When the READ pin is low on the 8086 microprocessor, it indicates that the processor is in a read cycle, signaling that it is requesting data from memory or an I/O device. During this cycle, the microprocessor places the address of the desired data on the address bus and activates the necessary control signals to read the data. The data is then transferred from the memory or I/O device to the data bus for processing. This operation is crucial for retrieving information needed for the execution of programs.

WHAT IS THE PINS CONFIGURATION OF 8086?
The MN/MX- ping on the 8086 is pin 33.
See the related link, below, for the 8086/8088 pinout.
Pin 28 on the 8086/8088 is M/IO-, in minimum mode. The equivalent pin on the 8085 is IO/M-, and has opposite polarity.
The 8086 family of microprocessors, including the 8086, 80C86, and 80C86AL, are presented in 40-pin DIP packages.
40 PINS
In the 8086, pin 35 (A19/S6) is used as the high order address bit during the beginning of each memory access cycle. Afterwards, it is a spare status pin and is unused.
it is a 16 bit microprocessor & it has 40 pin .
In the 8086 microprocessor, the ALE (Address Latch Enable) pin is used to synchronize slow peripherals. This pin indicates that the address bus contains a valid address, allowing slower devices to latch the address for data transfer operations. By using ALE, the 8086 ensures proper timing and coordination with external components, facilitating effective communication with peripherals.
The 8086 comes in a 40 pin package with 2 ground pins and one power pin; the remaining 37 signal pins every single one is important.
The BHE (Bus High Enable) pin on the 8086 is latched by the 8282 in order to indicate if a write cycle is a word (BHE=1) or byte (BHE=0) cycle.
