Got an older Intel CPU die from ebay to look at under the microscope. Grinding/dissolving to expose a die from a CPU was too much trouble, so I found someone selling these that never made it to being packaged.

You can observe damaged contact pins in the left side (darkened area)

They are huge and look like an V8 engine to cool off two Intel Xeon 6 cores CPUs.

This is the CPU socket (Socket 439 Format) on an Acer Laptop.

Intel Pentium G3220 dual-core CPU, Asus H87-Pro motherboard, and 8GB of Kingston HyperX RAM. A snappy lower-cost combination.

Minimal footprint

Here we have 2x 186 processors and a 286. Very rare to find a 186 in a PC.

The 186 was a popular chip in other applications. Many versions have been developed in its history. Buyers could choose from CHMOS or HMOS, 8-bit or 16-bit versions, depending on what they needed. A CHMOS chip could run at twice the clock speed and at one fourth the power of the HMOS chip. In 1990, Intel came out with the Enhanced 186 family. They all shared a common core design. They had a 1-micron core design and ran at about 25MHz at 3 volts. The 80186 contained a high level of integration, with the system controller, interrupt controller, DMA controller and timing circuitry right on the CPU. Despite this, the 186 never really found itself in a personal computer.

One day whilst cleaning out my shed, I found this item. I thought is was interesting enough to take a photo of.

Whilst these items are not for sale, if anyone knows it's value, please send me a comment.

If anyone knows any background about the item, please send me a comment.

Photo taken with a Canon 30D in Macro mode. The lens was a 18-55 mm and a macro light was used. The item was placed into a light tent.

K6-2 CPU (not sure what speed), 32M ram. The actual ATSC board was a double-wide PCI board joined to an ISA board with a jumper.
