(processor)The unique feature of the F100-L was that it had a completecontrol bus available for a coprocessor. Any instructionthe F100-L couldn't decode was sent directly to thecoprocessor for processing. Applications for coprocessors atthe time were limited, but the design is still used in modernprocessors, such as the National Semiconductor 32000 series.
