NEC offers several microcontrollers with x86 core, eg. the V40 (internal
name: 70208; a 16bit version of this chip is called V50 / 70216),),
a V20 (which contains the full 80286 real mode instruction set and is
able to emulate 8080 code) with interrupt controller, wait state generator,
timer, serial port and DMA controller in a 68 pin PGA or PLCC.
There is another one called V53 (said to be much faster, with nearly the
performance of an intel 386), but I've never used it.

They've got a nice paperback reference manual on those chips, but it
doesn't even contain any timings...

P.S. Respond via email, I don't check this group regularly... lack of time.
