Motorola Dragonball Microprocessor Motorola/Freescale Semiconductors Dragonball is microprocessor design based on the famous 68000 core, but implemented as an all-in-one low-power solution for handheld computer use.
The Motorola 68881 was a floating-point coprocessor chip that was utilized in some computer systems that used the 68020 or 68030 CPU.
Jump to: navigation, search In computing, Amiga is a range of home/personal computers primarily using the Motorola 68000 processor family, whose development started in 1982, initially as a game machine.

 PDA Encyclopedia - Motorola 68000
Luckily it was used for the design of homecomputers like the Amiga and Atari.
As of 2001, the Dragonball versions of the processor are used in the popular Palm series of PDAs from Palm Computing and Handspring's Visor, though the architecture is being phased out in favor of the ARM processor core.
However, the instructions did more than Intel processors.
