Thanks it seems to be a winchip 2a 200 mhz, very nice.
Do you plan to test it?

Yikes. It is kind of painful to see pins cut off like this. I guess Evergreen was going cheap.

Ive tested it in the past, it booted but I have no use for it. I was gonna chuck it. trying to sell it on ebay is not worth my time.

I found an October 1997 issue of Byte with an in-depth preview of the C6's architecture.

Then you might as well just donate it to someone who is willing to do some testing with it, if only for historical reasons.

I'm looking at those cut pins. looks like they cut bf0,1,2 is that right? bf1 looks like it is pulled low to vss

I wasn't aware that winchip made use of BF2

can anyone speak to or experiment with one of those chips to discover the range of supported multipliers?
