Hardware Description

In addition to employing a 32-bit architecture, this 32-bit family achieved higher system speed by employing features such as pipeline control, memory interleave, partial firmware conversion of operating system functions, and a high-speed standard bus. In particular the MS190, which was announced in January, achieved the world's highest performance in terms of scientific and engineering calculation by employing Current-Mode Logic LSI, a technology from the ACOS System 1000 ultra-large general-purpose computer.
