Comparison of Intel Microprocessor


8086, 386, 486, Pentium II

Introduction
Computer technology has made incredible progress in the past
half century. In 1945, there were no stored-program computers.
Today, a few thousand dollars will purchase a personal
computer that has more performance, more main memory, and
more disk storage than a computer bought in 1965 for $1
million. During the first 25 years of electronic computers, both
forces made a major contribution; but beginning in about 1970,
computer designers became largely dependent upon integrated
circuit technology. The late 1970s saw the emergence of the
microprocessor.

• What is a microprocessor ?

2
The Intel 8086 Microprocessor

It is a 16-bit microprocessor chip available in speeds of


8MHz, 10MHz, and 12MHz.

It can address 1 Mb of data with only 16-bit address.


This is accomplished by segmenting memory into
separate 64K groups of data. Hardware and
instructions integral to the 8086 control each 64K
group.

• Memory Structure
• Data storage in 8086 memory
• Paragraphs
• Program Segmentation and Segment Registers
• Hardware Registers
• Flags
• Input/Output (I/O) Structure

4
Intel 386 Microprocessor
It is an entry-level 32-bit microprocessor designed for single-
user applications and operating systems such as MS-DOS and
Windows.
Base Architecture the Intel 386 consists of three major
components:
• a central processing unit (CPU)
• a memory management unit
-- segmentation unit
-- the paging mechanism
the Intel has two modes of operation: Real Address Mode
(Real Mode), and Protected Virtual Address Mode (Protected
Mode).
• a bus interface

Intel 386 Microprocessor (continued)
• Instruction Set
The instruction set is divided into nine categories of
operations
• Addressing Modes
The Intel 386 provides a total of 11 addressing modes
for instructions to specify operands
• Memory organization
– I/O Space
– Real Mode Architecture
– Protected Mode Architecture

Intel 486 microprocessor

The Intel 486 CPU offers the highest performance for


DOS, OS/2, Windows, and UNIX system V/Intel 386
applications. Its 100% binary compatible with the Intel
386 CPU.

Summary
 The Intel 8086 It is a 16-bit architecture, with
all internal registers 16 bits wide.
 The Intel 80386 were included a 32-bit data bus
structure and the ability to address up to 4GB of
memory.
 The Intel 80486 was a 32-bit data bus structure,
and the ability to address up to 64GB of
memory.
 The Pentium II processor was a 7.5 million-
transistor, it incorporates the Pentium pro and
the Intel MMX technology, which is designed
specifically to process video, audio and graphics
data efficiently.
