Today I received the 8087 math co-processor. I installed it into the socket and it was recognised by the system:
then i suddenly touched the chip and it appeared to be noticeably hot , so I turned the system off immediately.
Is it normal for this kind of hardware to become hot only after several minutes of uptime even without doing any calculations? What is the normal working temperature of 8087?
