TOPIC This article gives the technical specifications for the Power Macintosh 6100/60 computer. DISCUSSION Microprocessor -------------- * 60-MHz PowerPC 601 RISC Processor Memory ------ * 4 MB ROM * 256 bytes of non-volatile parameter memory * 8 MB of RAM standard, expandable to 72 MB * 2 SIMM slots (1 pair) * 80 ns (nanosecond) SIMMs or faster * SIMMs can be 4 MB, 8 MB, 16 MB or 32 MB, but must be installed in pairs of the same size. For example, you should install two 8 MB SIMMs in first two adjoining slots. * Possible RAM configurations are 8, 16, 24, 40 and 72 MB. * L2 Cache Slot for Optional 256K Macintosh Cache Card RAM note: All 8MM RAM configurations come with 8MB of RAM soldered onto the logic board Form Factor ----------- * Modular desktop enclosure (similar to Quadra 610, 660av enclosure) Disk Drives ----------- * One Built-in Apple SuperDrive 1.4 MB floppy disk drive that uses high-density floppy disks and reads, writes, and formats Macintosh, MS-DOS, OS/2, and ProDOS disks. * Support for one internal one-third, 5.25-inch height SCSI devices, one of which may be used for removable media, such as an internal CD-ROM drive. * One internal one-third height hard disk (250MB, 350MB options available) * Optional internal Apple CD-ROM drive (see above) * Optional external SCSI hard disk drive (many capacities available) Video Display ------------- * 640k of DRAM based video: 16 bit on 14-inch monitors, 8 bit on 16-inch monitors. DRAM based video is not expandable. (The table below details support for specific monitors.) * VRAM based video: No VRAM video support or expansion. Monitor: Resolution: Colors or Grays: ------------------------------- ----------- ---------------- 12-inch Color 512 by 384 thousands 12-inch Monochrome 640 by 480 256 13-inch or 14-inch Color or VGA 640 by 480 thousands 15-inch Portrait Monochrome 640 by 870 256 16-inch Color 832 by 624 256 Note: Built-in video (HDI-45 with 640K DRAM support) doesn't support any monitor with a resolution greater than 832 by 624. To use a larger monitor (19-inch, 20-inch, or 21-inch), a third-party video card or the AV card must be used. Interfaces ---------- * One internal Nubus 90 PDS. Supports block transfers to and from main memory, 2x block transfers card to card. There is a NUBUS adapter for the Power Macintosh 6100. A NuBus card requires an adapter card & bracket. There is only one slot, so it supports one PDS card OR one NuBus card. * One Apple Desktop Bus (ADB) port, supporting a keyboard, mouse, and other devices. * One AAUI-15 Ethernet connector. * Two serial (RS-232/RS-422) ports. (1 Printer/LocalTalk, 1 Modem, both support GeoPort) * SCSI interface for connecting up to a total of seven SCSI devices. * Sound output port for stereo compact disc audio and stereo computer- generated sound. * Sound input port for stereo sound input (supports 16-bit stereo audio) * One AV Display Connector supports the Apple AudioVision 14 Display. The bundled Video Adapter Cable (Part #M2681LL/A) allows you to connect a monitor with a standard DB-15 connector to your Power Macintosh built-in video. * One internal 601 PDS (processor direct slot) * One internal L2 (Level 2) cache slot Audio System ------------ * 16-bit stereo in and out * Sample rates of 48, 44.1, 24, 22.05 kilohertz (kHz) * Input line level: 1 volt peak-to-peak * Output line level: 1 volt peak-to-peak * Input SNR (signal-to-noise ratio): 82 decibels (dB) with no audible discrete tones * Output SNR: 85 dB with no audible discrete tones * Bandwidth: 20 Hz-20 kHz (+/- 2 dB) at 44.100 kHz sample rate * THD+N (Total harmonic distortion plus noise): Less than 0.05 percent; measured 20 Hz-20kHz with a 1-Vrms sine wave input. Networking ---------- * Built-in Ethernet * Serial port for AppleTalk * Integrated GeoPort telecommunications architecture for data, fax, and voice connectivity. Keyboard -------- * Several Apple Desktop Bus keyboards with numeric key pads available. Mouse ----- * Apple Desktop Bus Mouse II; mechanical tracking, optical shaft, or contact encoding. Clock/Calendar -------------- * CMOS custom chip with long-life lithium battery. Apple PlainTalk Microphone (optional) -------------------------- * The microphone is unidirectional and optimized for use with speech recognition. Disability Access ----------------- * Easy Access, and visible beep included with system software. These built-in features and third-party options provide alternative input and output tools for people with disabilities. Electrical Requirements ----------------------- * Line voltage: 100 to 240 VAC, RMS single phase, automatically configured * Frequency: 50 to 60 hertz, single phase * Power Supply Output Rating (Power available for internal devices) - Continuous output 86W * A/C Line Input (Power drawn by the Power Macintosh 6100/60) - Maximum continuous 132W - Peak input 201W ADB Power Requirements ---------------------- * Maximum current draw for all ADB devices: 500 milliamps (a maximum of three Apple Desktop Bus devices is recommended) * Mouse draws 10 milliamps. * Keyboard draws 25 to 80 milliamps, depending on the keyboard model used. Size and Weight --------------- Main unit * Height: 3.4 inches (8.5 cm) * Width: 16.3 inches (41.5 cm) * Depth: 15.6 inches (39.7 cm) * Weight*: 14.0 pounds (6.4 kg) *Weight varies based on internal devices installed Mouse * Height 1.3 inches (33 mm) * Width 2.4 inches (61.7 mm) * Depth 4.2 inches (107.3 mm) * Weight 4 ounces (0.10 kg) Operating Environment --------------------- * Operating temperature: 50 degrees to 104 degrees F (10 degrees to 40 degrees C) * Storage temperature: -40 degrees to 116.6 degrees F (-40 degrees to 47 degrees C) * Relative humidity: 5% to 95% noncondensing * Maximum altitude: 10,000 ft. (3,048m) System Software Requirements ---------------------------- Requires System 7.1.2 for Power Macintosh or later and the accompanying System Enabler.
