Register Group
 It consists of PIPO registers.
 The register contain a set of binary storage cell/filp flop with
reading Writing facilities.
 It is used for temporary storage of instructions and data/address
hence, The number of bits in a register is equal
data/address/instruction size
The architecture of 8085 consists of three types of registers.
1. Temporary registers.
2. General purpose register
3. Special purpose register
Program Counter- Special
purpose register

 This 16-bit register deals with sequencing the


execution of instructions.
 This register is a memory pointer.
 The function of the program counter is to point to the
memory address from which the next byte is to be
fetched.
 When a byte is being fetched, the program counter is
automatically incremented by one to point to the next
memory location
Stack Pointer- Special purpose
register
 Stack Pointer (SP) The stack pointer is also a 16-bit
register, used as a memory pointer.
 It points to a memory location in R/W memory, called
stack.
 The beginning of the stack is defined by loading 16-
bit address in the stack pointer.
8-bit Accumulator-Special
purpose register
 It is an 8-bit general purpose register of 8085 but it has
some special function that’s why is called special purpose
register
 It has to private one of the operand for any ALU operations.
 It has to accumulate the result of ALU operations.
 It also works as a via register for I/O accesses i.e. whenever
a data is read from input devices , it accumulator and similarly
output device gets data from accumulator.
Flag register- Special purpose
register

 The Flag register of 8085 consists of five flag. They are


connected to ALU
 When an operation is performed by ALU the result is transferred
on internal data bus and status of result will be stored in flip flops.
The Flags register
 There is also a flag register whose bits are affected by the arithmetic &
logic operations.
 S-sign flag

 The sign flag is set if bit D7 of the accumulator is set after an


arithmetic or logic operation.
 Z-zero flag

 Set if the result of the ALU operation is 0. Otherwise is reset.


This flag is affected by operations on the accumulator as well
as other registers. (DCR B).
 AC-Auxiliary Carry

 This flag is set when a carry is generated from bit D3 and


passed to D4 . This flag is used only internally for BCD
operations.
 P-Parity flag

 After an ALU operation, if the result has an even # of 1s, the


p-flag is set. Otherwise it is cleared. So, the flag can be used
to indicate even parity.
 CY-carry flag

 This flag is set when a carry is generated from bit D7 after an


unsigned operation.
 OV-Overflow flag

 This flag is set when an overflow occurs after a signed


operation.
Instruction register- Special
purpose register
 This register is not accessible to the user.
 It is not programmable and can not be accessed through any
Instruction
 It is part of the ALU
Address Buffer , Address/Data
Buffer and Increment/Decrement
Address Buffer:
 This is 8-bit unidirectional buffer used for address lines.
 These are used to drive the higher order address bus
Address/Data Buffer:
 This is 8-bit bidirectional buffer used for address and data lines.
 These are used to drive the lower order address and data bus

Increment/Decrement register:
 This is 16 bit register
 It is used to increment or decrement address.
ALU:
 It perform arithmetic and logical operations
 It include accumulator ,temporary register and five flag
registers.
 The ALU is not available to the user.
 Its ward length depends upon the width of an internal data bus
i.e. 8-bit
 The ALU is always controlled by timing and control circuits.
 It accepts operand from accumulator and temporary register.
 It stores results of arithmetic and logic operation in
accumulator.
 It provide status of result to flag register
Timing and Control section
 It is made up of synchronous sequential logic circuit.
 It control all internal and external circuits in the
microprocessor
 It operate with reference to clock signal
 It accept information from instruction decoder and
generate micro steps to perform it.
 The control unit also generates timing signals
essential for microprocessor to operate.
Interrupt section
 It is a mechanism by which an I/O device or an
instruction can suspend the normal execution of the
processor and get itself serviced is called Interrupt.
 This block accepts different interrupt request inputs
such as TRAP, RST 7.5, RST 6.5, RST 5.5 and
INTR
 INTA is an acknowledge pin for mask able and
non- mask able interrupt request.
Serial I/O control group:
 This data transferred on to data bus is parallel data ,
but under certain condition it is advantage to use
serial data transfer.
 8085 implements by SID and SOD signals.
 SID line is used to received the data serially and SOD
line is used to send data serially.
 The data on these line is accepted or transferred under
software control
