Why implement 8086 processor to 8087 processor?
The 8086/8088 is the general purpose processor. The 8087 is the math co-processor for the 8086/8088.
What is meant by co processor configuraiton in 8086?
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.
What represent 8086?
8086 means its a 8 bit processor and 86 is its model number
What are the different PC motherboards compatible with 8086 processor?
No remotely modern motherboard is compatible with an 8086 processor. The old IBM PC clones from the early to mid 1980s would have been the only motherboards to support the 8086.
8086 micro processor memory segmentation and advantage and rules?
hhh
What is the maximum and minimum signed number that can be stored in a memory location in the 8086 processor?
The 8086/8088 processor is a 16 bit processor. In a 16 bit two's complement notation, the maximum number is 0x7FFF, or 32767, while the minimum number is 0x8000, or -32768.
Is Pentium 4 is Intel 8086 microprocessor?
No. The Pentium IV is not an Intel 8086. It is closer to the 80586.
Which steps follow 8086 after reset?
The processor executes a JMP FFFF:0000
A generic name for Intel processors released after the original 8086 processor is?
x86
Can 8085 CPU replace 8086 CPU?
No. The 8086 has instructions not present in the 8085. The 8086 was marketed as "source compatible" with the 8085, meaning that there was a translator program which could convert assembly language code for the 8085 into assembly language code for the 8086. However, this does not mean that the compiled 8086 assembly code would then run on an 8085; among other things, the 8086 was a true 16-bit processor, as opposed to the 8085 which was an 8-bit processor that supported a few 16-bit operations.
When did the 8088 processor come out?
Somewhat after the 8086, which was somewhat after the 8085. The 8086 was developed between mid 1976 and early 1978, while the 8088 was developed in 1979.
Why 8086micro processors are called co- procossers?
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.
