Overview of 8088-2/BQA – IC MPU 8MHZ 40CDIP
The 8088-2/BQA is an 8088 microprocessor IC featuring a single 8-bit core running at 8 MHz. It is supplied in a 40-pin ceramic dual in-line package (40-CDIP, 0.600", 15.24 mm) with through-hole mounting, 5 V I/O and EBI/EMI interface support, and a wide operating temperature range of -55 °C to 125 °C.
Key Features
- Core and Bus Width Single 8088 core with an 8-bit external data bus, providing a straightforward, verified architecture for system designs that require a single 8-bit MPU.
- Clock Speed 8 MHz operating frequency for deterministic, fixed-frequency operation matching legacy and specific timing requirements.
- Power and I/O 5 V I/O voltage compatibility for designs using traditional 5 V logic domains.
- Package and Mounting 40-CDIP package (0.600", 15.24 mm) in a through-hole form factor, facilitating secure board mounting and compatibility with socketed designs.
- External Bus Interface (EBI/EMI) Integrated EBI/EMI interfaces to support external memory and peripheral expansion through standardized bus signaling.
- Extended Temperature Range Rated for operation from -55 °C to 125 °C, supporting deployments that require wide temperature tolerance.
- RoHS Compliant Meets RoHS environmental requirements for reduced hazardous substances.
Unique Advantages
- Predictable 8 MHz operation: Fixed 8 MHz clock speed simplifies timing analysis and deterministic system behavior.
- Compact through-hole package: 40-CDIP (0.600", 15.24 mm) supports socketing and robust mechanical attachment for production and prototyping.
- 5 V I/O compatibility: Direct interfacing with 5 V logic levels reduces the need for level translation in existing 5 V systems.
- EBI/EMI expansion support: Built-in external bus interfaces allow connection to off-chip memory and peripherals for system scalability.
- Wide operating temperature span: -55 °C to 125 °C rating supports designs that require extended thermal tolerance.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS status indicates adherence to environmental material restrictions.
