 | |||||
| |||||
| Motorola 68040 | Combined central processing (CPU), floating-pint (FPU) and paged memory management (PMMU) units with 8 kilobytes of on-chip cache memory. |
A highly integrated microprocessor providing excellent computing performance, high data transfer rate, and exceptional reliability. | |||
| Three NeXTbus expansion slots | Provides flexibility for expansion as your requirements change and new technology becomes available. | ||||
| NeXT-designed IC's | Turbo Memory Controller (TMC) Peripherial Controller (IPC) |
Supports up to 128MB of fast, interleaved RAM, with prefetching. Supports off-loading of all seven DMA peripheral channels from the main processor, and is capable of running at 50MB per second. | |||
| Motorola 56001 DSP | Provides fast processing of large matrix calculation--used for generating CD-quality sound, music, speech, and tone detection | ||||
| MegaPixel 17-inch Monochrome Display |
1120x832 resolution with 92 dpi |
Delivers sharp, crisp display of text and graphics with enough screen space to run multiple applications simultaneously. | |||
| Eight built-in ports | SCSI Two RS-423 serial ports DSP I/O Port Display Port Laser printer port Two Ethernet (twisted and thin) ports |
Support of up to seven SCSI peripherials Allows NeXTcube Turbo computers to be tailored to meet your needs with popular serial-based peripherials such as fax and data modems without using expansion slots. Supports direct I/O access to the DSP Provides connection to built-in video. Allows direct connections to NeXT's 400 dpi Laser Printer. Provides easy connection to virtually any Ethernet network without having to purchase additional cards or adapters. | |||
| Built-in sound I/O | Allows voice input to applications with sound-handling capabilities and provides dual channel CD-quality output. | ||||
| NeXT 2.88 MB floppy disk drive | 2.88 MB of storage space using extended density (ED) disks, as well as 720 KB and 1.44 MB disks. Allows for convenient transfer of data files between Macintosh®, OS/2® and MS-DOS®. | ||||
| 16 MB on-board RAM | 4 high-speed SIMM memory sockets expandable to 128MB |
Supports 16 and 32 MB SIMMS in two-SIMM increments. When denser chips (16 MB) become available, NeXTstation™ computers can be upgraded up to 128MB. | |||
| Optional parity support | Parity memory checking is available when optional parity RAM is installed. | ||||
| NeXTstep™ | UNIX®-based operating environment optimized for multitasking and networking. Offers superior graphical user interface and development environment, with the only object-oriented system software available on the market today. | ||||
