Aurum Architecture

The Aurum Architecture was an experimental architecture developed by UNiT Corp for cyborg and robot processors. Most projects built on the architecture never made it through design, but Todd West's C9287 Processor passed QA tests.

Design


The Aurum Architecture was split into a 2:1 core setup. 2/3 of those cores were high-power processing cores, and the other 1/3 were efficient and used for basic tasks. As Aurum was primarily designed for cyborgs, it had a restraining system to lock the clock speed to prevent over accelerated cognitive function.

Integration
Aurum was used in hundreds if not thousands of different cyborg attachments. One of the greatest warriors of the Crimson Robe, C9287, had an Aurum C9287 chip in his head.

Line-up
Aurum was sold over three generations: A, B, and C. A & B were almost entirely used internally and were never sold. The C generation, also known as the 3000 series, was released on the 7th of March, 1978. The C generation consisted of the C9287, the C8433 and the C6962. An additional "D" coprocessor was released as well a few months later.
