Intel 80386sx


processor
A lower-speed version of the Intel 80386. It uses a 16-bit data bus instead of a 32-bit data bus. It has a 24-bit address bus. It is faster than the 286, and more importantly, like the full-size 386, provides more flexibility in running existing DOS applications. Intel’s version runs at 16 MHz, while AMD’s can run at up to 33 MHz. It comes in a PFP package.

  • Intel 8080

    processor The successor to the Intel 8008. The 8080 had a 16-bit address bus and an 8-bit data bus. It had seven 8-bit registers (six which could also be combined as three 16-bit registers), a 16-bit stack pointer to memory which replaced the 8008’s internal stack and a 16-bit program counter. It also had 256 […]
