Microprocessor
Microprocessor is defined as a silicon chip embedded with a Central Processing Unit or CPU. It is also
referred to as a computer's logic chip, micro chip, and processor.
Advantages of Microprocessors is that these are general purpose electronic processing devices which can be
programmed to execute a number of tasks. These are used in personal computers as well as a number of other
embedded products.
There are no disadvantages as such but when compared tofixed logic devices or certain ASICs (application
specific intergrated circuits), there is a need to program Microprocessors and write software/firmware when
used in embedded applications.
Function
The function of a Microprocessor is to conduct arithmetic and logic operations.
Speed
One advantage of a Microprocessor is its speed, which is measured in hertz. For instance, a Microprocessor
with 3 gigahertz, shortly GHz, is capable of performing 3 billion tasks per second.
Data Movement
Another advantage of a Microprocessor is that it can quickly move data between the various memory
locations.
Complex Mathematics
Microprocessors are used to perform complicated mathematical operations, like operating on the floating
point numbers.
Disadvantages
Some of the disadvantages with the Microprocessor are that it might get over-heated, and the limitation it
imposes on the size of data.
Applications of Microprocessors
Microprocessors are a mass storage device. They are the advanced form of computers. They arealso called as
microcomputers. The impact of microprocessor in different lures of fields is significant. The availability of
low cost, low power and small weight, computing capability makes it useful in different applications. Now a
days, a microprocessor based systems are used in instructions, automatic testing product, speed control of
motors, traffic light control , light control of furnaces etc. Some of the important areas are mentioned below:
Instrumentation:
it is very useful in the field of instrumentation. Frequency counters, function generators, frequency
synthesizers, spectrum analyses and many other instruments are available, when microprocessors are used as
controller. It is also used in medical instrumentation.
Control:
Microprocessor based controllers are available in home appliances, such as microwave oven, washing
machine etc., microprocessors are being used in controlling various parameters like speed, pressure,
temperature etc. These are used with the help of suitable transduction.
Communication:
Microprocessors are being used in a wide range of communication equipments. In telephone industry, these
are used in digital telephone sets. Telephone exchanges and modem etc. The use of microprocessor in

Evolution of Microprocessor:
Microprocessors were categorized into five generations: first, second, third, fourth, and fifth generations.
Their characteristics are described below:
First-generation: The microprocessors that were introduced in 1971 to 1972 were referred to as the first
generation systems. First-generation microprocessors processed their instructions seriallythey fetched the
instruction, decoded it, then executed it. When an instruction was completed, the microprocessor updated the
instruction pointer and fetched the next instruction, performing this sequential drill for each instruction in
turn.
Second generation: By the late 1970s, enough transistors were available on the IC to usher in the second
generation of microprocessor sophistication: 16-bit arithmetic and pipelined instruction processing.
Motorolas MC68000 microprocessor, introduced in 1979, is an example. Another example is Intels 8080.
This generation is defined by overlapped fetch, decode, and execute steps (Computer 1996). As the first
instruction is processed in the execution unit, the second instruction is decoded and the third instruction is
fetched.
The distinction between the first and second generation devices was primarily the use of newer
semiconductor technology to fabricate the chips. This new technology resulted in a five-fold increase in
instruction, execution, speed, and higher chip densities.
Third generation: The third generation, introduced in 1978, was represented by Intels 8086 and the Zilog
Z8000, which were 16-bit processors with minicomputer-like performance. The third generation came about
as IC transistor counts approached 250,000.
Prof. K. Adisesha 2
8085 Microprocessor
Motorolas MC68020, for example, incorporated an on-chip cache for the first time and the depth of the
pipeline increased to five or more stages. This generation of microprocessors was different from the previous
ones in that all major workstation manufacturers began developing their own RISC-based microprocessor
architectures (Computer, 1996).
Fourth generation: As the workstation companies converted from commercial microprocessors to in-house
designs, microprocessors entered their fourth generation with designs surpassing a million transistors.
