Hardware Specifications
80386S X CPU
The NEATsx uses an 80386sx microprocessor that operates
with 0.5 to 0.7 wait states at 16 Mhz with 100ns (100 nanosecond)
DRAMs and at 20 Mhz with 80ns DRAMs. The system can also be
software switched between low (8/10 Mhz) and high (16/20 Mhz)
speed modes. The operating speeds depend on the speed of DRAM in
stalled. By using the Quickset program provided on the NEATsx
floppy disk, you can select the desired microprocessor clock speed.
80387S X Math Coprocessor
The NEATsx has a socket for an 80387SX math coprocessor.
If an 80387SX chip is to be installed, make sure that it is clock speed
compatible with the NEATsx. The 80387SX-16 is required if the sys
tem is to operate at 16 Mhz.
Refer to the section on component installation for guidance re
garding the installation of the chip if you intend to do it yourself. Be
fore beginning a job, check whether or not doing the work yourself
will void your warranty.
