FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

~f WR. The ADo-AD7 lines are guaranteed to be stable both before and after the rising edge of WR.

1/0 WRITE (lOW):

As Figure 2-16 shows, the timing for an 1/0 WRITE (lOW) machine cycle is the same as an MW machine cycle except that 101M = 0 during the MW cycle and 101M = during the lOW cycle.

As with the lOR cycle discussed previously, the address used in an lOW cycle is the 1/0 port number which is duplicated on both the high and low bytes of the address bus. In the case of lOW, the port number comes from the second byte of an OUTPUT instruction as the instruc- tion is executed.

2.3.4Interrupt Acknowledge (INA) Timing

Figures 2-17 and 2-18 (a continuation of 2-17) depict the course of action the CPU takes in response to a high level on the INTR line if the INTE FF (interrupt enable flip-flop) has been set

by the EI instruction. The status of the TRAP and RST pins as well as INTR is sampled during the second clock cycle before M1 • T1. If INTR was the only valid interrupt and if INTE FF is set, then the CPU will reset INTE FF and then enter an INTERRUPT ACKNOWLEDGE (INA) machine cycle. The INA cycle is identical to an OF cycle with two exceptions. INTA is sent out instead of RD. Also, 101M = 1 during INA, whereas 101M = 0 for OF. Although the con- tents of the program counter are sent out on the address lines, the address lines can be ignored.

When INTA is sent out, the external interrupt logic must provide the opcode of an instruction to execute. The opcode is placed on the data bus and read in by the processor. If the opcode is the first byte of a multiple-byte instruction, additional INTA pulses will be provided by the 8085A to clock in the remaining bytes. RESTART and CALL instructions are the most

MCS-80/85 specifications

The Intel MCS-80/85 family, introduced in the late 1970s, is a seminal collection of microprocessors that played a pivotal role in the early days of computing. The MCS-80 series, initially targeting embedded systems and control applications, gained remarkable attention due to its innovative architecture and flexible programming capabilities.

The MCS-80 family is anchored by the 8080 microprocessor, which was one of the first fully integrated 8-bit microprocessors. Released in 1974, the 8080 operated at clock speeds ranging from 2 MHz to 3 MHz and featured a 16-bit address bus capable of addressing up to 64KB of memory. The processor’s instruction set included around 78 instructions, providing extensive capabilities for data manipulation, logic operations, and branching.

Complementing the 8080 was a suite of support chips, forming the MCS-80 platform. The most notable among them was the 8155, which integrated a static RAM, I/O ports, and a timer, tailored for ease of designing systems around the 8080. Other support chips included the 8085, which provided improvements with an integrated clock generator, making it compatible with more modern designs and applications.

The MCS-85 series, on the other hand, revolves around the 8085 microprocessor, which provided a more advanced architecture. The 8085 operated at clock speeds of up to 6 MHz and came with a 16-bit address bus, similar to its predecessor. However, it introduced more sophisticated features, including an enhanced instruction set and support for interrupt-driven programming. These enhancements made the 8085 especially appealing to developers working in real-time processing environments.

The MCS-80/85 family utilized NMOS technology, known for its lower power consumption and higher performance compared to previous technologies like TTL. The family’s architecture allowed for easy interfacing with a variety of peripherals, making it a favorite for educational institutions and hobbyists embarking on computer engineering projects.

With its robustness, versatility, and affordability, the Intel MCS-80/85 microprocessors laid the groundwork for many subsequent microcomputer systems and applications. The legacy of this powerful family continues to influence modern microprocessor design, emphasizing the importance of reliable architecture in a rapidly evolving technology landscape.
