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!

    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.

    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.

  • @KennethScharf
    @KennethScharf 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    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.

      @@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.
