N80286-8

The N80286-8 is an Intel i80286-series microprocessor supplied in a 68-lead PLCC surface-mount package. It implements a single 80286 core running at 8 MHz with 5 V I/O and supports an external 80287 floating-point coprocessor.

Designed for embedded and commercial applications, the device provides a compact PLCC footprint, DRAM-compatible memory controller support, and a commercial operating temperature range for standard industrial and OEM environments.

Key Features

• Core & Performance  The IC uses a single 80286 core running at 8 MHz, suitable for designs that require this processor architecture.
• Co-processor Support  Supports an external 80287 FPU for hardware floating-point acceleration when required by the application.
• Memory Interface  Compatible with DRAM memory controllers to interface with external system memory.
• Power  5 V I/O voltage for compatibility with common commercial logic levels.
• Package & Mounting  68-LCC (J-Lead) / 68-PLCC supplier device package in a surface-mount form factor for compact board-level integration.
• Environmental / Grade  Commercial grade device with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C and RoHS compliance.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control Systems  Single-core 80286 processing at 8 MHz can be used for control logic and system management in embedded equipment.
• Industrial Equipment  Commercial-grade temperature rating and PLCC packaging make the device suitable for industrial OEMs requiring standard-temperature processors.
• Legacy System Maintenance  The i80286 architecture and 5 V I/O support use in maintenance, repair, and replacement for legacy computing platforms.
• Numeric Processing with FPU  Pairing with an external 80287 coprocessor enables hardware-accelerated floating-point tasks when needed.

Unique Advantages

• Proven 80286 Architecture: Delivers established single-core 80286 processing suitable for designs already targeting this series.
• External FPU Support: Ability to add an 80287 coprocessor enables optional floating-point acceleration without changing the main MPU.
• Compact PLCC Surface-Mount Package: 68-PLCC J-lead package provides a small board footprint and surface-mount assembly compatibility.
• DRAM Compatibility: Built to interface with DRAM controllers for standard memory configurations.
• Commercial Temperature Range: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C for deployment in commercial and standard industrial environments.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets RoHS requirements for materials compliance in current manufacturing processes.
