My 68LC060's
« on: December 15, 2012, 12:04:10 AM »
Hello Everyone,

   I have three MC68LC060RC66 CPUs here that I de-soldered from the "Nortel Meridian 1 CP NT5D03FB RLSE 02 128MB/64F" boxes that I got on eBay.  I also have three perfect '060 heat sinks, some crystal oscillators and other TTL parts off of these babies.

   Anyhoo, I have heard and read about the different '060 masks - these are labelled "75G59Y".  I haven't heard about those.  I doubt these would be fakes - Nortel most likely would have some sort of quality control in their buying process - at least I hope.

   1) Would these be suitable (or work at all) on the FPGA Arcade board if I bought it bare?

   2) If anyone else have any of these that they have overclocked, and if so - to what?

   3) Does anyone else want one of these?

Any comments would be appreciated!

These are PGA, so they should also be socketable (is that a word?)  They need to have the legs cleaned off a bit first though.

The boards they came off of had 33.3333MHz Xtals - which is odd, as I have not seen a X2 circuit to clock a CPU before, only a /2.  I wonder if they were only ever run at 33MHz in that Nortel box.

Don't know what's fair for them.  I would be open to offers.

A close-up.  Is this CPU porn?  There is silicon involved...  Silicon, silicone... whatevs.

I dunno about price - really - shoot me an offer.  Shipping would depend where you are located.  PM with with a ZIP code.
