'''Am286ZX/LX''' was a family of [[system on chips]] based on the {{amd|Am286}} ({{intel|80286}}) architecture designed by [[AMD]] and introduced in late [[1990]]. These chips integrated the [[CMOS]] core from the {{amd|Am286}} family along with all the logic functions found in the original IBM PC-AT motherboard. These chips provided a clear advantage for mobile devices and laptops by providing lower-power, smaller space, and higher performance at a cheaper price.

== History ==
By 1990 just over 2.2 million laptops/notebooks were sold and they were projecting that number to increase to 4.6 by 1993.<ref>{{apa mag

In an attempt to reduce power consumption and reduce the overall size of mobile devices [[AMD]] introduced the AMD286ZX/LX family of processors which essentially took all the logic functions and glue chips found on the original IBM PC-AT motherboard and incorporated them onto a single chip. The system on a chip used AMD's existing static CMOS core {{amd|Am286#Low-power CMOS models|from the Am286 family}} and incorporated a bus controller, DMA controller, interrupt controller, and clock generator. The chips were 100% compatible with the IBM PC-AT board.

== Members ==
AMD offered two slightly different versions: Am286ZX and Am286LX.

=== Am286ZX ===
The Am286ZX offered the base features, which is the entire SoC with all of its basic functions.

=== Am286LX === 
The Am286LX chips offered everything found in the Am286ZX but included a number of other power saving features such as CPU shutdown mode, system shutdown mode, staggered DRAM refresh, and slow-refresh DRAM support