Leading-edge microprocessors such as Intels 80960CA and Motorolas 88100 could issue and retire more
than one instruction per clock cycle.
Fifth generation: Microprocessors in their fifth generation, employed decoupled super scalar processing,
and their design soon surpassed 10 million transistors. In this generation, PCs are a low-margin, high-
volume-business dominated by a single microprocessor.
Classification of Microprocessor:
The microprocessor is identified with the word size of data. For E.g. The ALU can perform a 4- bit data
operation at a time these microprocessor is called as 4-bit microprocessor.

Acumulator
It is a 8-bit register which is used to perform airthmetical and logical operation. It stores the output of any
operation. It also works as registers for i/o accesses.
Temporary Register
It is a 8-bit register which is used to hold the data on which the acumulator is computing operation. It is also
called as operand register because it provides operands to ALU.
Registers
These are general purposes registers. Microprocessor consists 6 general purpose registers of 8-bit each
named as B,C,D,E,H and L. Generally theses registers are not used for storing the data permanently. It
carries the 8-bits data. These are used only during the execution of the instructions.
These registers can also be used to carry the 16 bits data by making the pair of 2 registers. The valid register
pairs available are BC,DE HL. We can not use other pairs except BC,DEand HL. These registers are
programmed by user.
ALU
ALU performs the airthmetic operations and logical operation.
Flag Registers
It consists of 5 flip flop which changes its status according to the result stored in an accumulator. It is also
known as status registers. It is connected to the ALU.

D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0
S Z AC P CY
All of the three flip flop set and reset according to the stored result in the accumulator.
1.Sign-
If D7 of the result is 1 then sign flag is set otherwise reset. As we know that a number on the D7 always
desides the sign of the number. if D7 is 1: the number is negative. if D7 is 0: the number is positive.
2.Zeros(Z)-
If the result stored in an accumulator is zero then this flip flop is set otherwise it is reset.
3.Auxiliary carry(AC)-
If any carry goes from D3 to D4 in the output then it is set otherwise it is reset.
4.Parity(P)-
If the no of 1's is even in the output stored in the accumulator then it is set otherwise it is reset for the odd.
5.Carry(C)-
If the result stored in an accumulator generates a carry in its final output then it is set otherwise it is reset.
Instruction registers(IR)
It is a 8-bit register. When an instruction is fetched from memory then it is stored in this register.
Instruction Decoder(ID)
Instruction decoder identifies the instructions. It takes the informations from instruction register and decodes
the instruction to be performed.
Program Counter(PC)
It is a 16 bit register used as memory pointer. It stores the memory address of the next instruction to be
executed. So we can say that this register is used to sequencing the program. Generally the memory have 16
bit addresses so that it has 16 bit memory. The program counter is set to 0000H.
Stack Pointer(SP)
It is also a 16 bit register used as memory pointer. It points to the memory location called stack. Generally
stack is a reserved portion of memory where information can be stores or taken back together.
Timing and Control Unit
It provides timing and control signal to the microprocessor to perform the various operation.It has three
control signal. It controls all external and internal circuits. It operates with reference to clock signal.It
synchronizes all the data transfers.

device.
IO/M (output) - Select memory or an IO device.
This status signal indicates that the read / write operation relates to whether the memory or I/O
device.
It goes high to indicate an I/O operation.
It goes low for memory operations.
5. Status Signals:
S1: S2:
It is used to know the type of current operation of the microprocessor.
IO/M S1 S0 OPERATION
0 1 1 Opcode fetch
0 1 0 Memory read
0 0 1 Memory write
1 1 0 I/O read
1 0 1 I/O write
1 1 0 Interrupt acknowledge
Z 0 1 Halt
Z x x Hold
Z x x Reset
They are the signals initiated by an external device to request the microprocessor to do a particular task or
work.
