The KA650 is the CPU used in DEC's MicroVAX III. It is a single quad-height PCB which plugs into a QBUS backplane. [4]
The KA650 is implemented using the CVAX with floating point instruction support provided by the CFPA, main memory control provided by CMCTL, and various system support functions by the SSC.
Memory Subsystem
The KA650 memory subsystem is detailed elsewhere: DEC KA650 Memory Subsystem.
