Floating Point Clock Speed
2,953 wordsFloating Point Coprocessors The designer of any microprocessor would like to extend its instruction set almost infinitely but is limited by the quantity of silicon available (not to mention the problems of testability and complexity). Consequently, a real microprocessor represents a compromise between what is desirable and what is acceptable to the majority of the chips users. For example, the 68020 microprocessor is not optimized for calculations that require a large volume of scientific (i. e....
