- The truth is: the F 030 has a internal RAM port with 16 data and 24 address
- pins. (i've seen the specs and I've seen the layout)
-
- On the other hand a german magazine has tested, that the processor accesses
- the RAM as if it was a 32 bit memory.
-
- If the second statement is true: are they multiplexing?
