Product: PowerMasterPro Accelerator

Available for: PowerPC 7300, 7500, 7600, 8500, 8600, 9500 & 9600
And most of the following Mac clones: PowerComputing®, PowerWave®, PowerTower®
PowerCenter® & UMAX® SuperMac S900

World's Only Single 604e CPU Card Upgradable to Dual Processing

PowerMasterPro






Upgrade your Power Mac or Mac clone with the ability of single or dual processing capabilities. Buy a PowerMasterPro with a single processor "grand-daughtercard" installed on the accelerator today and later add a second grand-daughter card to take advantage of faster speeds and dual processing capabilities. The grand-daughter cards easily plug into the sockets on the accelerator board and offer you the greatest flexibility in upgrading your computer to take advantage of dual-processing applications and Macintosh Operating Systems.

PowerMaster Granddaughter Card


Next Generation PowerPC Engineering: The MicroMac PowerMasterPro accelerator introduces a revolutionary concept: Upgradability of the 604e processors on the accelerator card as your needs grow.

Instead of having the processor chip soldered onto the accelerator card, the PowerMasterPro accelerator employs a small user-installable plug in board, called a grand-daughtercard, with a 604e processor. The PowerMasterPro allows you to install one or two grand-daughter cards with 604e processors. The accelerator plugs into the Processor Card Slot on the logic board of your Mac or Mac clone.



User-Selectable Bus Clock Frequencies
User-Defined Bus Speeds: The clock generation circuitry of the PowerMasterPro produces a bus frequency from 40MHz to 67MHz, easily user-selectable in 1MHz steps through the adjustable speed thumbwheels on the board. This bus frequency is common to both processors. Each processor, however, can run at user-selectable, individual speed settings. For example, today you can start with a PowerMasterPro with one 250MHz processor and later add a second processor running at 350MHz, bringing the speed for dual processing applications to 600MHz. The speed thumbwheels are easily accessible on the PowerMasterPro and do not require you to remove the accelerator from the logic board in order to adjust the speed settings.


System and Tools Requirements: PowerPC Macintosh 7300, 7500, 7600, 8500, 8600, 9500 or 9600 and most of the following Mac clones: PowerComputing®, PowerWave®, PowerTower® PowerCenter® or UMAX® SuperMac S900 with System 7.5 or later, optional anti-static grounding strap (available at most computer hardware stores) and flat-blade screwdriver.

Installation: Unplug the current daughterboard installed on the logic board of your Power Mac or Mac clone and install the PowerMasterPro in its place.

MicroMac Delivers: PowerMasterPro accelerator board, Utilities disks and Installation Manual.
