"SOLUTIONS: A Publication of Intel Corporation" from March/April 1983, featuring "MULTIBUS BOARDS: THE EASY PATH TO iAPX 286 SYSTEMS".29pgsa fascinating snapshot of Silicon Valley's early years
Multibus was an asynchronous bus architecture developed by Intel, allowing for communication between various devices with different transfer rates while maintaining high throughput.iAPX 286 Systems:The iAPX 286, also known as the Intel 80286, was a powerful 16-bit microprocessor introduced by Intel, notable for being the first x86 CPU to support protected virtual-address mode and on-chip memory management unit (MMU) capabilities.This publication highlights the use of Multibus boards as an efficient way to integrate the new iAPX 286 microprocessor into system designs, offering solutions for building high-performance 16-bit computer systems.Historical Context:This cover reflects a significant period in computing history when Intel was introducing advanced microprocessors like the 80286 and promoting its bus architectures for system development.
