STUDY OF MAJOR CIRCUIT COMPONENTS

What is a Microprocessor?

• A microprocessor is a clock-driven semiconductor device consisting of

electronic logic circuits manufactured by using either a large-scale integration
(LSI) or very-large-scale integration (VLSI) technique.
• The microprocessor is capable of performing various computing functions and
making decisions to change the sequence of program execution.
• In large computers, a CPU performs these computing functions. The
Microprocessor resembles a CPU exactly.
• The microprocessor is in many ways similar to the CPU, but includes all the
logic circuitry including the control unit, on one chip.
• The microprocessor can be divided into three segments for the sake of clarity. –
They are: arithmetic/logic unit (ALU), register array, and control unit.

Microprocessor is a multi-use device which finds applications in almost all the

fields. Here is some sample applications given in variety of fields.

Electronics:

• Digital clocks & Watches

• Mobile phones
• Measuring Meters

Mechanical:

• Automobiles
• All remote machines

Electrical:

• Motors
• Lighting controls
• Power stations
ARCHITECHTURE or FUNCTIONAL BLOCK
DIAGRAM OF 8085

The functional block diagram or architechture of 8085

Microprocessor is very important as it gives the complete details
about a Microprocessor. Fig. shows the Block diagram of a
Microprocessor.
PROGRAMMABLE PERIPHERAL INTERFACE -
INTEL 8255

Pins, Signals and internal block diagram of 8255:

• It has 40 pins and requires a single +5V supply.

Interfacing of 8255 with 8085 processor:

• A simple schematic for interfacing the 8255 with 8085 processor

is shown in fig.
• The 8255 can be either memory mapped or I/O mapped in the
system. In the schematic shown in above is I/O mapped in the
system.

• Using a 3-to-8 decoder generates the chip select signals for I/O
mapped devices.

• The address lines A4, A5 and A6 are decoded to generate eight

chip select signals (IOCS-0 to IOCS-7) and in this, the chip select
IOCS- 1 is used to select 8255.

• The address line A7 and the control signal IO/M (low) are used
as enable for the decoder.

• The address line A0 of 8085 is connected to A0 of 8255 and A1 of

8085 is connected to A1 of 8255 to provide the internal
addresses.

• The data lines D0-D7 are connected to D0-D7 of the processor to

achieve parallel data transfer.

• The I/O addresses allotted to the internal devices of 8255 are

listed in table.
