Hewlett Packard PA-7300LC (Velociraptor) processorsIntroduction: 1996The PA-7300LC is the direct descendant of the PA-7100LC and likewise designed for low-cost systems. It is still a PA-RISC 1.1 32-bit processor, in contrast to the new PA-RISC 2.0 64-bit PA-8000 introduced in the same timeframe. While the PA-7300LC is rather close to the original PA-7100LC design it has several significantenhancements: large on-chip L1 caches (in contrast to the small assist caches of the 7100LC and 7200), integrated L2 controller onto the MIOC and improved bus interface (faster GSC). The then current process technologies made it possible to include a large L1 cache on the CPU die, breaking a long-standing HP tradition of (large) off-chip L1 caches. The PA-7300LC was the last PA-RISC version 1.1 CPU, all later workstations and servers used 64-bit PA-RISC 2.0 processors. PA-7300LC was used in 744/{132L,165L}, 745/132L, 745/165L, 748/132L, 748/165L, A180, A180C, B132L, B132L+, B160L, B180L+, C132L, C160L, D220, D230, D320, D330, RDI PrecisionBook 132, 160, 180 and Hitachi 3050RX 255, 355E, 365E.
