MicroVAX III was the generic name erroneously given to the 3rd-generation series of DEC VAX microcomputers by the computer press. It was not a formal DEC product; the confusion probably occurred because the KA630 CPU of the MicroVAX II was succeeded by the KA650 CPU, and people assumed the name of the VAX systems which used it followed.
These computers used the QBUS for their I/O bus only; main memory traffic used the KA650 Main Memory System. The KA650 CPU was implemented in VLSI.
Systems which used the KA650 included:
