Maybe you mean the prefetch queue?
The 8086/8088 instruction queue is a buffer that holds opcode bytes that have been prefetched by the bus interface unit. This speeds up operations of the processor by helping to reduce fetch latency, i.e. to improve the probability that an opcode byte fetched by the processor is already available.
biu stands for bus interface unit and eu stands for execution unit. In 8086 microprocessor BIU fetches the instructions and places in the queue. The Eu executes the fetched instruction and places the result in the registers
In the 8086, pin 35 (A19/S6) is used as the high order address bit during the beginning of each memory access cycle. Afterwards, it is a spare status pin and is unused.
