Microprocessor
Generations
The First Microprocessor
• Intel created the first microprocessor 4004 in 1971.
• Ran at a clock speed of 108KHz
• Contained 2,300 transistors and was built on a
10-micron process.
• Then came the Z-80 by Zilog in 1976 used in
TRS-80
• 6502 by MOS Technologies used in Apple-I and II.
The First PC
• In 1981 IBM introduced the IBM PC, which was
based on a 4.77MHz Intel 8088 processor running
the Microsoft Disk Operating System (MS-DOS) 1.0
– 30,000 transistor at 4.77MHz
– 16 bit internal registers (IA-16) /8 bit external data bus
– 20 bit address bus could address upto ________Bytes?
• All Processors are backward compatible, like P4,
AMD Athlon, etc.

First Generation (P1)
8088
• A 40 pin microprocessor with the attributes of an 8-bit
and 16-bit processor. Internally it works with 16 bits
but data bus is 8-bits.
• 20-bit address bus - capable of holding 1 Meg
memory.
• Ran in real mode only
• Companion Coprocessor - 8087
– 8086
• Same as above only data bus is 8-bits.
Second Generation (P2)
80286
–
–
–
–
68 pin chip in various packages.
Backwards compatible with 8088 but much faster.
True 16-bit microprocessor.
Designed for multi-user, multi-task.
• Has special memory protection/management circuitry that
protects the various running tasks from each other and the
operating system.
– Operates in two modes:
• Real Mode - runs single tasks, addresses REAL memory up to 1
Meg.
• Protected Mode - runs multiple tasks, address up to 16 Meg
physical memory, plus it can address virtual memory.
– Virtual memory is really hard disk space being used as RAM.
Second Generation (P2)
80286
• Was available in different clock speeds.
• Companion Coprocessor - 80287
Third Generation (P3)
80386DX
– 32-bit (internally & externally) successor to
80286, 132-pins
– Had to do 16-bit and 8-bit I/O data transfers to
keep it compatible with older software and
peripherals.
– Could switch between real and protected memory
without a reboot.
Third Generation (P3)
This advanced memory management allow for ROM
shadowing, moving code out of ROM into faster
RAM.
– New addressing mode was developed called virtual
mode.
• Made the 80386 appear like multiple XT processors so multiple
programs could run at once.
• 80386SX
– 100 pin chip.
– Internally the same as a 80386DX, externally had 24-bit
address and 16-bit data bus.
Third Generation (P3)
Other Flavours of 80386
– 80386SL: used in laptops, had lower (L) power
consumption. Had external 32-bit address bus
like DX, but external 16-bit data bus like SX.
– AM80386SX and DX: AMD manufactured clone.
SX was like the SL.
Fourth Generation (P4)
80486DX:
– 168 pin
– Included
• math coprocessor
– synchronous with main processor and executes in fewer
cycles than previous math coprocessors
• 8KB Level 1 memory cache
– 90-95% zero wait states
• Reduced instruction-execution time
– average of two clock cycles per instruction compared to
previous of more than four clock cycles needed
• Burst-mode memory cycles
Fourth Generation (P4)
Other Flavours of 80486:
– 80486SX: same as DX except there is no
coprocessor. Companion coprocessor - 80487
– 80486DX2: the processor’s internal speed is
doubled.
– 80486DX4: the processor’s internal speed is
tripled.
– CX486SLC: Cyrix processor that is basically a
386SX.
– CX486DLC:Cyrix processor that is 486DX.
– CX486DRU2:Cyrix processor that is 486DX2.
Fourth Generation (P4)
AMD 486 (5x86)
• 486 that runs at 133MHz
• Some 486 motherboards support this chip
• Similar to Pentium 75
– AMD A80486DX2-80SV8B (40MHz x 2)
– AMD A80486DX4-100SV8B (33MHz x 3)
– AMD A80486DX4-120SV8B (40MHx x 3)
Fifth Generation (P5)
64-bit data bus
– 2 separate 8KB internal caches, 1 for instructions,
1 for data
– superscalar microprocessor, runs multiple
instructions simultaneously
• achieved by pipelining
– Pipelining breaks instruction cycle into small stages. Each
stage is capable of handling many instructions.
– Two pipelines in pentium, u-pipe and v-pipe
– Each pipeline has its own ALU
Pipelining
• Fetching and execution of each instruction is split
into many stages,
• all working in parallel.
• This allows the processing of up to five instructions
to be overlapped.
Pipelining
• In 8085 there was no pipelining.
• 8086 had enjoyed the first pipelining.
• In the 486 the pipeline stage is broken down even
further, to 5 stages as follows:
– 1. fetch (prefetch)
– 2. decode 1 (two stage decode)
– 3. decode 2
– 4. execute
– 5. register write-back (result goes to EAX)
pipelined vs. nonpipelined execution

heavily pipelining
• By heavily pipelining the fetching and
execution of instructions, many 486
instructions are executed in only 1 clock cycle
instead of in 3 clocks as in the 386.
