$50? You like money more than CPUs  ... I checked pins alignment from various architecture CPUs but couldn't find any with such one. However, I have some strange feeling that I've already seen with yellow label somewhere else...

IMHO This CPU must worth $50.
I was just trying to get a better deal
Unfortunately, the sell turned down my three BOs. and neglect all that I PMed him/her.

I have an answer, this is a Jupiter CPU from a BULL DPS9000 mainframe computer. A very rare and unusual architecture that started like PA-Risc as discrete logic then multichip CPU. The latest multichip CPU from BULL, the Auriga, was updated to the single chip Auriga2.
Auriga:

Auriga2:
http://www.feb-patrimoine.com/PROJET/gcos7/artemis/artemis.htm
Then the architecture was improved to what was the most advanced CPU at the time, with the largest transistor count: Jupiter. Then BULL made contract with IBM to develop a line of servers based on the Power architecture and ended its DPS mainframe series.
| Quote: | Jupiter (1995-1997)
After the finalization of the Auriga 2 project, that regrouped 4 DPS-7 processors on a single board to build a computer with up to 24 processors, and after the failure of supplying NEC with a XSA version of Auriga 2, the Les Clayes design team was becoming idle and was proposed to build a DPS-9000 version of the Auriga 2 system. This project was code-named Jupiter.
Formally announced in April 97, Jupiter was christened DPS-9000/700 with a maximum 8xSMP configuration at 45 Mips per processor.
The processor chip of Jupiter is one of the most integrated of its time, it includes 7.3 million transistors
|
The Auriga2 has 7 rows of pins while Jupiter has 6 rows (like on the CPU on sale on eBay).
I brought the 2 remaining ones from the seller but before shipping he told me that the markings were not "CPU" on the unit he had left but rather "CSD" and "CSA" (data/adress cache?). I asked him for a refund. Beware that he just have support chip left. For those of you that got the CPU, keep it preciously this is a really cool part of french mainframe history! |