There are five hardware interrupts called, TRAP, RST 7.5, RST 6.5, RST 5.5, INTA
On receipt of an interrupt, the microprocessor acknowledges the interrupt by the active low INTA
(Interrupt Acknowledge) signal.
Reset In (input, active low)
This signal is used to reset the microprocessor.
The program counter inside the microprocessor is set to zero.
The buses are tri-stated. Reset Out (Output)
It indicates CPU is being reset.
Used to reset all the connected devices when the microprocessor is reset.
When 2 or more devices are connected to a common bus, to prevent the devices from interfering with
each other, the tristate gates are used to disconnect all devices except the one that is communicating at
a given instant.
The CPU controls the data transfer operation between memory and I/O device. Direct Memory
Access operation is used for large volume data transfer between memory and an I/O device directly.
The CPU is disabled by tri-stating its buses and the transfer is effected directly by external control
circuits.
HOLD signal is generated by the DMA controller circuit. On receipt of this signal, the
microprocessor acknowledges the request by sending out HLDA signal and leaves out the control of
the buses. After the HLDA signal the DMA controller starts the direct transfer of data.
READY (input)
Memory and I/O devices will have slower response compared to microprocessors.
Before completing the present job such a slow peripheral may not be able to handle further data or
control signal from CPU.
The processor sets the READY signal after completing the present job to access the data.
The microprocessor enters into WAIT state while the READY pin is disabled.

Eg: -
LDA 3000H (The content at the location 3000H is copied to the register A).
The data is transferred from the address pointed by the data in a register to other register.
Eg: - MOV A, M (data is transferred from the memory location pointed by the regiser to the accumulator).
This mode doesn't require any operand. The data is specified by opcode itself.
Eg: -

CMP
Address Bus
Genearlly, Microprocessor has 16 bit address bus. The bus over which the CPU sends out the address of the
memory location is known as Address bus. The address bus carries the address of memory location to be
written or to be read from.
The address bus is unidirectional. It means bits flowing occurs only in one direction, only from
microprocessor to peripheral devices. We can find that how much memory location it can using the formula
2^N. where N is the number of bits used for address lines.
Data Bus
8085 Microprocessor has 8 bit data bus. So it can be used to carry the 8 bit data starting from
00000000H(00H) to 11111111H(FFH). Here 'H' tells the Hexadecimal Number. It is bidirectional. These
lines are used for data flowing in both direction means data can be transferred or can be received through
these lines. The data bus also connects the I/O ports and CPU. The largest number that can appear on the data
bus is 11111111.
It has 8 parallel lines of data bus. So it can access upto 2^8 = 256 data bus lines.
Control Bus
Prof. K. Adisesha 9
8085 Microprocessor
The control bus is used for sending control signals to the memory and I/O devices. The CPU sends control
signal on the control bus to enable the outputs of addressed memory devices or I/O port devices.
Some of the control bus signals are as follows:
1. Memory read
2. Memory write
3. I/O read
4. I/O write
Interrupts In 8085
what is Interrupt?
Interrupt is a mechanism by which an I/O or an instruction can suspend the normal execution of processor
and get itself serviced. Generally, a particular task is assigned to that interrupt signal. In the microprocessor
based system the interrupts are used for data transfer between the peripheral devices and the microprocessor.
Maskable/Non-Maskable Interrupt
An interrupt that can be disabled by writing some instruction is known as Maskable Interrupt otherwise it is
called Non-Maskable Interrupt.
Execution of Interrupts
When there is an interrupt requests to the Microprocessor then after accepting the interrupts Microprocessor
send the INTA (active low) signal to the peripheral. The vectored address of particular interrupt is stored in
program counter. The processor executes an interrupt service routine (ISR) addressed in program counter.
Software Interrupts
A software interrupts is a particular instructions that can be inserted into the desired location in the rpogram.
There are eight Software interrupts in 8085 Microprocessor. From RST0 to RST7.
