Shottky Bipolar LSI circuit 2-bit Bit-slice processor
??, 6 Microns 64Kbyte
512 microinstructions
Several 3002's could be
linked together to create a computer.
The Intel 3002 was Intel's first bipolar
Bit-slice device. It was a 2 Bit
device and very unusual because most other devices were
4 Bit.
The 3002 is a peer of the Intel 8080, but the 8080 could
only handle 8-bits
of data at time. The 3002 was a 2-bit ALU, but 8 3002's
could be linked
together to create a computer that could handle 16-bits
at a time. |
