Rafael,
>>I would tell you that one of the "embedded applications" of MC68020 is FADEC
(Full Authority Digital Engine Control) for turbofans. And that's not a
joke…<<
I find it interesting that you know the Pratt & Whitney PW4168 Turbofan Engine
uses a MC68020 in the FADEC (also know as the Electronic Engine Control). I
work at Pratt & Whitney in Connecticut, US, as an Technical Instructor and the
EEC170 is my _specialty_! I assume you know the FADEC from the Airbus A330
aircraft.
Let's see, you are from Berlin, so do you work for/with LTU? They are the only
operator of the Growth PW4000 engine in Europe.
BTW, I use my Amiga 2000/040 to render cool 3D anims for my EEC and engine
training at work. Neat, Huh?
John
