3MHz happens to be slightly less than the maximum CLK speed (3.125 MHZ) of the most common variety of the 8085 (8085AH).
MAximum clock frequency of 8086 is 5MHZ.
3MHz
yes
At a crystal frequency of 6MHz, the 8085 microprocessor has a clock frequency of 3MHz, or a period of 333 nanoseconds. The NOP instruction requires four clock cycles, three to fetch and one to execute, so the NOP instruction with a crystal frequency of 6MHz would take 1.333 microseconds to fetch and execute. This does not include wait states, each of which would add 0.333 microseconds to the timing.
The delay is calculated in 8085 by making the use of formulas. Because of the complexity of the mathematical operations a calculator may also be required.
8085 is a microprocessor designed by Intel
In the 8085, the internal clock frequency is internally divided by two. Since the basic operating timing frequency is 3 MHz, a 6 MHz crystal is connected externally. Now, it is because, One reason to divide a clock by two is to obtain an even 50% duty cycle square wave. It may be that the 8085 internally uses both clock edges, and wouldn't function if one half of the cycle happened to be much shorter than the other. In the days when the 8085 was new, those nice canned oscillators weren't common, and people often cobbled together clock circuits out of discrete Crystal, capacitors, and logic gates. Dividing by two ensures that you have equally spaced rising and falling edges. As for 6.144MHz, you will find that it can be divided by an integer to get common baud rate values, at least up to 38400.
The 8085 was replaced with the 8086/8088. As such, there is no 16 bit version of the 8085.
The 8085 has a single +5V power supplyThe 8085 has a multiplexed low order address busThe 8085 has extra single pin interrupts, TRAP, RST7.5, RST6.5, and RST5.5The 8085 has serial I/O pins SID and SODThe 8085 has maskable interrupts and the RIM/SIM instructionThe 8085 includes the functionality of the 8224 clock genereator and 8228 system controllerThe 8085 added several 16 bit operations
The 8085 was introduced by Intel in 1977.
The 8085 is not pipelined.
The '8085' in the 8085 microprocessor is the designation given to the microprocessor by Intel. The '5' means it is a single power supply (5 volt) version of the 8080, with enhancements.
