Describe the functions of following registers of 8051 i. PC ii. DPTR (04)
1B. Write an ALP to check whether 8 bit binary number stored in 60H is available in an
array in external locations starting from 0500H to 051DH; if available store the number
in accumulator and address of location of first appearance in P1 and P2, Also display
the count of availability at port ‘0’. (03)
1C. What is the role of stack pointer register in accessing the stack memory? What is the
default stack memory space in 8051? Describe the PUSH and POP instructions of 8051
in detail by taking a relevant example. (03)

2A. Three 8 bit numbers X, N1 and N2 are stored in internal data RAM locations 20H, 21H
and 22H respectively. Write an 8051 ALP to perform the following operations
If X=00H; then LSB of 23H = LSB of N1 (AND) LSB of N2,
If X=01H; then MSB of 23H = MSB of N1 (OR) MSB of N2,
If X=02H; then MSB of 23H = compliment of MSB of N2. (04)

i. Power on Reset circuit with connection diagram
ii. Alternate functions assigned to each of the pins of Port “3”. (03)

4A. Write an 8051 program to read the status of the switches connected to pins P1.0 and
P1.1. Wait till a switch is closed and if switch P1.0 is closed; transmit serially the
message “Normal Speed” at 19200 baud. If P1.1 is closed, transmit serially the message
“High speed” at 19200 baud rate. XTAL=11.0592MHz. (04)
4B. Interface a matrix key board in a 2X 5 matrix form containing ten keys ‘0’ to ‘4’ in Row 1
and ‘5’ to ‘9’ in Row 2 , to 8051. Use port ‘0’( P0.0 and P0.1) pins for the rows and port
‘1’ pins ( P1.0 to P1.4) for the columns. Show the connection diagram and write an
8051 ALP to detect any key pressed and transfer the ASCII code of the key pressed to
port ‘2’. Use software debouncing technique. Assume XTAL=11.059sMHz. (04)
4C. Explain the importance of busy flag in LCD. How can it be accessed? Also suggest an
alternate method to avoid writing to LCD before it is ready. (02)

5A. List and describe with an example, the various shift and rotate operations supported by (03)
ARM7 instruction set. Mention constraints, if any in case of each of these operations.
5B. Write a note on the register bank of ARM7 processor, indicating clearly the visible
registers in different modes of operation. Describe the functions of following bits of (04)
CPSR register: ‘N’, ‘Z’, ‘C’, ‘V’, ‘I’ and ‘F’.
5C. 16 bit data corresponding to armature current, armature resistance, series field
resistance and terminal voltage of a DC compound generator are available in successive
memory locations starting at 0X00009000 ( ‘2’ memory locations for each data). Write (03)
an ARM7 ALP to determine the EMF generated and store the result in next ‘4’ memory
locations. ( .
