Motorola for the MVME2600 and MVME3600 series of
boards. It provides the necessary interface between the
PowerPC 60x bus and the PCI bus, and acts as interrupt
controller.
A computer in which the processorÕs instruction set is
limited to constant-length instructions that can usually be
executed in a single clock cycle.
