Description:
The Sony CXQ70108D-8 is a rare second-source implementation of the NEC V20, designed as a high-performance, drop-in replacement for the Intel 8088. Operating at 8 MHz, the V20 architecture improves upon the original 8088 by offering more efficient instruction execution and additional instructions, resulting in noticeably better performance while maintaining full 8088 software compatibility.
This chip comes in a ceramic DIP40 package, typical of the era, and is significantly less common than NEC-branded versions, making Sony variants particularly collectible.
✅ Sony-produced NEC V20 (8088-compatible) CPU
✅ 8 MHz, enhanced performance over Intel 8088
✅ Ceramic DIP40 package
✅ Rare second-source Sony variant
✅ A scarce and historically interesting upgrade CPU for early x86 systems and collectors.
