PowerPC 601™

The first implementation of the PowerPC family of

 

microprocessors. This CPU incorporates a memory management

 

unit with a 256-entry buffer and a 32KB unified (instruction and

 

data) cache. It provides a 64-bit data bus and a separate 32-bit

 

address bus. PowerPC 601 is used by Motorola, Inc. under license

 

from IBM.

PowerPC 603™

The second implementation of the PowerPC family of

 

microprocessors. This CPU incorporates a memory management

 

unit with a 64-entry buffer and an 8KB (instruction and data) cache.

 

It provides a selectable 32-bit or 64-bit data bus and a separate 32-

 

bit address bus. PowerPC 603 is used by Motorola, Inc. under

 

license from IBM.
