Why all the 16 address lines are not act as a data lines in 8085 microprocessor?
the 8085 microprocessor is a 8-bit microprocessor and these are bidirectional but the address lines are unidirectional.these address lines are used to address the location of the instruction in memory .these data lines are used to transfer data between processor and peripheral devices. when the address of the instruction will be recognized by the address lines the data will be send to the processor therefore the 16 address lines are not act as a data lines in 8085
What is the Overview of 8085 microprocessor?
8085 is a 8 bit microprocessor designed by Intel Co.
Why microcomputer system based on 8 bit microprocessor have 64K memory?
Even though the 8085 is an 8 bit microprocessor, it can address 64K memory, because it has a 16 bit address bus.
How many bits in 8085 microprocessor?
The 8085 is an 8-bit microprocessor. Even though there are some 16-bit registers (BC, DE, HL, SP, PC), with some 16-bit operations that can be performed on them, and a 16-bit address bus, the accumulator (A), the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), and the data bus are 8-bits in size, making the 8085 an 8-bit computer.
Why 8085 cannot be 16-bit microprocessor?
Because it is an 8-bit microprocessor.
What is a 8085 microprocessor?
with neat diagram explain the system bus structure of 8085
Why the 16 bit 8085 microprocessor is not possible?
The 8085 was replaced with the 8086/8088. As such, there is no 16 bit version of the 8085.
What is HL pair in 8085 microprocessor?
HL is a register pair used to store 16 bit of data in 8085 microprocessor.
How many bit input is given to a microprocessor?
8 bit input is given to Intel 8085 microprocessor.
Why memory capacity of 8085 mp is 64 KB?
The memory capacity of the 8085 microprocessor is 64 kb because the address bus is 16 bits, and you can address 216, or 64kb, with a 16 bit address bus.
What is the reason for naming microprocessor as 8085 and microcontroller as 8051?
b/c the 8085 microprocessor is the first 8 bit microprocessor which Intel is produces in 1877 and this is the first general purpose 8 bit microprocessor. there was an 8 bit general purpose register before 8085 named as 8008 but this microprocessor is not functional 8 bit microprocessor
What is the difference between the Intel 8085 and the Intel 8086?
The Intel 8085 is an 8 bit microprocessor created in 1977.The Intel 8086 is a 16 bit microprocessor created in 1978. The 8086 was the first chip to start the x86 architecture family.8085 contains 16-bit address bus and 8-bit data bus8086 contains 20-bit address bus and 16-bit data bus..In 8085 the clock speed is 3MHZwhere as in 8086 the clock speed is 5MHZ.there are two differences btw 8085&80861. 8086 has 6 byte queue but 8085 has 4 byte queue2. 8086 has 16 bit data bus where as 8085 has 8 bit data bus
