DISCUSSION Processor --------- MC68030, 32-bit architecture, 31.3344 MHz clock frequency, integrated Paged Memory Management Unit (PMMU) Coprocessor ----------- Optional MC68882 floating-point unit, 31.3344 MHz clock frequency Memory ------ * Comes with 4 MB of RAM (5 MB of RAM for internal CD-ROM version), expandable to 68 MB. Four SIMM slots require 80ns (or faster) fast-paged mode RAM. * 1MB ROM * 256 bytes of non-volatile parameter memory (PRAM) Video RAM --------- 512K video RAM, upgradable to 1 MB (Internal CD-ROM version comes with 1 MB of VRAM). * 512K video RAM supports the following modes: Ð Macintosh 12" RGB Display (512 x 384 pixels) at 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 bits per pixel Ð Macintosh 12" Monochrome Display, AppleColor High-Resolution RGB Monitor, Macintosh Performa and Performa Plus Display and the Macintosh Color Display (640 x 480 pixels) at 1, 2, 4, and 8 bits per pixel * 1 MB video RAM supports the following modes: Ð Macintosh 12" RGB Display (512 x 384 pixels) at 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 bits per pixel Ð Macintosh 12" Monochrome Display (640 by 480 pixels) at 1, 2, 4 and 8 bits per pixel - AppleColor High-Resolution RGB Monitor, Macintosh Performa and Performa Plus Display and the Macintosh Color Display (640 x 480 pixels) at 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 bits per pixel Disk Drives ----------- * Apple SuperDrive 1.4 MB high-density floppy disk drive * Internal Apple SCSI hard disk drive (third- or half-height, 80 MB to 400 MB) * Support for a second internal half-height 5.25-inch SCSI device, such as a AppleCD 300i CD-ROM drive or a hard disk drive * External SCSI port supports up to six additional SCSI devices Interfaces ---------- * Two ADB ports support keyboard, mouse, and other daisy-chained devices via synchronous serial bus (maximum of three devices). * Three NuBus expansion slots accommodate expansion cards with a maximum power budget of 15 watts per slot. * One PDS (processor-direct slot) accommodates an accelerator card with a maximum power budget of 5 watts. * Two RS-232/RS-422 serial ports, 230.4 Kbits/second maximum (up to 0.920 Mbit/sec if clocked externally). * SCSI interface supports up to six external SCSI devices. * Sound output port capable of delivering monophonic sound from computer generated sounds to both channels of a stereo device. Audio CD's deliver stereo sound to the port. (Audio CD's can play in mono through the built-in speaker on the Performa 600) * Sound input port for monaural sound input AC Line Input ------------- * Line voltage: 100-240 volts AC, RMS automatically configured * Frequency: 50-60 Hz single-phase * Power: 112 watts maximum, not including monitor power AC Line Output -------------- * Output receptacle: 100-240 volts AC, RMS, 3 ampere maximum DC Power -------- * 112 watts maximum +5 volt 15.0 amps +12 volt 2.5 amps -12 volts 0.6 amps Clock/Calendar -------------- * CMOS custom chip with long-life lithium battery Displays -------- The internal video logic supports a variety of color and monochrome monitors, including: * Macintosh Performa Display * Macintosh Performa Plus Display * Macintosh Color Display * Macintosh 12" Monochrome Display * Macintosh 12" RGB Display * AppleColor High-Resolution RGB Monitor * 640 x 480 pixel VGA displays (special adapter cable required) * Other third-party monitors Monitors not supported by Performa 600's internal video are supported by NuBus video (or display) cards. Input Devices ------------- * Standard or extended Apple keyboard with ADB connector * ADB mouse: mechanical tracking, optical shaft, or contact encoding * Microphone: electret type, omnidirectional, power provided by the computer. Output voltage is 4 millivolts peak to peak at normal speaking volume. Dimensions ---------- * Weight 11.3 kg (25 lb.) * Height 152 cm (6 in.) * Width 330 mm (13 in.) * Depth 419 mm (16.5 in.) Environment ----------- * Operating temperature: 10í C to 40í C (50í F to 104í F) * Storage temperature: -40í C to 47í C (-40í F to 116.6í F) * Relative humidity: 5% to 95% (noncondensing) * Altitude: 0 to 3048 m (0 to 10,000 ft.) Software Already Installed -------------------------- * System 7 software for Performa computers, designed specifically to make the Performa easy for everyone in the family to use. * At Ease software, which helps prevent other users from accidentally erasing your valuable files. * Macintosh PC Exchange software so you can work with MS-DOS and Windows disks you bring home from work. * Application software, including a program that combines word processing (for memos and letters, spreadsheet (for financial calculations), and graphics (for drawing and painting). Article Change History: 26 Jul 1994 - Expanded information on sound out capabilities. 19 Jan 1993 - Updated to include memory configuration of internal CD ROM version. 09 Nov 1992 - Updated to further expand list of display options. 02 Nov 1992 - Updated to list of displays, and to clarify SCSI information.
