Does INTEL have a microcontroller (ie UART, A/D IO ports etc) that comes
with a x86 core? The x86 core should be a relatively high performance
one (386+ ?).

My reasons are this,

1) I have a requirement for a microcontroller (small board space).

2) I have extreme budget requirements.

3) (related to 2) I want to be able to use standard PC software tools
(ie compilers/assemblers).

I'm not a VLSI design guy but I shouldn't think it'd be difficult for
INTEL to produce such a chip from stock stuff. The question is - have they?

Thanks
