Basic Microprocessor - Software ARCHITECTURE OF 8088/8086: Bus Interface Unit & Execution Unit

The microprocessor contains two main units: the Bus Interface Unit (BIU) and the Execution Unit (EU). The BIU interfaces with external devices by fetching instructions, reading and writing data, and generating addresses. It contains registers like the CS, DS, SS, ES, and IP registers. The EU decodes and executes instructions using components like the ALU, flags, and general purpose registers including AX, BX, CX, DX, SP, BP, SI, and DI.
