Intel387™ DX MATH COPROCESSOR

The Intel387TM DX Math CoProcessor (MCP) is an extension of the Intel386TM microprocessor architecture. The combination of the Intel387 DX MCP with the Intel386TM DX Microprocessor dramatically increases the processing speed of computer application software which utilize mathematical operations. This makes an ideal computer workstation platform for applications such as financial modeling and spreadsheets, CAD/CAM, or graphics. The Intel387 DX Math CoProcessor adds over seventy mnemonics to the Intel386 DX Microprocessor instruction set. Specific Intel387 DX MCP math operations include logarithmic, arithmetic, exponential, and trigonometric functions. The Intel387 DX MCP supports integer, extended integer, floating point and BCD data formats, and fully conforms to the ANSI/IEEE floating point standard.
