Hi all,
I have a question about the 68000. I'm trying to develop a controller d
evice for data sampling, etc. I'd love to use a 68000 family controller (is th
ere such a thing?) so that I can do code development on my Mac. What I'd reall
y like is a 68000 with: (my wish list - This isn't an April fools joke)
- an ADC (maybe with 4 sampling channels)
- built in Bidirectional UART (RS422)
- RAM
- EEPROM, EPROM, or ROM
- and possibly an internal clock/timer
- 8 or 16 bit data bus
Does anyone know if Motorolla has such a device, or anything close to this
description? I'll accept any suggestions.
Thanks for your help,
Steve

I'll accept any suggestions. The MC68332 Microcontroller may be what you are looking for. Well actually probably not. It is 68000 compatible, it dosn't have any onboard ROM, and it dosn't have a ADC. However, both of these can be add on reasonably simply. There is a good article on this microcontroller in IEEE Micro, August 1989, page 31.
