45 Years Intel 8088
Hey folks,
45 years ago, exactly on June 1st, 1979, the i8088 was born. This date marks a unique milestone in the x86 CPU history.
Let´s explore this milestone a bit more in detail together. In this video I talk about the CPU evolution of the 70s and early 80s starting with Intel´s first microprocessor. The 8088 is an 8-bit version of the 8086. IBM chose this CPU due to several reasons that I will touch in the video. As a result, the 8088 can be regarded as THE grandfather of all PC processors having been used in the original IBM PC and IBM XT. From then on, x86 CPUs were set as standard and still is!
I will also decap an i8088 and look at the microstructures using my metallurgical microscope. The microstructures of the CPU were identified with the reference of Ken Shirriff´s blog about the 8088 (Ken Shirriff's blog: 8088 (righto.com).
I also could make a quick stitch of the processor using my 4x objective (+2x optical lense) resulting in 50 pictures to be stitched.
I hope you enjoy this birthday video dedicated to the Intel 8088!

XBOX Classic Teardown
มุมมอง 1.2K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
Hey folks, Following up on my promise to tear down my XBOX (see the Pentium 3 - 25 years anniversary video), I finally managed to get it done! The XBOX contains a special Pentium III Coppermine version which I wanted to add to my collection, and I had purchased a cheap XBOX from the flea market just for this purpose. When I came around to test the console (thanks Thomas for the video cable!), t...

BNISE microscope for CPU silicon die analysis
I wanted to mention its reference to Germany but you have mentioned before me😅
Omg, I thought I was watching a +10K subscribers channel...
Is it possible to open plastic package chips without acid?
Yes, only heat gun starting at 400 to 450 degrees and the epoxy gets brittle and you can retrieve the silicon die. It takes some experience and practise though.
What exactly does this represent? I'm just wondering if you happen to know
It is representing the chip function. The ram with two heads is a dual RAM that is controlled by the shepherd.
what the Hell?
I'm speechless.
When trying to heat something, it helps not putting it in highly thermo-conducting material 😂. Also, that poor 8088 😭.
I remember being at a Microsoft developers’ conference in 1994 where Bill Gates said at the keynote that the age of 32 bit processors was HERE: Intel was cranking out millions of Pentium processors “and they’re not going to let them sit in the warehouses” (maybe “on the shelves”?) Anyway, the call to action was clear: Win32 or bust. And, for the next decade or so, he was spot on.
Came for the history lesson, stayed for the awesome music and images. Wouldn't mind if the video was a bit longer!
Well, that was definitely an egg!
The first computer I bought with my own money was a packard-bell 486. It was running windows 3.1 and I spent a LOT of time in front of that glorious VGA monitor!

