P8086

The P8086 is a microprocessor IC from Advanced Micro Devices, part of the Am8086 series. It implements a single 16-bit core running at 5 MHz and is supplied in a 40-pin PDIP through-hole package for use in embedded and microprocessor-based systems.

Designed for commercial-grade applications, the P8086 offers 5 V IO signaling, external bus interfaces (EBI/EMI), and a 0 °C to 70 °C operating range, delivering straightforward integration for legacy, prototyping, and embedded designs.

Key Features

• Core and Data Width Single 8086 core with a 16-bit bus width, supporting typical embedded data-path requirements.
• Clock Speed 5 MHz operation suitable for designs targeting moderate-performance embedded control and processing.
• Power and IO 5 V IO voltage compatibility for systems designed around standard TTL/CMOS supply levels.
• External Bus Interfaces EBI/EMI interfaces for connecting external memory and peripheral devices.
• Package and Mounting 40-pin PDIP (40-DIP) through-hole package for ease of prototyping, socketing, and repairability.
• Operating Range and Grade Commercial grade with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C.
• Compliance RoHS compliant to meet standard environmental directives.

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems Use the P8086 where a single 16-bit core and 5 MHz clock meet control and processing needs in commercial products.
• Through-Hole Prototyping and Development The 40-PDIP package supports socketed prototypes, educational lab boards, and repair-friendly assemblies.
• Legacy System Maintenance Suitable for refurbishment or maintenance of existing systems that use the Am8086 family architecture and through-hole packaging.
• External Memory and Peripheral Interfaces EBI/EMI connectivity enables designs that rely on external memory or peripheral expansion.

Unique Advantages

• Through-Hole 40-PDIP Packaging: Simplifies prototyping, socketing and field replacement compared with surface-mount-only parts.
• 16-Bit Single-Core Architecture: Provides wider data paths for embedded control tasks compared with narrower-bus devices.
• EBI/EMI Support: Enables direct connection to external memory and peripherals, reducing additional glue logic.
• 5 V IO Compatibility: Matches common commercial supply rails for easy integration with legacy peripherals and TTL-level interfaces.
• Commercial Temperature Range: Rated 0 °C to 70 °C, aligning with standard commercial embedded deployments.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets environmental compliance requirements for lead-free manufacturing processes.

Why Choose P8086?

The P8086 balances a classic 8086 core architecture with practical integration features—5 MHz operation, 16-bit data width, EBI/EMI interfaces, and a 40-PDIP through-hole package—making it a pragmatic choice for commercial embedded applications, prototyping, and legacy system support. Its 5 V IO and RoHS compliance simplify integration into existing designs and manufacturing flows.

As part of the Advanced Micro Devices Am8086 series, the P8086 is positioned for engineers and procurement focused on straightforward implementation, maintainability, and component-level compatibility in commercial embedded systems.
