Abstract The most significant characteristics of the two devices are compared. These include packaging, address space, internal architecture, mode of address, instruction sets, interruptions, performance, and peripherals. Comparison shows advantages for the 68000 over the 8086 as to internal architecture. On the other hand, the 8086 with the 8087 coprocessor is considerably more powerful. The two families of peripheral circuitry offer more or less similar functions, although under different forms, with performance being on the same order of magnitude.
