Acronym for Paged Memory-Management Unit.

This processing unit on Macs allows use of programs Virtual Memory and RAM Doubler by intelligently regulating how memory is used. It was integrated into the processor on Macs starting with the '030s, but you can add a separate PMMU chip to the '020 based Mac II.
