Question
Please write it for Intel 8086
Write a technical essay outlining the development and technical operation of one of the
following microprocessors:
• MOS Technology 6502
•
Zilog Z80
Intel 8086
ARMv8-A
Your essay should include diagrams and tables, and should include details of computer
systems where they have been used.
Useful Notes
Note that these are devices you can still purchase. Review what the processor's structure is,
what it does, how it does it, how it fit into the development of the processor scene at the
time, what computer devices it was actually used for and what superseded it. What were
the advantages of that device compared to its contemporaries? What were its main technical
advantages or disadvantages over others that were out at the time?
You can use online sources and/or books (not Wikipedia! Although Wiki pages are generally
ok), have a look at the relevant data sheets as well. Include citations/references (within text
and citation list at the end of the document) for the main sources you got information from
(including any datasheets).
Essays should be about 3-4 A4 pages (single spaced, 11pt font, inc. diagrams, references) and
uploaded to Moodle.
