Procurement Notes
Verify the specific manufacturer origin, as this part number has been associated with both Intel and Altera production histories. Confirm the package type matches the required 68-CPGA specification. Ensure the operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the target application. Cross-reference datasheets to confirm functional equivalence with standard i387 coprocessors before procurement.
Selection Notes
Select this component when an x86 system requires dedicated hardware acceleration for floating-point calculations. The choice depends on the need for i387 compatibility and the availability of a 68-pin CPGA footprint on the motherboard. Consider the thermal characteristics and mounting constraints associated with ceramic pin grid array packages in the final design phase.
Part Context
This component belongs to the family of math coprocessors used alongside central processing units in personal computers and workstations. It was historically significant in offloading complex mathematical tasks from the main CPU. The designation links to early x86 floating-point standards, serving as a peripheral processor for numerical computations.
Replacement Considerations
Consult official cross-reference lists for compatible i387 math coprocessors. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical specifications against original system requirements before substituting.
