Motorola 68008

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

The Motorola MC68008 is a 8/16/32-bit microprocessor from the early 1980s. It is an 8-bit bus version of the Motorola MC68000, and can address 1MB or 4MB of memory (using a 48-pin or 52-pin package, respectively).

The original 48-pin package version was used in the Sinclair QL, to make maximum use of inexpensive 8-bit technology on the motherboard while computing internally with the relatively fast 16/32-bit processing engine.
