ABOUT THIS BOOK
This
book
describes the unique Intel 8088
microprocessor, the outstanding choice for 8-
bit microcomputer applications requiring
both
high performance
and
low cost.
The Intel
8088
is
the most powerful 8-bit
microprocessor available today, yet as easy
to
use as other 8-bit microprocessors designers
have used for years.
Chapter 1 introduces the
8088
CPU with its
key features
that
give it high performance,
with
overviews
on
the following topics:
• Pipelined architecture
• Register resources
• Memory addressing
It
Instruction set
• System interfacing
It
Functional extensions
Also an iAPX
188
overview
is
given.
Chapter 2 provides a detailed discussion
of
the programmer's architecture including:
• Register set
• Addressing modes
It
Instruction set
• Assembly language
At
the end
of
Chapter
2
is
a complete set
of
instruction set reference pages
that
describe
each instruction fully, one
at
a time.
Chapter 3 provides necessary information for
the
hardware designer
to
incorporate the
8088 microprocessor
into
cost effective
iAPX*
88
microcomputer systems. Included
is
a discussion
of
the following:
• Bus Timing
and
Status
• Bus Interface including interface to
MUX
bus devices
• Memory
and
Peripheral Interface
• Wait States
*iAPX stands for Intel Advanced Processor System
• Interrupts
• Direct Memory Access
• Reset
• Building Large Systems
Chapter 4 gives some specific 8088 system
design examples
for the simple
to
complex
systems:
• Multiplexed bus small systems
• Demultiplexed systems with standard mem-
ories
and
peripherals
•
SlOO
Bus System
•
iAPX
88
based
CRT
• MULTIBUS™ System
The
Supplement provides
an
introduction
to
microcomputer concepts
and
terminology
including:
•
What
is
a microcomputer?
..
What's inside the CPU?
•
What
are machine cycles?
•
What
are addressing modes?
The
Appendix
contains the following
data
sheets
and
comparison benchmark reports:
