Hi
I have a Chaintech ELT-286B-1000-SM with a 10MHz 286 processor. I can't find any info about it on the web.
here's a photo, sorry for large size and bad quality.
I have an 8MHz 80287 copro in a DIP package.
I've read that 287's run at a 2/3 divider from the system clock. So the 8MHz copro should be fine in a 10MHz system.
Is this a hard and fast rule?
If not, is it unreasonable to expect the 287 to run at a 2MHz overclock?
