GE VMIVME-7695 Single-Slot Pentium II Embedded Module

GE VMIVME-7695 Single-Slot Pentium II Embedded Module

MICROPROCESSOR

The VMIVME-7695 brings  Intel® Pentium II processor with MMX™ to VMEbus,  offering a processor speed of 333 MHz. The Pentium II  processor has 32-bit addressing and a 64-bit data bus. Its  superscalar architecture allows three instructions to be  executed per clock cycle. A dynamic branch prediction unit,  separate instruction and data caches, and MMX technology  also increase the Pentium II processor’s performance. The  Pentium II processor also provides 512 Kbyte of internal L2  cache using dual independent bus architecture for high  bandwidth and performance.