1. RST0
2. RST1
3. RST2
4. RST3
5. RST4
6. RST5
7. RST6
Prof. K. Adisesha 10
8085 Microprocessor
8. RST7
They allow the microprocessor to transfer program control from the main program to the subroutine
program. After completing the subroutine program, the program control returns back to the main program.
We can calculate the vector address of these interrupts using the formula given below:
Vector Address = Interrupt Number * 8
For Example:
RST2: vector address=2*8 = 16
RST1: vector address=1*8 = 08
RST3: vector address=3*8 = 24
Vector address table for the software interrupts:
Interrupt Vector Address
RST0 0000H
RST1 0008H
RST2 0010H
RST3 0018H
RST4 0020H
RST5 0028H
RST6 0030H
RST7 0038H
Hardware Interrupt
As i have already discussed that there are 6 interrupt pins in the microprocessor used as Hardware Interrrupts
given below:
1. TRAP
2. RST7.5
3. RST6.5
4. RST5.5
5. INTR
Note:
INTA is not an interrupt. INTA is used by the Microprocessor for sending the acknowledgement. TRAP has
highest priority and RST7.5 has second highest priority and so on.
The Vector address of these interrupts are given below:
TRAP
It is non maskable edge and level triggered interrupt. TRAP has the highest priority and vectores interrupt.
Edge and level triggered means that the TRAP must go high and remain high until it is acknowledged. In
case of sudden power failure, it executes a ISR and send the data from main memory to backup memory.
Prof. K. Adisesha 11
8085 Microprocessor
As we know that TRAP can not be masked but it can be delayed using HOLD signal. This interrupt transfers
the microprocessor's control to location 0024H.
TRAP interrupts can only be masked by reseting the microprocessor. There is no other way to mask it.
RST7.5
It has the second highest priority. It is maskable and edge level triggered interrupt. The vector address of this
interrupt is 003CH. Edge sensitive means input goes high and no need to maintain high state until it is
recognized.
It can also be reset or masked by reseting microprocessor. It can also be resetted by DI instruction.
INTR
It is level triggered and maskable interrupt. The following sequence of events occurs when INTR signal goes
high:
1. The 8085 checks the status of INTR signal during execution of each instruction.
2. If INTR signal is high, then 8085 complete its current instruction and sends active low interrupt
acknowledge signal, if the interrupt is enabled.
3. On receiving the instruction, the 8085 save the address of next instruction on stack and execute
received instruction.
It has the lowest priority. It can be disabled by reseting the microprocessor or by DI and SIM instruction.

Introduction of 8237
Direct Memory Access (DMA) is a method of allowing data to be moved from one location to
another in a computer without intervention from the central processor (CPU).
It is also a fast way of transferring data within (and sometimes between) computer.
The DMA I/O technique provides direct access to the memory while the microprocessor is
temporarily disabled.
The DMA controller temporarily borrows the address bus, data bus and control bus from the
microprocessor and transfers the data directly from the external devices to a series of memory
locations (and vice versa).
Two control signals are used to request and acknowledge a direct memory access (DMA) transfer in
the microprocessor-based system.
1. The HOLD signal as an input(to the processor) is used to request a DMA action.
2. The HLDA signal as an output that acknowledges the DMA action.
When the processor recognizes the hold, it stops its execution and enters hold cycles.
HOLD input has higher priority than INTR or NMI.
The only microprocessor pin that has a higher priority than a HOLD is the RESET pin.
HLDA becomes active to indicate that the processor has placed its buses at high-impedance state.
CPU having the control over the bus When DMA operates
The 8237 supplies memory & I/O with control signals and memory address information during the
DMA transfer.
It is actually a special-purpose microprocessor whose job is high-speed data transfer between memory
and I/O
8237 is not a discrete component in modern microprocessor-based systems.
It appears within many system controller chip sets
8237 is a four-channel device compatible with 8086/8088, adequate for small systems.
Expandable to any number of DMA channel inputs
8237 is capable of DMA transfers at rates up to 1.6MB per second.
