about

How does one go about packing the power of a large mainframe computer into a desktop computer? Answering this question was only one of the many problems facing the HP design team given the assignment of developing a personal engineering design station with enough computing power to allow the entiredesign process to take place on an engineer’s bench. Their answer is a fully integrated 32-bit processing system based on five custom VLSI circuits.
