| 31. | Microcontrollers traditionally do not have a math coprocessor, so floating point arithmetic is performed by software.
|
| 32. | In that architecture, the coprocessor speeds up floating-point arithmetic on the order of fiftyfold.
|
| 33. | The Intel 8087 math coprocessor was the first x86 device which supported floating point arithmetic in hardware.
|
| 34. | The coprocessor was synchronised by passing a dummy byte and then regulated by the relevant buffer semaphore.
|
| 35. | Many PCs did not have a floating point coprocessor so all FP had to be done in software.
|
| 36. | The coprocessor board only runs on high-profile machines due to power supply and mechanical spacing requirements.
|
| 37. | The math coprocessor business rapidly increased starting in 1994 with software products that accelerated applications like Lotus 123.
|
| 38. | In Hydra, there are multiple computers, each with its own FPGA acting as a chess coprocessor.
|
| 39. | Microsoft HoloLens uses special custom-designed TSMC-fabricated 28nm coprocessor that has 24 Tensilica DSP cores.
|
| 40. | A . A math coprocessor takes the load of calculating mathematics off a personal computer's main chip.
