Block Diagram
Signals from the external 32-bit processor bus reach the internal units through the bus interface
unit. On the internal side, the bus interface unit and cache unit pass addresses bi-directionally
through a 32-bit bus. Data is passed from the cache to the bus interface unit on a 32-bit data bus.
The closely coupled cache and instruction prefetch units simultaneously receive instruction
prefetches from the bus interface unit over a shared 32-bit data bus, which the cache also uses to
receive operands and other types of data. Instructions in the cache are accessible to the instruction
prefetch unit, which contains a 32-byte queue of instructions waiting to be executed.
The on-chip cache is 16 Kbytes for the IntelDX4 processor and 8 Kbytes for all other members
of the Intel486 processor family. It is 4-way set associative and follows a write-through policy.
The Write-Back Enhanced IntelDX4 processor can be set to use an on-chip write-back cache pol-
