GPS & AGPS

Your mobile device can use Global Positioning System (GPS) signals for location-based applications. GPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S. government that are subject to changes implemented in accordance with the Department of Defense policy and the Federal Radio Navigation Plan. These changes may affect the performance of location technology on your mobile device.

Your mobile device can also use Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS), which obtains information from the cellular network to improve GPS performance. AGPS uses your wireless service provider's network and therefore airtime, data charges, and/or additional charges may apply in accordance with your service plan. Contact your wireless service provider for details.

68000202467-A specifications

The Motorola 68000 series microprocessor, specifically the 68000202467-A, stands out as a significant piece of technology in the evolution of computing. Launched in the late 1970s and gaining popularity in the 1980s, the Motorola 68000 series paved the way for many modern computing technologies. The 68000202467-A variant is known for its robust features that range from high computational efficiency to extensive compatibility with various systems.

One of the key characteristics of the 68000202467-A is its 32-bit architecture, which allows for a substantial amount of data processing per cycle compared to its predecessors. With a 16-bit data bus, the processor can interact efficiently with peripherals while maintaining compatibility with older systems. This dual feature of supporting both 16-bit and 32-bit operations made it appealing for a wide array of embedded applications and personal computers.

In terms of performance, the 68000202467-A operates at clock speeds that can reach up to 16 MHz. This speed, combined with a sophisticated instruction set, enables it to handle multiple tasks simultaneously, making it well-suited for multitasking operating systems. The 68000 has a large number of operational modes, which enhance its versatility for software developers.

The Motorola 68000 series also incorporates advanced technologies such as a 7-stage instruction pipeline, which contributes to processing efficiency. This pipelining allows subsequent instructions to be fetched while the current instruction is being executed, minimizing idle CPU time and maximizing throughput. Additionally, the processor supports various addressing modes, making it flexible for programmers to access data in memory.

Another notable aspect of the 68000202467-A is its built-in support for a vast range of development environments. With numerous software development kits and libraries available, developers could easily create applications tailored for both graphics and processing-intensive tasks. This capability turned the 68000 into a preferred choice for the gaming industry during its peak.

Overall, the Motorola 68000202467-A remains a pivotal component in the legacy of microprocessors. Its combination of architectural sophistication, performance capabilities, and compatibility positions it as a landmark in the journey of computing innovation. As technology continues to evolve, the contributions of the 68000 series are still acknowledged and studied, reminding us of how far we have come in microprocessor design and functionality.
