Intel distributes microcode updates as a 2,048 (2 kilobyte) binary blob. [1] The update contains information about which processors it is designed for, so that this can be checked against the result of the CPUID instruction. [1] The structure is a 48-byte header, followed by 2,000 bytes intended to be read directly by the processor to be ...
While capable of encoding values from 8 to 31 (values 0 to 7 map to ModR/M-encoded variants of the older POP instruction, making them unusable for XOP), only maps 8, 9 and 0Ah were ever used: map 8 for instructions that take an 8-bit immediate, map 9 for instructions that don't take an immediate, and map 0Ah for instructions that take a 32-bit ...
Will change OperandSize from 16-bit to 32-bit if CS.D=0, or from 32-bit to 16-bit if CS.D=1. 67h: AddressSize override. Will change AddressSize from 16-bit to 32-bit if CS.D=0, or from 32-bit to 16-bit if CS.D=1. The 80386 also introduced the two new segment registers FS and GS as well as the x86 control, debug and test registers.
On October 21, 2007, Intel presented a new processor for its Intel Essential Series. The full name of the processor is a Celeron 220 and is soldered on the D201GLY2 motherboard. With 1.2 GHz and a 512 KB second level cache it has a TDP of 19 Watt and can be cooled passively. The Celeron 220 is the successor of the Celeron 215 which is based on ...
The primary defining characteristic of IA-32 is the availability of 32-bit general-purpose processor registers (for example, EAX and EBX), 32-bit integer arithmetic and logical operations, 32-bit offsets within a segment in protected mode, and the translation of segmented addresses to 32-bit linear addresses. The designers took the opportunity ...

The Pentium Dual-Core brand was used for mainstream x86-architecture microprocessors from Intel from 2006 to 2009, when it was renamed to Pentium.The processors are based on either the 32-bit Yonah or (with quite different microarchitectures) 64-bit Merom-2M, Allendale, and Wolfdale-3M core, targeted at mobile or desktop computers.
