I know there is a relationship, but I'm not sure how fast a memory chip I need for a certain speed. More specifically, what speed memory chips do I need for a 10MHz 80286-10 and for a 4.77 MHz 8088 (true IBM PC)? (I'm using 100ns chips for the first one right now, I'm not sure of the second one) -Ching (email ctt31684@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu)
