In the context of the 8085 microprocessor, a "mask" refers to a specific bit pattern used to enable or disable certain bits in a data byte during operations like masking or bit manipulation. By applying a mask using bitwise operations (AND, OR, etc.), programmers can isolate or modify specific bits in a register or memory location without affecting others. This is particularly useful for tasks such as setting or clearing flags, managing control registers, or handling input/output operations.
The TRAP instruction in the 8085 is NONMASKABLE, which means it cannot be masked, i.e. it cannot be disabled. The only way to mask or disable TRAP is with external hardware, such as an I/O pin and an AND gate.
RIM is Read Interrupt Mask. It is used to access the interrupt mask register, which contains the status of the three interrupt masks and the serial input data pin.
DI = Disable all interrupts (except TRAP) EI = Enable all interrupts Also, SIM can selectively mask RST5.5, RST6.5, and RST7.5.

The designation 8085 was given by Intel for an updated version of the 8080. The 8085 multiplexed the address bus, freeing up some pins, and Intel included newer functionality. The specific reason for the 5, in 8085, was to indicate that the 8085 operated on a single +5V power supply, unlike the 8080, which needed three power supplies, +5V, -5V, and +12V.
No. The 8086 has instructions not present in the 8085. The 8086 was marketed as "source compatible" with the 8085, meaning that there was a translator program which could convert assembly language code for the 8085 into assembly language code for the 8086. However, this does not mean that the compiled 8086 assembly code would then run on an 8085; among other things, the 8086 was a true 16-bit processor, as opposed to the 8085 which was an 8-bit processor that supported a few 16-bit operations.
The SIM instruction in the 8085 is Set Interrupt Mask. You can use it to set and clear the three interrupt masks for RST7.5, RST6.5, and RST5.5, as well as to set or clear the SOD (Serial Output Data) pin. You can also reset the pending RST7.5 interrupt, if desired.

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
