IP80C88-2

The Renesas IP80C88-2 is an 80C88 CMOS microprocessor packaged in a 40-PDIP through-hole body. It provides a single-core, 16-bit internal architecture with an 8-bit external data bus and a rated clock speed of 8 MHz.

Designed for embedded and industrial applications, the device offers a completely static CMOS design, 1 MB of direct memory addressing and software compatibility with 80C86/8086/8088 families, enabling reuse of existing code and peripherals where applicable.

Key Features

• Core & Architecture  80C88 core with a 16-bit internal architecture and an 8-bit external data bus; single-core design for straightforward system integration.
• Performance  Clock rated at 8 MHz (80C88-2)
• Memory & Addressing  1 MB direct memory addressing capability and 24 operand addressing modes for flexible data access patterns.
• Low Power CMOS  Completely static CMOS construction with low-power figures in the datasheet (ICC standby and operating current characteristics reported: ICCSB ≤ 500 μA, ICCOP ≤ 10 mA/MHz).
• Compatibility  Datasheet notes direct software compatibility with 80C86, 8086 and 8088 processors and compatibility with NMOS 8088 hardware in many designs.
• Bus & I/O  Bus-hold circuitry to eliminate external pull-up resistors; I/O voltage documented at 5 V.
• Package & Mounting  40-PDIP (0.600", 15.24 mm) through-hole package for easy prototyping, retrofit and assembly into legacy boards.
• Industrial Temperature Range  Rated for operation from -40 °C to +85 °C and specified as Industrial qualification in the product data.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant; Pb-free packaging options referenced in the datasheet.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control  Embedded control and supervisory functions where the -40 °C to +85 °C operating range and through-hole mounting are valuable.
• Legacy System Maintenance  Replacement or refurbishment of systems that rely on 8086/8088-compatible software and peripherals, enabling software reuse.
• Prototyping & Development  Through-hole 40-PDIP packaging simplifies hand-assembly, board-level testing and validation during development cycles.

Unique Advantages

• Industry-standard architecture  Compatibility with 80C86/8086/8088 software and NMOS 8088 hardware paths helps preserve existing code and design investments.
• Static CMOS construction  Fully static design reduces power consumption and simplifies clock management for low-power embedded designs.
• Through-hole 40-PDIP package  Facilitates prototyping, repair and integration into legacy boards without SMT rework.
• Industrial temperature rating  Specified -40 °C to +85 °C operation supports deployment in harsher environments than commercial-only devices.
• Broad addressing capability  1 MB direct memory addressing gives designers ample linear address space for firmware and data.
• RoHS compliant / Pb-free options  Meets environmental compliance requirements for modern manufacturing processes.
