered the place where discarded ( and therefore lost ) bits go, the carry flag in this case would probably be excluded from the bit bucket — unless, perhaps, the speaker intended to ignore the bit saved in the carry flag and treat it as though it had been truly discarded.

The 1100 / 60 introduced a new feature to the line: the CPUs used microcode that was loaded during the booting process.

More complicated CPUs use register renaming, so that the mapping of which physical entry stores a particular architectural register changes dynamically during execution.

While multithreading CPUs have been around since the 1950s, simultaneous multithreading was first researched by IBM in 1968.

In these cases, expansion buses are entirely separate and no longer share any architecture with their host CPU ( and may in fact support many different CPUs, as is the case with PCI ).

They used 8 MHz Motorola 68000 CPUs with of RAM and had no disk drives.

This requirement was extremely ambitious for the time, but it was realised that much of the complexity of contemporary CPUs could be dispensed with, since this machine would need only to perform I / O, branches, add register-register, move data between registers and memory, and would have no need for special instructions to perform heavy arithmetic.

Because small devices such as cellular phones have hardware restrictions such as lower memory, low-power CPUs with limited or no storage capabilities, small monochrome display screens, single-character fonts and restricted input methods ( the absence of a keyboard or a mouse ), there is a need for a simpler form of HTML.

* Most people own more than one P. C., though the concept of what a " computer " is has changed considerably: Computers are no longer limited in design to laptops or CPUs contained in a large box connected to a monitor.

Although the company was short-lived and the brand name is no longer actively used by its current owner, Cyrix's competition with Intel created the market for budget CPUs, which cut the average selling price of PCs and ultimately forced Intel to release its Celeron line of budget processors and cut the prices of its faster processors more quickly in order to compete.

Not all tasks can be handled in this fashion, and extracting performance from multiple processors remains a problem even today, yet the concept has the advantage of having no theoretical limit to speed – if you need more performance, simply add more CPUs.

* TinyBoot: an embeddable OpenFirmware-like system for small CPUs ( code: website is no more )

There is complete affinity between two virtual CPUs implemented on the same core via hyper-threading, partial affinity between two cores on the same physical chip ( as the cores share some, but not all, cache ), and no affinity between separate physical chips.

For example many integrated circuits, including CPUs, memory and even some relatively simple logic chips may no longer be produced because the technology has been superseded, their original developer has gone out of business or a competitor has bought them out and effectively killed off their products to remove competition.

Specifically, Visual PinMAME is for emulating CPUs and the connected ROMs used in modern pinball tables, as opposed to tables with solid-state electronics / electro-mechanical mechanisms that contain no ROMs or advanced ICs in their hardware design.

As compared to socket-based CPUs, there are no pins that can be bent, and the CPU is less likely to be damaged by improper installation of a cooler.

If the DLX were implemented in hardware at some future time, it is expected that it would perform no worse than the MIPS CPUs it is related to.

On pre-NX CPUs, the presence of the ' executable ' attribute has no effect.

On IA-32 CPUs where there is no NX bit, PaX can emulate the functionality of one in various ways.

Several " secure CPUs " have been built as asynchronous CPUs ; they have no global timing reference.

Such transfers require no work to be done by CPUs, caches, or context switches, and transfers continue in parallel with other system operations.

There are no official references to this processor except officials explaining that the batch of CPUs were " being shipped to specific customers ", though it is clear it has no relation with the other Geode NX CPUs other than sharing the same CPU socket ( Socket A ).

For backward compatibility, all x86 CPUs start in " real mode " with no memory protection, fixed 64 KiB segments, and only 20-bit ( 1024 KiB ) addressing.

Most modern CPUs ( even embedded CPUs ) are now pipelined, and microcoded CPUs with no pipelining are seen only in the most area-constrained embedded processors.

* Transistor-transistor logic Small Scale Integration logic chips-no longer used for CPUs

* Programmable Array Logic and Programmable logic devices-no longer used for CPUs

* CMOS gate arrays-no longer used for CPUs

No longer a competitive CPU in its intended market segment, it nevertheless required substantial manufacturing resources to produce: in spite of its 21. 4 million transistors, its 118 mm² die was considerably smaller than the 184 mm² of the 22-million-transistor Athlon ( cache RAM taking much less area per-trasistor than logic ), but the K6-III was still significantly more costly to produce than the 81 mm² 9. 3 million-transistor K6-2 CPUs.

The production took much longer than expected because of the rapid advancement of personal computer hardware at the time ; specifically, PC CPUs advancing from 80386, to 80486, to Pentiums in the years the game was being developed.

AM2 CPUs are no longer manufactured, and are usually only available second hand.

Since late 2010, Oracle Corporation no longer uses Sun Fire brand for their current T series SPARC servers, and since mid-2012 for new X series x86-86 machines based on Intel Xeon CPUs.
