 Intel 80386 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The predecessor of the 80386 was the Intel 80286, a 16-bit processor with a segment-based memory management and protection system.
The Intel 80386 is a microprocessor which was used as the central processing unit (CPU) of many personal computers from 1986 until 1994 and later.
Designed and manufactured by Intel, the i386 processor was taped-out in October of 1985.

 Intel 80286 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Intel 80286 (also called iAPX 286, for example in the Intel programmer's manual for the 286) is an x86-family 16-bit microprocessor that was introduced by Intel on February 1, 1982.
The 80286 performs more than twice the speed of its predecessor (the Intel 8086 and Intel 80186) per clock cycle.
Though real predcession may be argued, because the Intel 80186 was introduced earlier than 80286, though it wasn't commonly used in general personal computers.

The Intel 80386SX is to the 80386 as the original 8088 is to the 8086.
The Intel 80386 addresses 4 gigabytes of memory, compared with 1 megabyte possible on the 8088/8086.
The Intel 80486 microprocessor is essentially a new, very high-performance version of the 80386.

 A CPU History
In 1990, Intel released the 80386SL, which was basically an 855,00 transistor version of the 386SX processor, with ISA compatibility and power management circuitry.
The first four generations of Intel processor took on the "8" as the series name, which is why the technical types refer to this family of chips as the 8088, 8086, and 80186.
In 1988, Intel released the 386SX, which was basically a low-fat version of the 386.

Intel 8086 and 8088 ------------------- The Intel 8086 was released on June 6, 1978.
Intel 80386 ----------- Intel changed the world of computing when it introduced the 80386 microprocessor in June 16, 1985.
One major disadvantage to the two modes in the 80286 microprocessor was that the computer needed to be rebooted to change the operational mode.

The 80286 was introduced by Intel on February 1, 1982.
As the 80186/80188 CPUs were not really significant to personal computing, the 80286 was Intel's next step processor for micro computers.
Intel second-sourced the 80286 to ensure an adequate supply of chips to the computer industry.

All interaction between the 80286 and the 80287 processors on the hardware level is handled automatically by the 80286 and is transparent to the software.
When the emulator is combined as part of the systems software, the 80286 system with 80287 emulation and the 80286 with 80287 hardware are virtually indistinguishable to an application program.
The 80286 Processor Extension Data Channel and the hardware interface between the 80286 and 80287 processors are described in Chapter Six of the 80286 Hardware Reference Manual.

 Wikinfo X86
The Intel 80387 math co-processor was integrated into the next CPU in the series, the Intel 80486.
The architecture of Intel's 32-bit x86 processors is sometimes known as IA-32.
x86 or Intel 80x86 is the generic name of an architecture of microprocessors first developed and manufactured by Intel, also manufactured at various stages by AMD, Cyrix, NEC, IDT, Transmeta (that uses it in PDAs too, see Crusoe) (arguably) and sundry other makers at various stages in its nearly 25-year history.

 The Segment Descriptor Cache
As early as the 80286, all Intel x86 processors have included an entity called the "segment-descriptor cache" which works behind the scenes, hidden from you.
It is used for all memory accesses by all Intel x86 processors since the 80286.
From the 80286 to 80486, the meaning of "segment-descriptor cache" was unambiguous, referring to an internal microprocessor structure that stores the internal representation of the segment registers.

Because Intel discovered that it couldn't trademark its CPU numbers, it shifted to a naming scheme, starting with the Pentium processors.

 Introduction to Protected-Mode
In view of the limitations of the 80286 design, Intel released its next innovation known as the 80386.
It seems that Intel engineers assumed that once you were running in protected-mode, you'll never want to go back to a lowly real-mode environment.
Another deficiency of the 80286 was related to the maximum size of segments.

In protected mode, the 80286 or 80386 microprocessor adds a series of features that allow it to safely and reliably expand the number of programs the computer can be working on at one time.
Although a preferred embodiment of the present invention is intended for use with a personal computer based on the INTEL 80286 or 80386 microprocessor 15, with an INTEL 8042 keyboard controller 30, it will be realized that the present invention is not intended to be so limited.

Summary: Optimizing code for 8088, 80286, 80386 and 80486 microprocessors is difficult because the chips use significantly different memory architectures and instruction execution times.
Code cannot be optimized for the 80x86 family; rather, code must be designed to produce good performance on a range of systems or optimized for particular combinations of processors and memory.

AMD also claims that Toshiba executives told them that Intel's financial inducements with them amount to "cocaine, but they were hooked because engaging with AMD would jeopardize Intel market development funds estimated to be worth $25 million to $30 million per quarter."
