AMD started in the x86 business as a second-source manufacturer for Intel's chip designs. IBM demanded all suppliers have a second manufacturing source, and Intel had to license another company to secure the IBM PC contract. The Am286 was a result of this contract. Essentially just an Intel 80286, the Am286 was in reality Intel-designed all the way, pin and instruction compatible, based upon Intel's microcode. Notably used in the Space Shuttle program, the chip was later sold by AMD as an embedded system processor. x86 microprocessors
