=== Other devices === The Intel 80186 and 80188 are often embedded in electronic devices that are not primarily computers. For example: * The 80186 was used to control the Microtek 8086 in-circuit emulator.<ref>{{cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqLBmWu6Mg4 |title=EEVblog #410 β Microtek 8086 In-Circuit Emulator Teardown |publisher=EEVBlog |date=January 15, 2013 |via=YouTube}}</ref> * The 80188 was embedded inside the Intel 14.4EX modem released in 1991. The 16 MHz processor was used to perform complex algorithms needed for forward error correction, [[trellis modulation]], and echo cancellation in the modem. * The second-generation SatisFAXtion board, which is a [[FAX]]/[[modem]] [[Industry Standard Architecture|ISA]] card, uses this processor.<ref>Intel Corporation, "New Product Focus: Systems: PC Fax Board Simplifies Data Transmission", Microcomputer Solutions, January/February 1991, page 14.</ref> * The IBM 7171 protocol converter, which made [[ASCII]] [[character-oriented terminal]]s appear as an [[IBM 3270]] terminal to an IBM mainframe,<ref name="Brear1985">{{cite magazine |last=Brear |first=Scott |date=January 21, 1985 |title=Cycle of change speeds up |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Q-MrXqjWoIYC&pg=PA61-IA15 |magazine=[[Computerworld]] |publisher=IDG Enterprise |volume=19 |issue=3 |pages=ID/15 |issn=0010-4841}}</ref> used the Intel 80186 as its CPU.<ref>{{Cite book |url=http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/ibm/7171/GA37-0021-0_7171_Reference_Manual_and_Programming_Guide_Jan86.pdf |title=7171 Reference Manual and Programming Guide |publisher=IBM Corporation |year=1986 |pages=4β13 |id=GA37-0021-0}}</ref> * It was also used on the controller card for Digital Equipment Corporation's [[DECtalk]] speech synthesizer system.
