Real mode is a term that was introduced for the 80286 and higher processors. It represents the default (power on) mode of an 80286 or higher processor, as opposed to one of the various protected modes. Real mode does not apply specifically to the 8086/8088. In the 80286 and above, real mode operates very much like the 8086/8088.
