No matter how much weight you lose, you'll always be the biggest loser

A co worker claims there were 6 volt CPUs?

 

[GammaLaser]

Only 6V? Heck, the Intel 4004 needed a 15V supply

He's right.

Older chips like the 386 ran at up to 5.5V.
i386EX: 16 MHz @2.7~3.3 volt or 20 MHz @3.0~3.6 volt or 25 MHz @4.5~5.5 volt

I'm sure that chips even older than that required more than 6V.

thread backfire?

No, I googled it and didnt see anything right away. I was figuring possibly the early chips.

Just shows how much I don't know.

You don't loose weight, you lose weight. Loose is what happens to your pants when you lose the weight.

Oh and I once overclocked a 6809 to 8mhz, an 8x overclock. :awe:

We definately had 5+ volt cpus back in the day.

I remember K6 CPUs taking pretty high voltage. They might have been 3.3v, but a friend and I put 4v through one trying to overclock it. Those were the days. (Jumpers!)

A lot of 5V electronics ran off big 6V batteries back in the day.

k6-233 ran at 3.2 v, the 200 / 166 ran at 2.9 v if i recall.

that was pretty high at the time as the competing intel penium MMX was running 2.8 i believe.

from what i remember the k6-233 at the time was around when larger ish greater than 60mm ish fans came into usage. i had a k6-200 engineering sample, that i remember sticking some huge AAVID cooler on to get over 233.
