The 8086 takes two cycles to fetch words from an odd address because the Bus Interface Unit (BIU) actually only deals with words, which are two bytes at an even address. If you perform an operation on a byte, the BIU will do a word operation, but it will leave the other byte alone. If you perform a word operation at an even address, the BIU can do the operation in one cycle. If the word, however, is at an odd address, the BIU must use two cycles, leaving the respective "other" byte alone in each case. For performance sake, always align your data with the bus design.

How many machine cycles require for call instruction in 8086?
It depends on the type of architecture and controller u use. It can be found in the instruction set documentation. It requires 18 cycles on the Intel 8085.How_many_machine_cycles_require_for_call_instruction_in_8085
Why 8086 microprocessor do not have op-code fetch cycle?
Every processor has an op-code fetch cycle. Otherwise, it would not be able to fetch instructions. In the case of the 8086, the three status lines S2, S1, and S0 will have high, low, and low values to indicate an op-code fetch.
Hoe to calculate the number of machine cycle and opcode fetch of any instruction?
It is not possible to calculate the number of machine cycles from first principles without going into design details of the CPU in question. You will need the reference book or card for the specific microprocessor model you are using. That will give you the actual number of cycles that are required for each instruction family. Note that many instructions take a variable number of cycles based on where they fetch their operands from. In the 8088 and 8086, in many cases the number of machine cycles is given in the form "4+EA". This means that you have to look up the number of cycles for a specific Effective Address, which is part of the op code, and add it to the number of cycles to execute the op code. There will be a table of machine stated for each type of Effective Address determination as well. Older machines like the 8085, 8086, and 8088 will actually have a few instructions, notably rotate and shift instructions, where the time is given as something like "4+2s". In these cases, the value "s" is the number of positions you are shifting the operand; to shift it 7 places takes 14 machine states, over and above the initial 2.
What is the size of address bus in 8086?
The address bus in the 8085 is 16 bits wide.
What is physical address in 8086 microprocessor?
Physical address in the 8086/8088 is {Selected Segment Register} * 16 + {Effective Offset Address}. It is a 20-bit address .
Size of 8086 address bus?
The 8086/8088 has an internal 20-bit address bus and 16-bit data bus. Externally, the address bus is 20-bits, and the data bus is 16-bits for the 8086 and 8-bits for the 8088.The data bus in the 8086 is 16 bits in size, while the address bus is 20.
Which is faster- Reading word size data whose starting address is at even or at odd address of memory in 8086?
In the 8086 microprocessor, reading word-sized data is generally faster from an even address than from an odd address. This is because the 8086 architecture is designed to access memory in 16-bit (word) chunks, and even addresses allow the processor to retrieve data more efficiently, aligning with its access patterns. When a word is at an odd address, the processor must perform an additional cycle to fetch the data, resulting in slower access times.
What is the size of RAM that 8086 can address?
8086 has 20 address lines. Therefore it can address 220 bits or 1,048,576 bits of memory, or roughly 1 MB (mega byte).
How many memory address does this number of address lines allow the 8086 to access directly?