Title is grammatically incorrect.
Damn, I missed the anniversary. I have a copy of Emu8088, I could have written something in it to celebrate. Nothing fancy, since I've only dabbled in it. But I could probably make something to output a celebratory message in text.
Shows the test of time people are still using them to this day and I still have one or two kicking around someplace
Please pull thr black part off of the gpu
Now you need to get 1,024
HP's silicon artwork was made using through-silicon vias, a technology which has only found practical use in recent years.
Holy shit I love this channel. I miss these days
i got 8088.. not sure if i have 8086 but i do have 80186 .. 286 386.. 486.. P1..P2..P3..P4 and some more
That IBM machine in the background looks beautiful. Good save from the bin man
I had a 550mhz slot P3. I also had 2x 800mhz cumine p3 chips on a mobo. It was a sweet computer for the time.
Very good, I have subscribed. In the Evolution table I couldn't find one that I have here, the Intel RapidCad.
Thanks, yes I focussed on common CPUs, the RAPIDCAD is more a 386 upgrade FPU solution. I actually don’t have it!
The 4004 wasn't the world's first CPU. It was the first commercially available CPU. The first CPU was part of a chipset for the f14 tomcat in 1969.
Never even realized that the original Pentium has a HUGE die.
I rember those 600MHz EB marked, i don't know what they done, but speed of applications and network transfer went through the roof
Such an underrated channel, I need to check your other anniversary videos as well.
Agreed. Wholeheartedly. I just stumbled across this, myself and was wondering where it's been all my life.
What do you mean more than 100mhz FSB can only be used with PGA370 systems? I certainly have a Slot 1 600EB.
Got it, yes that 600EB in deed is a Coppermine 133 MHz FSB slot 1 CPU!
Quality content mate
Yes, the Siemens Nixdorf computers. One model out of the Scenic line was my first PC back in the 90's. With this designed blue colored case and crt. Everything integrated, with a gameport on the front(!) of the case. Fondly memories of it, playing lots of dos and early win95 stuff. Today this model is rare seen on the flea market. Great video man, thanks for the memories!
And to this day, Intel CPU's still startup in real mode.
Enjoyed this ... I look foward to checking out your channel. Thanks. Subscribed. Cheers
My first PC was a 386 SX with 4 MB of RAM. Another World :)
In the UK , that vice you use is branded as "Stanley" which is a classic old English tool company... what brand does yours have? Came for the classic chips and got distracted by 21st century marketing... sorry.
Yes it is a Stanley! Never failed me sofar!
People who didn't come to computers until micros don't apreciate how remarkable the 8088 was. Prior to that cpu width and memory width was always the same. 32 bit bit mainframes had 32 bit wide memory, 16 bit mini compuers had 16 bit wide memory. The 8088 was the first processor to separate cpu width and memory width.
The only 286 based machine I've ever used is a Tandy 1000 TX - spent most of it's life running DeskMate and various DOS games.
The 8 bit bus actually doesn't reduce the chips performance by 1/2. Due to the chips internal fetch queue and the fact that it takes several clock cycles to perform each instruction (super scalar processors didn't arrive until the Pentium), means that the 8 bit cpu can almost catch up with the operations of the 16 bit. It DOES depend on the actual instruction mix, but the actual performance of the 8088 is a bit better than 50% of the 8086. It's close enough to justify the lower cost of the 8088 vs the performance of the 8086, especially if one can run at a higher clock speed. IBM was initially specing a PC design using the 8085 processor, but Bill Gates at Microsoft suggested that they use the 8088 instead, pointing out the greater memory addressing, and that software development for the newer processor would not cost any more than for the 8085. Big Blue took his suggestion to heart, and the rest is history.
I will not hairsplit over this as there is enough margin (the instruction mix). Thanks for listening so carefully!
@@cpu_duke I never tried to decap a ceramic lid package. I didn't realize that was so easy to do, I' have decaped the metal lid types on eproms and rams (did you know you can use decaped drams as simple image sensors?)
The 486 can reach, in optimal conditions, one clock cycle per instruction.
I still have many of these old chips
Ive absently wondered why the og xbox was so big... But seeing the disk drive and 3.5" hdd side by side like that... it all makes sense.
oh neat I thought I was a little younger than this chip. but I'm a little older! Hugely important chip. Arguably more critical to the platform as a whole than the 8086 itself.
Gross! U old as F. I'm slightly older than the chip too. :( Great memories playing games on the 8088!
This guy cares about intel more than intel itself 😅
Great Video, man! This stitch looks cool, how do you do this?
It’s quite tedious. You take many pictures very accurately next to each other, „scanning“ the die in a zig zag fashion. I use ICE software to stitch it to a large canvas.
If the delidded one still works, try cleaning it up and putting a glass cap on. That would make a great centerpiece for a display build.
Interesting idea. But Incident light might create a noise issues since semiconductors emit light but also absorb it.
😱 barbarian, broke good CPU
New Sub; Detroit, Michigan, US Well Done Sir! this was a great video! now do the 80186 LOL WAsnt Happy to See that 8088 to Loose its Lid. I Would have given it a New Home LOL
The CerDip is not particularly rare. Got 3 for 16 British Pounds including shipping. Kept 2 in my collection…
nice video
The 8088 powered the first PC and was absolutely important because of that - People say x86 is "old and busted" - I say it's durable and capable of evolving with the times - bet it will be with us for a hundred years !
Back in the day, I considered the Z80, 6502 or 6800 to be "vastly superior" to the 8080.... but where are the 64 bit versions of all those "better" chips today?
@@edgeeffect The superior CDP1802 led the way, with its register-rich, flexible architecture, which led to RISC, ARM, and some of the most powerful 64 bit CPUs today. Of course, if you want more, the PowerPC line is still going strong and offering 128-bit architectures. It too has RISC heritage going back to RCA's humble 1802.
@@johnrehwinkel7241 ARM is not RISC. This is a deception. ARM has dedicated instructions for converting Java Script floats to integers, it has SIMD instructions which are distinctly a CISC thing that were introduced in the Intel Pentium with the MMX instructions, and ARM v8 has more instructions in its ISA than probably any CISC chip from the 1980s and definitely more than the original Intel Pentium. I had counted by hand the instructions from the Intel Programmer's manual for the Pentium versus modern ARM. I would also like to state that modern CPUs do not spend most of their chip area on the logic. Even a fully fledged Ryzen CPU's chip area is mostly cache and not the logic. There is no advantage for someone to choose ARM over x86 in the desktop, laptop, or server arena. Power efficiency? If you see ARM do better than x86 in energy efficiency it's because they either have better manufacturing at their disposal such as when Apple reserves newest technology from TSMC so AMD can't get their hands on it or the comparison makes no sense. For example, comparing a mobile chip with a desktop chip is silly because both Intel and AMD have established power consumption of 65 watts or higher on their desktop chips. Their laptop chips easily go as low as 6 watts such as the Intel N100 and if you undervolt they can go even lower. The Steam Deck is one of those devices where you can lower the power consumption to just 5 watts and games still perform ok. If anyone wants to learn more they can check out my video on CISC vs RISC on my channel.
My first machine was a 5150 and I learned assembler on it. I remember thinking what a useless instruction XLAT was back then. I just looked it up and it still exists in modern x86 chips. That alone tells me we need to move on from x86. God knows how much other junk there is sitting in that instruction set now.
@@WDUSNBMHHU From what I've read a lot of those old, seldom used instructions are handled by microcode instead of having dedicated hardware - the transistor budget for keeping the backwards compatibility cooties around is a very small percentage - just like legacy x86 decode is generally - Most things get decoded into micro-ops that handle everything now - the first generation Pentium was the last hard wired x86 machine - the P6 core in the Pentium Pro changed everything.
Zeus was stunned.
It changed the world.
