9–1 PIN-OUTS AND THE PIN
FUNCTIONS

• In this section, we explain the function and


the multiple functions of each of the
microprocessor’s pins.
• In addition, we discuss the DC characteristics
to provide a basis for understanding the later
sections on buffering and latching.
The Pin-Out
• Figure 9–1 illustrates pin-outs of 8086 & 8088.
– both are packaged in 40-pin dual in-line packages
(DIPs)
• 8086 is a 16-bit microprocessor with a 16-bit
data bus; 8088 has an 8-bit data bus.
– 8086 has pin connections AD0–AD15
– 8088 has pin connections AD0–AD7
• Data bus width is the only major difference.
• thus 8086 transfers 16-bit data more efficiently
Pin out of the 8086 and 8088 Microprocessor
Figure 9–1 (a) The pin-out of the 8086 in maximum mode;
(b) the pin-out of the 8086 in minimum mode.
Power Supply Requirements
• Both microprocessors require +5.0 V with a
supply voltage tolerance of +10 percent.
– 8086 uses a maximum supply current of 360 mA
– 8088 draws a maximum of 340 mA
• Both microprocessors operate in ambient
temperatures of between 32° F and 180° F.
• 80C88 and 80C86 are CMOS versions that require
only 10 mA of power supply current.
– and function in temperature extremes of –40° F
through +225° F
DC Characteristics
• It is impossible to connect anything to a
microprocessor without knowing input
current requirement for an input pin.
– and the output current drive capability for an
output pin (Fanout)
• This knowledge allows hardware designers
to select proper interface components for use
with the microprocessor
– without the fear of damaging anything
Input Characteristics
• Input characteristics of these microprocessors
are compatible with all the standard logic
components available today.
• Table 9–1 depicts input voltage levels and
the input current requirements for any input
pin on either microprocessor.
• The input current levels are very small
because the inputs are the gate connections
of MOSFETs and represent only leakage
currents.
Output Characteristics
• Table 9–2 illustrates output characteristics of
all the output pins of these microprocessors.
• The logic 1 voltage level of the 8086/8088 is
compatible with most standard logic families.
– logic 0 level is not
• Standard logic circuits have a maximum logic 0
voltage of 0.4 V; 8086/8088 has a maximum of
0.45 V.
– a difference of 0.05 V
8086/88 Input and Output
Characteristics
Input characteristics of 8086/88

output characteristics of 8086/88


Pin Connections AD7 - AD0
• 8088 address/data bus lines are multiplexed
– and contain the rightmost 8 bits (Lower-half) of
the memory address or I/O port number
whenever ALE (Address Latch Enable) is active
(logic 1)
– or data whenever ALE is inactive (logic 0)
• These pins are at their high-impedance state
during a hold acknowledge.
Pin Connections A15 - A8
• 8088 address bus provides the upper-half
memory address bits that are present
throughout a bus cycle.
• These address connections go to their high-
impedance state during a hold acknowledge.
Pin Connections
• READ- When read signal is logic 0, the data bus is receptive
to data from memory or I/O devices
– pin floats high-impedance state during a hold acknowledge
• Ready-Inserts wait states into the timing.
– if placed at a logic 0, the microprocessor enters into wait
states and remains idle
– if logic 1, no effect on the operation
• Interrupt request is used to request a hardware interrupt.
– If INTR is held high when IF = 1, 8086/8088
enters an interrupt acknowledge cycle after the current
instruction has completed execution
Pin Connections
• The non-maskable interrupt input is similar to INTR.
– does not check IF flag bit for logic 1
• if The Test pin is an input that is tested by the WAIT instruction.
a) If TEST is a logic 0, the WAIT instruction functions as an NOP.
b) If TEST is a logic 1, the WAIT instruction waits for TEST to become a
logic 0.
c) The TEST pin is most often connected tothe 8087 numeric
coprocessor.
• RESET-Causes the microprocessor to reset itself if held high a minimum of
four clocking periods.
– when 8086/8088 is reset, it executes instructions at memory location
FFFF0H
– also disables future interrupts by clearing IF flag
Pin Connections
• The clock pin provides the basic timing signal.
– must have a duty cycle of 33 % (high for one third of clocking period, low
for two thirds) to provide proper internal timing
• VCC-This power supply input provides a +5.0 V, ±+10 % signal to the
microprocessor.
• GND-The ground connection is the return for the power supply.
– 8086/8088 microprocessors have two pins
labeled GND—both must be connected to
ground for proper operation
• Minimum/maximum mode pin selects either minimum or maximum mode
operation.
– if minimum mode selected, the MN/MX pin must
be connected directly to +5.0 V
• The bus high enable pin is used in 8086 to enable the most-significant data
bus bits
(D15–D8) during a read or a write operation.
The state of S7 is always a logic 1.
