Help with Motorola 68060

[moneyshotz]

Hi Guys,
I just had a few questions about this processor. I've searched practically everywhere and I cant find this information.
1. How many processor buses does it have? Describe these buses.
2. How many interrupts and DMA signals does it have?
3. Does it have any standard bus I/O? If there are standard buses, what types are the buses?

Thanks a lot

Hi,
I already checked out that site. But I couldnt not find the answers to those three questions.

Thanks Though

Did you look at the entire site, or just that one page? It seems to me like the manual for that processor might have some of the information you're looking for (although obviously not written to directly answer those questions, it will probably have the answer in one form or another).

Yes, it's a 400-some page document, but it's at least worth looking at...

The 600-some page Programmer's Reference Manual may even shed some light on those questions.

Yup. I downloaded that too. Nothing in there.

These questions bark up the wrong tree. Non-integrated processors like the Motorola 680x0 series (or our beloved generic x86 stuff) don't have interrupt or DMA controllers, nor do they embed any standard busses or I/O devices. That's what chipsets are for.
