1. Overview

The Continuum 600/1200 Series systems are the first Stratus RISC systems based on the Hewlett Packard PA-RISC
HP7100 microprocessor and a new system bus architecture. The Series 600 is an entry-level to mid-range system
designed around a 6-slot backplane in the Central Electronic Cabinet (CEC). The Series 1200 version is an
expandable high-end system featuring a 12-slot CEC backplane.

The CEC cabinet main chassis boards in the 600/1200 Series include the following:

CPU-Memory Board

- The CPU-Memory board is available in two designs: uniprocessor (one logical/ two

physical CPUs) and twin processor (two logical/four physical CPUs). Both are available in 72 or 96 MHz
versions with 256 KB instruction cache (Icache) and 256 KB data cache (Dcache) or 1 MB Icache and 1 MB
Dcache. Memory sizes range from 128 MB to 512 MB using 128-MB (M702) memory modules, or 512 MB to
2 GB using 512-MB (M713) memory modules. For the most current information on available memory refer to
