Flashcards Summary

Q: What are the clock input pins of 8085?

A: X1 and X2 are for connecting a crystal oscillator to generate the clock.

Q: What is the function of RESET-OUT?

A: Indicates the processor is being reset, used to reset peripherals.

Q: What is SOD in 8085?

A: SOD stands for Serial Output Data, used for serial communication.

Q: What is SID in 8085?

A: SID stands for Serial Input Data, used for receiving serial input.

Q: List the interrupts available in 8085.

A: TRAP, RST 7.5, RST 6.5, RST 5.5, INTR (with INTA for acknowledgment).

Q: What are AD0-AD7 used for?

A: These are multiplexed Address/Data lines used for lower-order address and data transfer.

Q: What are A8-A15?

A: These are higher-order Address lines, used only for address.

Q: Function of IO/M in 8085?

A: Distinguishes between I/O and memory operations.

Q: Function of ALE?

A: Address Latch Enable - used to demultiplex AD0-AD7.

Q: What does RD do?

A: Read signal (active low) to read from memory or I/O.

Q: What does WR do?

A: Write signal (active low) to write to memory or I/O.

Q: Purpose of READY pin?


Intel 8085 Microprocessor Pinout Summary

A: Used to delay the microprocessor if peripherals are not ready.

Q: Purpose of HOLD and HLDA?

A: Used for DMA operations - HOLD requests control, HLDA acknowledges.

Q: What is the function of CLK pin?

A: Provides the system clock output to synchronize peripherals.

Q: What do VCC and VSS stand for?

A: VCC is +5V power supply, VSS is ground.

Q: What is RESET-IN?

A: Used to reset the microprocessor externally.

Q: Major control signals in 8085?

A: IO/M, RD, WR.

Q: What are the status signals?

A: S0 and S1 indicate the type of operation in progress.
