List of Macintosh models grouped by CPU type

A Motorola 68000 processor

This list of Macintosh models grouped by CPU type contains all CPUs used by Apple Inc. for their Macintosh computers. It is grouped by processor family, processor model, and then chronologically by Macintosh model.

Motorola 68000

Motorola 68000

A Motorola 68000 processor using DIPP packaging, as the early Macintosh models used

The Motorola 68000 was the first Apple Macintosh processor. It had 32-bit CPU registers, a 24-bit address bus, and a 16-bit data path; Motorola referred to it as a "16-/32-bit microprocessor".<ref "16/32">Motorola Literature Distribution, Phonenix, AZ (1992).

Motorola 68020

A Motorola 68020 processor

The Motorola 68020 was the first 32-bit Mac processor, first used on the Macintosh II. The 68020 had many improvements over the 68000, including an instruction cache; and was the first Mac processor to support a memory management unit, the Motorola 68851.

The Macintosh LC configured the 68020 to use a 16-bit system bus with ASICs that limited RAM to 10 MB (as opposed to the 32-bit limit of 4 GB).

Motorola 68030

A Motorola 68030 processor

The Motorola 68030 was the first Mac processor with an integrated memory management unit, allowing for virtual memory. Another improvement over the 68020 was the addition of a data cache.

Motorola 68040

A Motorola 68040 processor

The Motorola 68040 had improved per-clock performance compared to the 68030, as well as larger instruction and data caches, and was the first Mac processor with an integrated floating-point unit.

The MC68LC040 version of the microprocessor subtracted the floating-point unit and was less expensive.
