2- / 4-bit Microprocessors


IMP-00A

Manufacturer

National Semiconductor

Category 4-bit register and arithmetic logic unit (RALU)
Introduction 1972
Technology

Monolithic MOS / LSI circuit utilizing standard P-channel, enhancement mode, silicon gate technology; it provides a 4-bit slice of the register and arithmetic portion of a general purpose controller / processor; RALU's may be stacked in parallel for longer word lengths (up to 32-bit); The RALU has been designed to be used with other members of National's IMP family (in particular the CROM) to form a complete processor; the RALU operates on +5V and -12V supplies with 4-phase, non overlapping clocks; applications: general purpose processor, machine tool controlers, small business machines, terminal controllers, test system and instrument control, traffic controller

Manufacturer

National Semiconductor

Category control and read only memory unit (CROM)
Introduction 1972
Technology

Monolithic MOS / LSI circuit utilizing standard P-channel, enhancement mode, silicon gate technology; it provides read only microprogram storage and control logic and is designed for use with the register and arithmetic logic unit; the CROM provides storage for one-hundred microinstructions of 23 bits each; one CROM may be used with 1 to 8 RALU's to implement systems with 4 to 32-bit word lenghts; multiple CROMs may be used to provide expanded capability; CROMs are available with standard 8 and 16-bit instruction sets; the CROM operates on +5V and -12V supplies with 4-phase, non overlapping clocks; applications: custom instruction sets; custom application control programs; standard IMP instruction sets; control of 4 to 32-bit microprocessors when used with register and arithmetic logic unit

Max. clock frequency