Each channel is capable of addressing a full 64K-byte section of memory.
Prof. K. Adisesha 20
8085 Microprocessor
CAR
The current address register holds a 16-bit memory address used for the DMA transfer.
each channel has its own current address
register for this purpose.
When a byte of data is transferred during a DMA operation, CAR is either incremented
or decremented. depending on how it is programmed
CWCR
The current word count register programs a channel for the number of bytes to transferred during a
DMA action.
CR
The command register programs the operation of the 8237 DMA controller.
The register uses bit position 0 to select the memory-to-memory DMA transfer mode.
1. Memory-to-memory DMA transfers use DMA channel
2. DMA channel 0 to hold the source address
3. DMA channel 1 holds the destination address
Prof. K. Adisesha 21
8085 Microprocessor
BA and BWC
The base address (BA) and base word count (BWC) registers are used when auto-initialization is
selected for a channel.
In auto-initialization mode, these registers are used to reload the CAR and CWCR after the DMA
action is completed.
MR
The mode register programs the mode of operation for a channel.
Each channel has its own mode register as selected by bit positions 1 and 0.
1. Remaining bits of the mode register select operation, auto-initialization, increment/decrement,
and mode for the channel
BR
The bus request register is used to request a DMA transfer via software.
1. very useful in memory-to-memory transfers, where an external signal is not available to begin
the DMA transfer
MRSR
The mask register set/reset sets or clears the channel mask.
1. if the mask is set, the channel is disabled
2. the RESET signal sets all channel masks to disable them
Prof. K. Adisesha 22
8085 Microprocessor
MSR
The mask register clears or sets all of the masks with one command instead of individual channels, as
with the MRSR.
SR
The status register shows status of each DMA channel. The TC bits indicate if the channel has
reached its terminal count (transferred all its bytes).
When the terminal count is reached, the DMA transfer is terminated for most modes
of operation.
The request bits indicate whether the DREQ input for a given channel is active.
Prof. K. Adisesha 23
8085 Microprocessor
Master clear
Acts exactly the same as the RESET signal to the 8237. As with the RESET signal, this command
disables all channels
VCC
VSS
GROUND: Ground.
CLK Input
CLOCK INPUT:Clock Input controls the internal operations of the 8237A and its rate of data transfers. The
input may be driven at up to 5 MHz for the 8237A-5.
CS Input
CHIP SELECT:Chip Select is an active low input used to select the 8237A as an I/O device during the Idle
cycle. This allows CPU communication on the data bus.
Prof. K. Adisesha 24
8085 Microprocessor
RESET Input
RESET: Reset is an active high input which clears the Command, Status, Request and Temporary registers. It
also clears the first/ last flip/flop and sets the Mask register. Following a Reset the device is in the Idle cycle.
READY Input
READY: Ready is an input used to extend the memory read and write pulses from the 8237A to
accommodate slow memories or I/O peripheral devices. Ready must not make transitions during its specified
setup/hold time.
HLDA Input
HOLD ACKNOWLEDGE: The active high Hold Acknowledge from the CPU indicates that it has
relinquished control of the system busses.
DMA REQUEST: The DMA Request lines are individual asynchronous channel request inputs used by
peripheral circuits to obtain DMA service. In fixed Priority, DREQ0 has the highest priority and DREQ3 has
the lowest priority. A request is generated by activating the DREQ line of a channel. DACK will
acknowledge the recognition of DREQ signal. Polarity of DREQ is programmable. Reset initializes these
lines to active high. DREQ must be maintained until the corresponding DACK goes active.
DB0 DB7
DATA BUS: The Data Bus lines are bidirectional three-state signals connected to the system data bus. The
outputs are enabled in the Program condition during the I/O Read to output the contents of an Address
register, a Status register, the Temporary register or a Word Count register to the CPU. The outputs are
disabled and the inputs are read during an I/O Write cycle when the CPU is programming the 8237A control
registers. During DMA cycles the most significant 8 bits of the address are output onto the data bus to be
strobed into an external latch by ADSTB. In memory-to-memory operations, data from the memory comes
into the 8237A on the data bus during the read-from-memory transfer. In the write-to-memory transfer, the
data bus outputs place the data into the new memory location.
