ROM 1
The Macintosh PowerBook 165c ROM is identical to the ROM used in the PowerBook 160
and PowerBook 180 computers. The ROM chips have been moved from the secondary
logic board to a new RAM/ROM board to make room for the color display circuits.
A new 32K x 8-bit declaration ROM appears in NuBus
™
slot $C address space and
provides firmware support for the color LCD.
ROM Wait States 1
ROM accesses by the CPU require 4 processor wait states (7 clock cycles at 33 MHz),
which is equivalent to 180 ns per access.
RAM 1
The PowerBook 165c includes 4 MB of 85 ns pseudostatic RAM, consisting of eight
512K x 8-bit chips. The RAM chips are contained on a new RAM/ROM board to provide
room for the color display circuitry on the secondary logic board.
