Build your own 8088 Microprocessor kit 8088 Microprocessor KitWichit Sirichote, wichit.sirichote@gmail.comBuild your own Microprocessor training kit with the 80C88 CMOS Microprocessor.Simple design single board computer using the 80C88 16-bit microprocessor. The CPU is Harris 80C88 40-pin ceramic package.

The oscillator chip is Siemens SAB8284B with 12MHz xtal. The CPU clock is 4MHz. The ROM is now at the highest memory space designed for boot loader with lowest location for running application programs in RAM space. Learn the basic of x86 CPU with this trainer kit is very fun.The board consumes approx.

180mA at +5V power supply. Most chips produce no heat, only 8284 and 7805 are a bit warm.The software UART, 2400 bit/s is for Intel hex file downloading.Hardware schematic (click to enlarge)Hardware descriptions: U5 is CMOS 80C88 microprocessor in minimum mode. The Address bus is demultiplexed with ALE signal and latched by U6 and U9, 74HC573.The CPU clock is generated by U8, 8284 chip. The Xtal frequency is 12.000MHz. CPU clock is 12.000MHz/3 = 4.000MHz.U1 is 32kB EPROM, 27C256. The address space for EPROM is decoded at 0xFC000-0xFFFFF.

U2 is 128kB static RAM, 628128. The RAM space is located at 0x00000-0x1FFFF.U3, memory and I/O spaces decoder chip is made with GAL16V8D. It provides chip selected signals for memory and I/O chips.U4, the 20-pin 89C2051 microcontroller chip produces 10ms tick. SW1 selects between 10ms tick or manual INTR button. The chip uses PCLK from 8284 chip.U15, 74HC541 is 8-bit input port (PORT0).

PA7 is one bit for serial data RXD signal.U13, 74HC573 is 8-bit output port (PORT2). The 8-bit output drives the 7-segment LED directly. No current limit resistor.

U14 (PORT1) drives 6-digit common cathode pin. The brightness is controlled by PWM.U16, 74HC175 is 4-bit output port (PORT3). Bit 3 is for TxD serial data stream. Bit 4 is for BEEP driver.U17, 74HC573 is 8-bit output port for 8-bit binary number display. D15 lifts the forward biasing for proper brightness. JR1 is 16-pin socket for text LCD interface.

U18, MAX232 converts TTL level to RS232 level.Q1, KIA7042 is reset chip for power brownout.PLD equations: U3 is a PLD chip used to select the memory and I/O ports. The address and I/O spaceS can be programmed using PLD equations. The source file of PLD equations is shown in Figure 4. The PLD compiler is ATMELWinCupl.

Blessed with a bit of spare time recently, I completed my most zany ever contraption: A powered by the giant of computing history – Intel’s 8086 processor.Why?Back in the day, if you wanted to play with this stuff, you were likely reaching for a beast resembling the. Code ran from EPROMs, was debugged by logic analyser and closest thing to stackexchange was a stack of technical manuals.

These days, stuff like this is becoming increasingly rare, but to many, still interesting.I’ve always thought it’d be cool to build a single board computer in the old style, specifically, one with a traditional local bus.It’s a shame (but understandable) that these days, it’s tough to find a small microcontroller with an honest local bus. Many have one, but almost none actually need it. Just prior to this project, I built a board based on an 8031. It was cool, but not cool enough. The 8031 still is a very integrated device and doesn’t really need its bus for anything other than the ROM.Hungry for more (and out of work at the time) – at the start of July 2014, I kicked off a second project: 8OD.

Based on the Intel 8086. It quickly became apparent that this project was going to be on another scale. The resulting board is definitely guilty of looking very complicated, but really, it’s pretty basic. It’s just got most of the stuff which is normally jammed inside an SoC as real circuitry. Additional information.Am I selling these?In response to considerable interest when I first published this project, I did consider it, but in the end decided not to offer them for sale. There’s just too many end of life / difficult to find parts on this board to manufacture it in saleable quantities.

Even if I could reliably obtain the parts, it’d cost more than anyone would be willing to pay 😉For anyone who’s really interested. Get in touch.

In some cases I may consider making boards available depending on circumstances. Building oneAs it is not practical to mass produce these – I am willing to assist / provide all of the information needed to anyone interested in making one, provided that you understand that you are going to have to source some recycled components – namely: the XC95216 CPLD, and the TP3465V SPI master. Once again get in touch if interested.

Ethernet is probably the showiest thing but you can have good fun with a lot of modern peripherals meant for arduinos. If you look on the about page you can see a rangefinder using a little lcd and an ultrasonic module for example.My two level design was because someone else came up with the basic 1802 board and I piggybacked on it. The assembly is small enough that it will fit in most places that an arduino will go like a robot car:Anyway, thanks for the compliment and i’ll keep coming back to check your progress. Just few comments on that comment:the µP you are using is a C8086 from intel, so it is already a very late C-Mos-Implentation, that should be able to run also at 3.3VAre you sure you don’t mean 80C86?

The ‘C’ in the C8086 I picture 8OD with denotes ceramic DIP package. It’s an NMOS part. I was mostly only interested in running the original NMOS parts. I have tried a CMOS 8086 (CP80C86) but I checked the datasheet, its VCC is min 4.5V. Granted it ‘should’ work, but I wasn’t out to build something that just ‘should’ work.due to its more handsome 8-Bit external BusI never found the 8088’s bus interface very handsome.

It makes it rather a lousy CPU as the EU spends about 30% of its time twiddling its thumbs waiting for the BIU.Also I thought I’d enjoy the challenge of making it a 16-bit design more. There’s very few other examples of people attempting something like this so am definitely glad I did.if not: there are many level-shifter ICs on the market solving that issueIt depends what you mean by solving. Sure, buffering the CPU side would be easy, but 8OD’s interface to the outside world is through the CPLD, so that’d make it somewhat of an ugly duckling in the predominately 5 volt Arduino world, especially with many shields assuming 5 volt operation.Perhaps buffer the general purpose pins too?

That’d be complex. I’ve never seen a level shifter with individually reverseable channels, other than auto direction shifters, which are no good for things like driving LEDs. Even if such a thing existed, I’d quickly find myself with a world of new problems, including being plagued with glitch problems on I/O direction changes.Not to mention the difficulty accommodating all of this on the PCB without making it significantly larger or adding more layers.so you can build up a FPGA-only Arduino-Board and virtually implement ANY CPUI could save myself even more time and just play with emu8086.So if i would have some spare time i rather would build a 6502 (or better: 65816 or insiders;o)) board with arduino compatible I/OI look forward to seeing it.
