[comp.sys.acorn] New arm chip rumour

gtoal@tharr.UUCP (Graham Toal) (02/06/91)

Overheard in a pub in Cambridge: the new CMOS arms have been clocked
speeding round the corners at over 40Mips...  That's *FAST*.  I presume
someone had static Ram on their new toy...

Do you mean 40Mips or 40MHz? 

40Mips would tend to imply a clock rate pushing 80MHz and I didn't
think CMOS was capable of that. Is it? I know ECL apparently is.
