    Where is this CPU used in volume? I thought it was kept because of some contracts with US army, that have systems that use it, and thus the manufacturer is forced to keep the part in stock.


    PA6Ts are used by many mil products (more than 10 different ones). E.g. by Lockheed Martin or Raytheon. There is demand for several 10s of thousand of these processors. No big volume production, but still volume production. The different wars and fear of terrorism/phantom menace keeps demand steady.

    Whenever you're sad just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
