1. Define the basic block diagram micro computer system.
Key points of 8085 IC
1. It is known as 8 bit processor, it can process 8 bit data at a time.
2. It can only understand 0 & 1
3. It has 40 pins.
4. Internal clock frequency for calculation execution time of 8085 is 3MHz
5. Concept of address bus and data bus
6. Bus is group of communication lines through which each and all blocks are connected
internally
7. How many different types of buses are there in 8085?
8. Address bus, data bus & control bus
9. For address bus the maximum size is 16 bits
10. For data bus the maximum size is 8 bits
11. It can only perform two operations READ & WRITE.
12. It will use two control signals RDbar, WRbar.
13. Control Bus is used to transmit the control signals for read and write operation.
MEMORY READ OPERATION
1. 8085 first places the address in the address bus
2. This address is decided by the DECODER IC and the location is identified from where the data
is to be fetched.
3. After getting the control signal from 8085 data will be placed to data bus
4. Because of its bidirectional nature data will come to 8085.
Explanation of architecture
REGISTER ARRAY
1. Total 6 Registers (B,C,D,E,H,L)
2. Each of size is 8 bit
3. Whenever there is a need to store 16 bit address we will use register pairs i.e BC PAIR,DE
PAIR & HL PAIR
4. Accumulator is by default register, whenever it is not mentioned microprocessor will search
accumulator for the data.
What is stack pointer?
It is denoted by starting position of any memory location.
What is program Counter?
When the ist instruction is executed and from where the next instruction is to be executed is defined
by Program Counter Register.
