Abstract :
This paper gives details of a Intel386TM microprocessor based system in a single package. The functionality of this single device is somewhat equivalent to a 1990 PC. However, the design includes many features that significantly reduce power consumption. The design incorporates `Few Chip Package (FCP)´ technology to marry 0.35 micron logic die and 0.35 micron flash memory technologies in a single 23 mm package. The main feature of the part is its reduced average power consumption of less than 1 mW in target applications
