    Ch# 03: Organization of the IBM Personal computers

    The Intel 8086 family of microprocessors:


     The IBM personal computer family consists of the IBM PC, XT, PC AT, PS/1 AND PS/2
    models.
     They are all based on the Intel 8086 family of microprocessors.
     8086 microprocessor family includes: 8086, 8088, 80186, 80188, 80286, 80386, 80386SX,
    80486 and 80486SX.

    1. The 8086 and 8088 Microprocessors:


     Intel introduced the 8086 in 1978
     It is the first 16-bit Microprocessor designed by intel
     The 8088 was introduced in 1979
     Internally both 8086 and 8088 are same but externally the 8086 has a 16-bit data
    bus while the 8088 has an 8-bit data bus.
     The 8086 has a faster clock rate, and thus its performance is better.
     8088 is less expensive that’s why IBM chose 8088 over 8086 for the original PC.
     The 8086 and 8088 has same instruction set (basic sets)
     Addressable memory: 1 MB
     8088 is used in PC, and PC XT
    2. The 80186 and 80188 Microprocessors:
     The 80186 and 80188 are enhanced version of 8086 and 8088
     The advantage of the 80186 and 80188 is that they combine on a single chip 15–
    20 of the 8086–8088 series system components
     They can also execute some new instructions called the extended instruction set.
     There are no significant advantages of these microprocessor and were soon
    overshadowed by the development of 80286.
     Used in some PC-compatible laptop models.
    3. The 80286 Microprocessor:
     It was introduced in 1982.
     It is also a 16-bit microprocessor
     It can operate faster than 8086 (12.5 MHz versus 10 MHz)
     It has more addressable memory (16 MB)
     It can execute too large programs
     Can perform 2 modes of operation: Real address mode and protected virtual
    address mode.
     In real address mode it behaves like the 8086 and programs for the 8086 can be
    executed
     In Protected mode the 80286 supports multitasking and memory protection
     Used in PC AT, AND PS/1

    Multitasking: Ability to execute several programs at same time.

    Memory Protection: Ability to protect memory used by one program from the action
    of another program.

    4. The 80386 and 80386SX Microprocessor:


     Introduced in 1985
     It is a 32-bit Microprocessor
     Much faster than 80286
     High clock rate (up to 33 MHz)
     Can operate real and protected mode
     In real mode it behaves like an 8086
     In protected mode, it can emulate 80286, can address 4 GB of physical memory
    and 64 TB of virtual memory
     It also has virtual 8086 mode designed to run multiple 8086 applications.
     The 80386SX is same as 80386 but it has only 16-bit data bus.
    5. THE 80486 and 80486SX Microprocessor:
     Introduced in 1989
     32-bit microprocessor
     Fastest and most powerful processor in the family
     It incorporates the functions of the 386 together with those of other support
    chips.
     Other support chips include 80387 numeric processors, which performs floating
    point number operations and 8 KB cache memory that serves as fast memory area
    to buffer data.
     It is 3 times faster than 80386.
     80486SX is similar to 80486 but without the floating point processor

    REGISTERS:
    Registers are fastest storage area / location OR Registers are record or collection of information.
    Registers are quickly accessible by CPU as they are built into CPU.

    In 1971 intel 4004 develop a chip. This is the first CPU which was launched in 1971 in this CPU
    registers used for the 1st time it is develop by Federrico Faggin. He named it register because
    registers are used to collect information.

    Registers are classified according to the function they perform


     Data registers: Hold data for an operation
     Address Registers: Hold the address of an instruction or data
     Status Register: Keeps the current status of the processor

    Types of Registers:
    The 8086 has 4 general data registers

    1) The address registers are divided into Segment, Pointer and Index registers.
    2) The Status registers is called the Flag register

    In total there are 14 16-bit registers

    1. Data registers: AX, BX, CX, DX


    If the data are stored in registers, the instructions is faster. The high and low bytes of the
    data registers can be accessed separately. The high byte of AX, BX, CX and DX are called
    AH, BH, CH and DH. And the low bytes are called AL, BL, CL, DL.
    AX (Accumulator Register) : it is used in arithmetic and logic operations also in taking
    Input/output
    BX (Base Register): holds address of data
    CX (Count Register): counts how many times a program can run, used in loops
    DX (Data Register): holds data for output, used in multiplication and division and also used
    in I/O operations
    2. Segment Registers:
    Segments are specific areas defined in a program for containing data, code and stack
    Memory Segment:
     A memory segment is a block of 2^16 consecutive memory bytes
     Segment is identified by a segment number starting with 0
     A segment number is 16 bits
     Highest segment number is FFFFh
     A memory location is specified by giving an offset
     With a 64-kb segment the offset can be given as a 16- bit numbers

    Segment: offset address:

    A memory location may be specified by providing a segment number and an offset,


    written in a form segment :offset. This is known as logical address

    Program Segments:

     A typical machine language programs consists of instructions (code or data.


     There is also a data structure called the Stack.
     The program’s code, data and stack are loaded into different memory segments
     CS (Code segments): holds address of code segment
     DS (Data segments): holds address of data segment
     SS (Stack segments): holds address of stacks segment
     ES (Extra Segment) : holds address of data segment
    3. Pointer and Index Registers:
     these registers normally point to memory location
     unlike segment registers the pointer and index registers can be used in arithmetic
    and other operations
     SP (Stack pointer): points current top of stack
     BP (Base pointer): used primarily to access data on the stack
     SI (Source Index): points to memory locations
     DI (Destination Index): same function as SI
    4. Instruction Pointer:
     IP holds the next instruction
     IP is updated each time an instruction is executed so that it will point the next
    instruction
     The IP cannot be directly manipulated by an instruction
    5. Flags Register:
     The purpose of the flag register is to indicate the status of the microprocessor
     It does this by setting of individual bits called flags
     There are 2 kinds of flags
    1) Status Flags: the status flags reflect the result of an instruction executed by
    the processor
    2) Control Flags: enable and disable certain operations of the processor
