Am386 Am5x86

Am486 was a family of 32-bit 4th-generation x86 microprocessors introduced by AMD in 1993. Am486 chips were compatible with Intel's 80486, but offered very equivalent performance for cheaper prices.

History

Just like AMD's Am386, Am486 was also delayed after expensive and lengthy litigation with Intel. The first models of the Am486 (Am486DX) were finally introduced in April of 1993. AMD manufactured their first Am486s at their Submicron Development Center (SDC) in Sunnyvale, CA on a 0.7 µm process. By the end of 1993 AMD revenue of the Am486 reached $250M taking a total of 20% share of the market[1]. By 1995 that share peaked at 40%.

AMD's last models (Am486DX4's) for this family were clocked at up to 120 MHz which gave AMD a significant performance advantage compared to Intel's earliest Pentium chips (which were only clocked at around 60 MHz). The Am486DX4 lower price (compared to Intel's DX4) and socket-comparability ensured strong sale for quite some time after their introduction.

Earliest (700 nm) models operated at 5V, when AMD undergone a process shrink around late 1994/95 they introduced 3.3V models. Initially all models packed 8KB L1$ that used write-through policy. AMD later (See § Larger Cache) introduced various models with other cache set ups including write-back and double the L1$ size which was manufactured on a 350 nm process.

Members

Am486DX

The Am486DX chips are the standard 486 chips with an integrated FPU on-die. First versions introduced had lower clock frequency which matched their external bus speed. Later versions introduced a clock multiplier: DX2 having a multiplier of 2 and DX4 a multiplier of 3.

Am486SX

The Am486SX chips are somewhat a crippled version of the 486DX, models that do not include an integrated FPU. Those chips were sold at cheaper prices because of the smaller die (in the case of omitted FPU on-die) or because the FPU was defective and was thus disabled and sold as SX. Nevertheless they became an attractive option for those looking for just a performance upgrade from their older 386.

Larger Cache & Post-lawsuit

In 1994 AMD introduced a number of newer models which had Write-Back cache policy as well as a few models with twice as large cache (16 KB vs 8 KB). The older models were renamed with a "V8T" suffix; V = 3.3V, 8 = 8 KB cache, T = Write-Through Policy (e.g. Am486DX2-80V8T). The new models with the Write-Back Policy had "B" instead of "T" and the 16 KB versions had "16" instead of "8" (e.g. Am486DX2-66V16B).

Following the conclusion of an 8-year legal battle with Intel, the results was AMD was allowed to copy and distribute Am286s and Am386s chips. Unfortunately it was also concluded that AMD did not have the right copy Intel's microcode for the 80486. AMD was forced to destroy the older models containing Intel's in-circuit emulation (ICE) microcode. The "ICE microcode" was referred to the control program which was stored in the 386's/486's programmable logic array in the processor. All newer AMD models were marked with an "N" (for "No ICE"). For example the previous model Am486DX4-100V8T became Am486DX4-100NV8T.

Enhanced Am486

In 1997 AMD introduced a number of chips they branded as "Enhanced Am486". Those processors had a number of new power saving features (e.g. SMM and Stop Clock Mode). The additional features found on the enhanced Am486 get disabled if the processor is used in a socket that does not support them, making them backwards-compatible. The new Enhanced Am486s were marked with "S" (for SMM), for example Am486DX2-66SV8B. Note that some later models did not include the "S" even though they were enhanced models.
