  Intel 80286 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Intel 80286 is an x86-family 16-bit microprocessor that was introduced by Intel on February 1, 1982.
Initially released in 6 and 8 MHz editions, it subsequently scaled up to 20 MHz, and was widely used in IBM PC compatible computers during the mid 1980s to early 1990s.
Despite their market popularity, few desktop computers with a 80286 CPU still remain in use today.

 Lloyd Borrett - Computing - Articles - Which CPU Should You Purchase
IBM and Microsoft made an announcement at Comdex in November that their "Platform for the 90s" was to be based on the capabilities of the Intel 80386SX, 80386, 80486 and future Intel family microprocessors.
80286 based systems were delivering about 5-10 times the performance of, and cost about half as much as, early 8088/8086 systems.
As we saw the 80286 replace the 8088/8086, which in turn replaced the early 8-bit microprocessors, so shall we see the 386 family replace the 80286.

The 80286 processor came in a type of package that was not seen on the earlier processor chips.
The main advantage of the 80286 over previous chips was the added computing power, the chip had almost the same ISA as the 8088 and the 8086, but with additional hardware support for segmentation and memory protection.
The 80286 uses a 16 bit input/output path rather than an 8-bit path, and it has 24 address lines and a 16-MB physical address space.

THe 80286 processor has a 16-bit data bus and incorporates a memory management unit that allowed a limited amount of multitasking.
The 80286 only has a segmented MMU while the later processors add a paged MMU "behind" the segmented one.

 Excerpt from The advanced Intel Microprocessor
The 80286 microprocessor is available with a clock speed of 8, 10, or 12.5 MHz from Intel with other vendors supplying a 16 MHz version.
The 80286 is designed to operate at temperatures that range between 0C and + 70C.
Standard logic circuits have a maximum logic 0 voltage of 0.4 V, and the 80286 has a maximum logic 0 voltage of 0.45 V. This is a difference of 0.05 V. Table 7-2.

 Do you plan to provide 80286 or 80386 CPU's?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
It is possible that we would release an 80286 version of XTM - the 80286 emulation would run a little slower than the current 80186 product but may increase software compatibility.
However, you should note that the reason many programs need an 80286 or 80386 processor is because they need more memory space than they can access using the 1 megabyte address space of the basic 80186 architecture.
Adding an 80286 CPU emulation will not add any RAM to your Nokia or Psion machine, and we would not be able to support very much extended memory in XTM.

 The 80x86 Processor Family
The 80286 has two different types of operating mode: real address mode and protected address mode.
The real address mode was introduced in the 80286 to permit backward compatibility with the 80186 and the 8086 processors.
In the protected mode the 80286 uses 32 bits to address up to 1 gigabyte of memory.

The 80286 was introduced by Intel on February 1, 1982.
The 6 MHz 80286 is the CPU of the IBM AT (Advanced Technology), which also introduced a 16-bit motherboard and 16-bit expansion bus to the PC world.
The 80286 was typically made in 3 package versions, each with 68 contacts: a PGA-, CLCC- and a PLCC-package.

 13.1 80286 Code Executes as a Subset of the 80386
In general, programs designed for execution in protected mode on an 80286 execute without modification on the 80386, because the features of the 80286 are a subset of those of the 80386.
All the descriptors used by the 80286 are supported by the 80386 as long as the Intel-reserved word (last word) of the 80286 descriptor is zero.
The descriptors for data segments, executable segments, local descriptor tables, and task gates are common to both the 80286 and the 80386.

 Limitations of the IBM PC Architecture   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The 80286 is similar to the 8086 in concept.
Since the 80286 has a 16M byte address space, this memory is addressed linearly—no bank select hardware is necessary.
Like the 80286, the 80386 has a segmented architecture, and like the 80286, it has two execution modes: real and protected.

 Introduction to Protected-Mode
Another deficiency of the 80286 was related to the maximum size of segments.
In view of the limitations of the 80286 design, Intel released its next innovation known as the 80386.
A 32-bit address bus replaced the old 24-bit bus of the 80286 giving the user a total of 4GB physical address space, a third operating mode dubbed Virtual-Mode was implemented to support execution of old 8086 code while still running in a protected-mode environment, and, last but not least, Paging support was added.

 80386 Programmer's Reference Manual -- Section 13.3
With the 80286, any base and offset combination that addresses beyond 16M bytes wraps around to the first megabyte of the 80286 address space.
Other values that were invalid on for the 80286 may be valid for the 80386 because of the additional descriptor types defined by the 80386.
With the 80386, the defined area of memory is guaranteed to be locked against access by a processor executing a locked instruction on exactly the same memory area, i.e., an operand with identical starting address and identical length.

 80386 Programmer's Reference Manual -- Section 14.8
The few differences that exist between 80386 real-address mode and 80286 real-address mode are not likely to affect any existing 80286 programs except possibly the system initialization procedures.
Programs that use forms of memory locking specific to the 80286 may not execute properly if transported to a specific application of the 80386.
With the 80386, the defined area of memory is guranteed to be locked against access by a processor executing a locked instruction on exactly the same memory area, i.e., an operand with identical starting address and identical length.

 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The 80286 microprocessor supports a full 16MB address space, however this additional memory is only accessible when the 80286 operates in what is termed as its protected mode.
The default mode of operation for the 80286 is real mode, which is 8086 compatible.
At the time that the 80286 was being designed by Intel, they had no idea that the PC and the 8086 would enjoy widespread popularity, and hence, the design of 80286 protected mode is very incompatible with real mode.

 What is HMA? Intel Real Mode 80286 80386 Microprocessors 64K   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
When Intel designed the 80286 and 80386 microprocessors they where given a special mode of operation, called Real mode, to enable them to operate just like the earlier 8086/8088 processors.
Those earlier processors could only contact or 'address' up to 1 Mb of memory (1,048,576 memory locations, each holding eight bits), while the later 80286 could address 16,777,216 locations (16Mb) and the 80386 a massive 4,294,967,296 (4Gb - more than any computer based on the chip can actually use).
While the 286 and 386 processors are operating in Real mode, to look like a 8086/8088, they can address only the first lMb of memory (no matter how much may be fitted in the computer), plus - due to an oversight- an extra 64K.

The 80286 is of course considered obsolete today.
