The events that take place during the T3 state are determined by the kind of machine cycle in progress. In a FETCH machine cycle, the processor interprets the data on its data bus as an instruction. During a MEMORY READ or a STACK READ, data on this bus is interpreted as a data word. The processor outputs data on this bus during a MEMORY WRITE machine cycle. During I/O operations, the processor may either transmit or receive data, de- pending on whether an OUTPUT or an INPUT operation is involved.

Figure 4-7illustrates the timing that is characteristic of a data input operation. As shown, the low-to-high transi- tion of ¢2 during T2 clears status information from the pro- cessor's data lines, preparing these lines for the receipt of incoming data. The data presented to the processor must have stabilized prior to both the "¢1-data set-up" interval (tDS1), that precedes the falling edge of the ¢1 pulse defin- ing state T3, and the "¢2-data set-up" interval (tDS2), that precedes the rising edge of ¢2 in state T 3. This same

data must remain stable during the "data hold" interval (tDH) that occurs following the rising edge of the ¢2 pulse. Data placed on these lines by memory or by other external devices will be sampled during T3.

During the input of data to the processor, the 8080 generates a DBIN signal which should be used externally to enable the transfer. Machine cycles in which DBIN is avail- able include: FETCH, MEMORY READ, STACK READ, and INTERRUPT. DBIN is initiated by the rising edge of 1>2 during state T2 and terminated by the corresponding edge of ¢2 during T3· Any TW phases intervening between .T2 and T3 will therefore extend DBIN by one or more clock periods.

Figure 4-7shows the timing of a machine cycle in wh ich the processor outputs data. Output data may be des- tined either for memory or for peripherals. The rising edge of 1>2 within state T2 clears status information from the CPU's data lines, and loads in the data which is to be output to external devices. This substitution takes place within the

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.
