By Staff -- Purchasing, 3/26/1998

Check out new IBM microprocessor that operates at 1 billion cycles per second (1000 megahertz). For reference, today's fastest processors typically operate at speeds of less than 300 MHz. The chip contains 1 million transistors and uses 0.25 micron cmos 6AX technology. The microarchitecture and circuits will eventually be applied to MPUs using "copper chip" technology.
