Overview
The MD8087-2/B is a 16-bit math coprocessor manufactured by Rochester Electronics, LLC. It utilizes HMOS technology and is housed in a CDIP40 package. This component serves as a floating-point unit designed to accelerate mathematical computations for compatible microprocessors.
Feature Summary
- Provides dedicated hardware acceleration for complex floating-point arithmetic operations
- Integrates with standard microprocessor architectures to enhance computational throughput
- Utilizes HMOS fabrication technology for reliable signal processing
Applications
- Scientific computing systems requiring high-precision calculations
- Industrial control units needing accelerated mathematical processing
- Legacy computer systems utilizing 16-bit processor architectures
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific suffix (e.g., -2/B) against your system requirements, as it may indicate voltage or temperature grade variations. Confirm pin compatibility with the target motherboard or carrier board. Ensure the CDIP40 package fits the existing socket or footprint. Request lot traceability and test reports from the supplier to guarantee component authenticity and performance consistency for critical applications.
Selection Notes
Select this component only if the host system architecture explicitly supports a 16-bit HMOS math coprocessor interface. Evaluate the physical space constraints of the CDIP40 package within the enclosure. Consider the thermal dissipation characteristics inherent to HMOS technology when designing the cooling solution. Verify that the required floating-point precision aligns with the capabilities of this specific generation of coprocessors.
Part Context
Rochester Electronics specializes in providing authorized continuing source solutions for obsolete and end-of-life semiconductors. The MD8087 series represents legacy math coprocessor technology, originally designed to offload arithmetic tasks from central processors. This part ensures supply continuity for systems that cannot be easily migrated to modern integrated floating-point units.
Replacement Considerations
Direct substitutes are limited due to the proprietary interface and HMOS technology. Check for exact pin-compatible equivalents from original manufacturers if available. Modern FPGA-based solutions may require significant redesign to emulate the MD8087 functionality.
