[edit] Article confuses CPU32 with MC683xx family

This article confuses the CPU32 embedded processor core with the MC683xx family of embedded microcontrollers. Strictly speaking, the CPU32 is only a processor core, not a complete microcontroller. Furthermore, while some MC683xx microcontrollers use the CPU32 core, others, such as the MC68302 family and the MC68306, use the 68EC000 core. --Colin Douglas Howell 07:20, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

I have now fixed this, renaming the article and mentioning both processor cores used in the MC683xx family. The CPU32 processor core may still deserve a separate article focusing on its unique features. --Colin Douglas Howell 17:27, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

were/are there any implementations of CPU32 outside the MC683xx line of parts? if not, CPU32 could remain as a subsection of the 683xx page. I do recall a MC683xx part based on the 68HC000, although I cannot recall the exact model number at the present. --Aaron J. Grier
