The 8087 Numeric Data Processor is an adjunct to the 8086/8088 microprocessor, that gives the 8086/8088 floating point capability and 8 more registers. The 8087 integrates itself with the 8086/8088 in such a way that the pair actually becomes one processor, appearing to have the extra instructions and registers to start with.Since it was an optional add-on to the system, many run-time libraries would detect whether or not the 8087 was present, and either use it or emulate it.This separation of functionality into two chips was maintained in the product line up until the 80386DX and 80486, although the NDP was called something else (such as the 80287, and 80387) at which point the NDP became a permanent part of the instruction set.
8087
The 8086/8088 is the general purpose processor. The 8087 is the math co-processor for the 8086/8088.
The Young and the Restless - 1973 1-8087 was released on: USA: 7 March 2005
The 8086 is not a co-processor. The 8087 is. The 8087 is intended to be coupled to an 8086/8088 to do math co-processing.
Abstract,etc
The co-processor on an 8086/8088 is the 8087 math co-processor. The motherboard will be designed with an extra socket for the 8087, which then integrates with the 8086/8088 to make a single unified processor.
Microprocessor consists of different types of registers. They special purpose registers, general purpose registers, address registers, floating point registers and constant registers.
The area of Ahmedabad, including its talukas, is approximately 8087 square kilometres.
Floor registers are not the registers you find checking out at a grocery store. Floor registers are the cover from the heating vent in a home or business.
A computer has address registers and data registers. The address registers usually keeps the computer informed about where certain data stores are kept.
registers are five types.
