GROUP ASSIGNMENT QN: 8085 PIN CONFIGURATION INTRODUCTION 8085 is pronounced as “eighty-eighty-five” microprocessor it is an 8-bit microprocessor designed by Intel in 1977 using NMOS technology Pin Diagram Microprocessor- 8085 Pin Configuration The pins on the chip can be grouped into 6 groups: 1. Power supply and frequency. 2. Serial I/O ports. 3. Address Bus. 4. Data Bus. 5. Control and Status Signals. 6. Externally Initiated Signals. Power supply and Frequency signals There are 2 power Supply signals: - VCC VCC indicates +5v power supply. - VSS VSS indicates ground signal There are 3 pin in the frequency control group 1. X1, 2. X2. 3. CLK OUT. - X1 & X2 are the inputs from the clock generating circuit. It is use to synchronize the operations of the 8085 microprocessor. The microprocessor has operates at 3MHz frequency. - CLK OUT This signal is used as the system clock for devices connected with the microprocessor Serial I/O ports These signals are used for giving serial input and output data. - SID: Serial Input Data. This pin provides serial input data. The serial data on this pin is loaded into the seventh bit of the accumulator when RIM instruction is executed. RIM stands for READ INTERRUPT MASK, which checks whether the interrupt is masked or not - SOD: Serial Out Data This pin provides the serial output data. The serial data on this pin delivers its output to the seventh bit of the accumulator when SIM instruction is executed Address Bus. A8 - A15: It carries the most significant 8 bits of the memory address or the 8 bits of the I/O address. Data Bus. Data bus is of 8 Bit. It is used to transfer data between microprocessor and memory. AD0 – AD7. It carries the least significant 8-bit address and data bus. Control and Status Signals These signals are used to identify the nature of operation. - RD: This signal indicates that the selected IO or memory device is to be read and is ready for accepting data available on the data bus. -WR: This signal indicates that the data on the data bus is to be written into a selected memory or IO location. Externally Initiated Signals. INTA It is an interrupt acknowledgment signal. RESET IN This signal is used to reset the microprocessor by setting the program counter to zero. RESET OUT This signal is used to reset all the connected devices when the microprocessor is reset.
