Introduction of Intel

Processors

Intel 4004 (First


Microprocessor) : 1969
First Microprocessor
Revolution from fixed functionality
to variable
Handled 4 bit data
Had 46 instructions
Allowed 4KB of program code and
1KB of data.

Intel 8-bit processors


They are 8008, 8080 and 8085
They were used
in many early microcomputers
in applications such as electronic
instruments and printers

Intel 16-bit processors


They included 8086, 8088 and 80286

Intel 32-bit processors


They include 80386 and 80486.
First they introduced 80386DX, 80386SX
and 80386SL.
It was compatible with 8088/8086/80286
80386DX(DX refers to floating point
capability)
80386SX(SX refers to 16-bit data bus)
It offers 24 bit address bus(16MB physical
m/m)

80386SL(offered several power


management options and sleep modes to
conserve battery power for laptops)

Intel 32-bit processor 80486

80486DX Improved with memory


cache and math coprocessor
80486SX Does not have math
coprocessor
Clock doubler/tribler were also
released (75% faster than the
comparable non-doubled processor)
DX2-66 33MHz
DX2-50 25MHz
DX4-100 25MHz
DX4-75 25MHz

80386DX

Features of 80386DX
It supports 8/16/32 bit data operands
It has 32-bit internal registers
It supports 32-bit data bus and 32-bit
non-multiplexed address bus
It supports
Physical Address of 4GB
Virtual Address of 64TB
Maximum Segment size of 4GB

Features of 80386DX
It operates in 3 different modes
Real
Protected
Virtual 8086

MMU provides virtual memory,


paging and 4 levels of protection
Clock Frequency : 20,25 and 33MHz
It has 132 pin package

Architecture of 80386
UQ: Draw the block diagram of the
80386 DX Processor and explain
each block in brief

10

Architecture of
80386

Three Sections:
Bus Interface units
Central Processing
Unit
Memory
Management Unit
11

Architecture of 80386
The internal architecture of 80386 is
divided into three sections:
1.Central Processing Unit
2.Memory Management Unit
3.Bus Interface unit

12

Central Processing Unit

13

Central Processing Unit


The CPU is further divided into:
Instruction Unit
Execution Unit

Instruction Unit:
It decodes the opcode bytes received from
the 16-byte instruction queue and arranges
them into a 3-decoded instruction queue.
After decoding it is passed to control section
for deriving necessary control signals
14

Central Processing Unit


Execution Unit:
It has 8 general purpose and 8 special
purpose registers which either handles
data or addresses
The 64-bit barrel shifter increases the
speed of all shift, rotate, multiply and
divide operations
The multiply/divide logic implements the
bit-shift-rotate algorithms to complete
the operations in minimum time(Even
32bit multiplication is done in 1s)
15

Central Processing Unit

Element of the EU

Arithmetic/logic unit (ALU)


Performs the operation identified by ADD, SUB, AND,
etc.

Flags register
Holds status and control information

General-purpose registers
Holds address or data information

Control ROM
Contains microcode sequences that define
operations performed by machine instructions

Special multiply, shift, and barrel shift hardware


Accelerate multiply, divide, and rotate operations
16

Memory Management Unit

17

Memory Management Unit


MMU consists of a segmentation unit and
paging unit
Segmentation Unit:
It allows the use of two address components segment and offset for relocability and
sharing of data
It allows a maximum segment size of 4GB
It provides a 4-level protection mechanism
for protecting and isolating systems code
and data from those of application program
18

Memory Management Unit


The limit and attribute PLA checks segment
limits and attributes at segment level to avoid
invalid accesses to code and data in memory
segment.

Paging Unit
It organizes physical memory in terms of pages
of 4KB size
It works under the control of segmentation unit
It converts linear addresses into physical
addresses
The control and attribute PLA checks privileges
at page level.
19

Bus Interface
Unit

It has a prioritizer to
resolve the priority of
various bus requests.
This controls the access
of the bus
The address driver drives
the bus enable and
address signals A2 A31.
The pipeline/bus size
unit handles the control
signals for pipelining and
dynamic bus sizing units
20

Bus Interface Unit


The data buffers interface the
internal data bus with system bus
