Sure you're not thinking of the K series? (KA: bare, KB: float, MC: float
+ MMU). IIRC they initially had a common die. The CA was the superscalar
core, and I don't think there were ever any floating-point or MMU
instructions among any of the superscalars (C and H series).

I think only the MC & MX had MMUs, and all the rest don't.

I have HP and Affinity X terminals that also use the CA. I've still never
seen an MC.
