IBM Utilizes Copper for Embedded Processor Technology

In Addition to recently shipping the world's first copper-based microprocessors, including a PowerPC 740/750 operating at 400MHz, IBM has announced several other initiatives associated with copper, including availability of the fastest embedded processor on the market, a 400 MHz embedded PowerPC chip.

Further, IBM will incorporate copper into its S/390, RS/6000 and AS/400 server families, with prototypes planned for 1998 and production systems planned for 1999. In addition, the company stated it will immediately broaden the use of copper in the marketplace by building copper chips for other companies through its standard foundry services.
