Motorola 88000

The Motorola 88000, also referred to as the m88k, is an early 32-bit architecture that was produced by Motorola's Semiconductor Products Sector with the intention of competing with  and  processors. Motorola ended work on it when it joined the AIM alliance to develop the PowerPC processor series.

Processors

 * Motorola 88100 — the first version on the market in 1988, which lacked a memory management unit.
 * Motorola 88200 — a cache and memory management unit for the 88100.
 * Motorola 88110 — a version that integrated a memory management unit. Apple Computer did some development work on this that led to the Mac 68k emulator, but abandoned the 88110 in favor of the PowerPC. NeXT selected the 88110 for a dual-processor workstation, but left the hardware market before it was released.
 * Motorola 88410 — a secondary cache controller for the 88110.
