Assignment 2 (Micro)

The baud rate is the number of times per second a serial communication signal changes states between a voltage level, frequency, or phase angle. If the signal changes once per data bit, then the baud rate and bits per second (bps) are equal. For example, a 300 baud modem changes its states 300 times per second. The 8279 display controller provides a scanned interface for a 64-key matrix with extra control and shift keys. It has three keyboard input modes and hardware for key debouncing. It also allows 2-key rollover without software and interrupts the CPU on key presses to eliminate polling. The 8279 further provides a multiplexed display interface with blanking and inhibit options. Full duplex communication allows

Baud rate

The baud rate is the number of times per second a serial


communication signal changes states; a state being either a voltage
level, a frequency, or a frequency phase angle.

If the signal changes once for each data bit, then one bps is equal to
one baud. For example, a 300 baud modem changes its states 300
times a second.

Features of Display controller 8279


Posted on June 16, 2009 by admin
 IC 8279 provides a scanned interface to a 64 contact key
matrix, with two more keys CONTROL and SHIFT.
 It provides three input modes for keyboard interface.
1. Scanned keyboard mode
2. scanned sensor matrix mode
3. strobed input mode.
 It has built in hardware to provide key debounce.
 It allows in key depression in 2 key lockout or N key rollover
mode, which eliminates software required to implement 2 key
lockout.
 The interrupt output of 8279 can be used to tell CPU that the
key press is detected, this eliminates the need of software polling.
 It provides multiplexed display interface with blanking and
inhibit options.

In Half Duplex mode the communication is from one one side at a time.


Eg:- Walki Talki the cops Use.
In full duplex mode the communication is from both the sides
simultaneously.. Ex:- Your cellur Phone(mobile phone)
