I am trying to locate PC/AT add-on boards which can contain one or
more processors (such as the i960CA.). I know INMOS has the B008 board, onto
which 4 TRAMS (each with a T800 and 2MB) can be placed. This gives a total
of 8MB and 40 (INMOS) MIPS (all in one AT slot).
We are actually using this configuration now for a compute vision application.
However we would like to investigate other possible configurations that would
give us more raw speed. INMOS has pre-announced a H1 (100mips) chip but this
is not available until at least 1991.
Processors may include the i860, i960CA and possibly a Motorola 88000
or even 68040s and others.
I know that CSPI will have a PC board available in May'90 which will
contain an i860 with 2-8 MB.
I also know that Intel has an evaluation board for the i960CA for the PC.
ARE THERE ANY OTHERS out there??
I would also appreciate leads to optimizing C compilers and other
software tools for such boards/processors.
Thanks.