IOR Input/Output
I/O READ: I/O Read is a bidirectional active low three-state line. In the Idle cycle, it is an input control
signal used by the CPU to read the control registers. In the Active cycle, it is an output control signal used by
the 8237A to access data from a peripheral during a DMA Write transfer.
IOW Input/Output
I/O WRITE: I/O Write is a bidirectional active low three-state line. In the Idle cycle, it is an input control
signal used by the CPU to load information into the 8237A. In the Active cycle, it is an output control signal
used by the 8237A to load data to the peripheral during a DMA Read transfer.
EOP Input/Output
Prof. K. Adisesha 25
8085 Microprocessor
END OF PROCESS: End of Process is an active low bidirectional signal. Information concerning the
completion of DMA services is available at the bidirectional EOP pin. The 8237A allows an external signal
to terminate an active DMA service. This is accomplished by pulling the EOP input low with an external
EOP signal. The 8237A also generates a pulse when the terminal count (TC) for any channel is reached. This
generates an EOP signal which is output through the EOP line. The reception of EOP, either internal or
external, will cause the 8237A to terminate the service, reset the request, and, if Autoinitialize is enabled, to
write the base registers to the current registers of that channel. The mask bit and TC bit in the status word
will be set for the currently active channel by EOP unless the channel is programmed for Autoinitialize. In
that case, the mask bit remains unchanged. During memory-to-memory transfers, EOP will be output when
the TC for channel 1 occurs. EOP should be tied high with a pull-up resistor if it is not used to prevent
erroneous end of process inputs.
A0 A3 Input/Output
ADDRESS: The four least significant address lines are bidirectional three-state signals. In the Idle cycle they
are inputs and are used by the CPU to address the register to be loaded or read. In the Active cycle they are
outputs and provide the lower 4 bits of the output address.
A4 A7 Output
ADDRESS: The four most significant address lines are three-state outputs and provide 4 bits of address.
These lines are enabled only during the DMA service.
HRQ Output
HOLD REQUEST: This is the Hold Request to the CPU and is used to request control of the system bus. If
the corresponding mask bit is clear, the presence of any valid DREQ causes 8237A to issue the HRQ.
DMA ACKNOWLEDGE: DMA Acknowledge is used to notify the individual peripherals when one has
been granted a DMA cycle. The sense of these lines is programmable. Reset initializes them to active low.
AEN Output
ADDRESS ENABLE:Address Enable enables the 8-bit latch containing the upper 8 address bits onto the
system address bus. AEN can also be used to disable other system bus drivers during DMA transfers. AEN is
active HIGH.
ADSTB Output
ADDRESS STROBE: The active high, Address Strobe is used to strobe the upper address byte into an
external latch.
MEMR Output
MEMORY READ: The Memory Read signal is an active low three-state output used to access data from the
selected memory location during a DMA Read or a memory-to-memory transfer.
MEMW Output
Prof. K. Adisesha 26
8085 Microprocessor
MEMORY WRITE: The Memory Write is an active low three-state output used to write data to the selected
memory location during a DMA Write or a memory-to-memory transfer.
PIN5 Input
PIN5: This pin should always be at a logic HIGH level. An internal pull-up resistor will establish a logic high
when the pin is left floating. It is recommended however, that PIN5 be connected to VCC

Statement: Write assembly language program with proper comments for the following:
A block of data consisting of 256 bytes is stored in memory starting at 3000H. This block is to be shifted
(relocated) in memory from 3050H onwards. Do not shift the block or part of the block anywhere else in the
memory.
Two blocks (3000 30FF and 3050 314F) are overlapping. Therefore it is necessary to transfer last byte
first and first byte last.
