tions every clock and peak at execution of three
instructions per clock
A 32-bit demultiplexed and pipelined burst bus pro-
vides a 132 Mbyte s bandwidth to a system’s high-
speed external memory sub-system In addition the
80960CF’s on-chip caching of instructions proce-
dure context and critical program data substantially
decouples system performance from the wait states
associated with accesses to the system’s slower
cost sensitive main memory sub-system
The 80960CF bus controller also integrates full wait
state and bus width control for highest system per-
formance with minimal system design complexity
Unaligned access and Big Endian byte order support
reduces the cost of porting existing applications to
the 80960CF
The processor also integrates four complete data-
chaining DMA channels and a high-speed interrupt
controller on-chip The DMA channels perform sin-
gle-cycle or two-cycle transfers data packing and
unpacking and data chaining Block transfers in ad-
dition to source or destination synchronized trans-
fers are provided
The interrupt controller provides full programmability
of 248 interrupt sources into 32 priority levels with a
typical interrupt task switch (‘‘latency’’) time of
750 ns

PURPOSE
This document previews electrical characterizations
of Intel’s i960 CF embedded microprocessor (avail-
able in 33 25 and 16 MHz) For a detailed descrip-
tion of any i960 CF processor functional topic oth-
er than parametric performance refer to the latest
i960 CA Microprocessor Reference Manual (Order
No 270710) and the
i960 CF Reference Manual Ad-
dendum
(Order No 272188)

i960 CF PROCESSOR OVERVIEW
Intel’s i960 CF microprocessor is the performance
follow-on product to the i960 CA processor The
i960 CF product is socket- and object code-compati-
ble with the CA this makes CA-to-CF design up-
grades straightforward The i960 CF processor’s in-
struction cache is 4 Kbytes (CA device has 1 Kbyte)
CF data cache is 1 Kbyte (CA device has no data
cache) This extra cache on the CF product adds a
significant performance boost over the CA The
80960CF is object code compatible with the 32-bit
80960 Core Architecture while including Special
Function Register extensions to control on-chip pe-
ripherals and instruction set extensions to shift 64-
bit operands and configure on-chip hardware Multi-
