 ISSUE DATE: 20-Jan-1999                            NOTIFICATION #:4346

 LAST BUY DATE: 21-Jan-2000                LAST SHIP DATE: 21-Jul-2000
 DESCRIPTION AND PURPOSE
 -----------------------
 Motorola is announcing the End-of-Life on the 604R

 product.  Recommended replacements
 include the XPC740PRX, XPC750PRX, and the upcoming G4 device.
 Additionally, a
 similar
 604 product is available from IBM.  Some of these replacements may
 require the
 customer
 to redesign their board.  This announcement affects the 604R in all
 revisions and
 at all
 speeds, and includes daughtercards.

 The 604R microprocessor products are being discontinued due to
 significant errata
 and
 minimal customer interest.  They are not considered a part of the
 long-term
 embedded
 PowerPC strategy.  These parts will be handled under standard
 End-of-Life
 procedures,
 allowing twelve months for Last Time Buy orders and an additional
 six months for
 Last
 Shipments.

 Customers must notify Motorola, in writing, within ninety days of
 notification, if
 they
 consider the discontinued product to be "Sole Source."  Motorola and
 the customer
 may
 negotiate an appropriate End-of-Life Buy period on these devices.

 POSSIBLE REPLACEMENT PARTS
 --------------------------
 The XPC740PRX device is pin-compatible and voltage-compatible

 with the 604R.
 IBM offers a 604R-class device that is pin-compatible.
