The crystal oscillator frequency in the Intel 8085 is divided by 2 because Intel designed it that way. Internal actions in the 8085 occur at various points in the cycle and, by dividing by 2, Intel could create 4 distinct points in the cycle where various edges could perform actions.
The 8085 microprocessor has an internal divide-by-two circuit that divides the frequency of the external crystal oscillator by two. This is done to synchronize the internal operations of the microprocessor with the external clock signal and ensure reliable data processing. It also helps in reducing power consumption and improving the stability of the system.
crystal is a oscilltor in microprocessor
The clock out frequency of an 8085 is one half the crystal frequency. The period of one T cycle is the inverse of the clock frequency. At a crystal frequency of 5MHz, the clock is 2.5MHz, and T is 400 ns.
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.
it has high stability large q factor and the frequency that doesn't drift with aging. It is used as a clock source most of the times.
The operating frequency of 8085 is 3 mhz to 5 mhz
The CLK signal in the 8085 is the system clock, which is the External Input Frequency or Crystal divided by two. It can be used to develop bus control logic, because it is essentially the inverse of ALE for one half clock cycle.
In order to determine the instructions per second in an 8085 microprocessor, you need to know how long each instruction takes to execute. Some are as short as 4 T cycles. Some are as long as 18 T cycles. This is dependent on how the program is written. Add up the T cycles for each instruction. Divide the clock frequency in hertz by the number of T cycles, and you get instructions per second. Note that clock frequency is one half of the crystal frequency. Note also that you must include Twait cycles in your calculation.
all the operations of microprocessor are carried out at active edge,it can either be a rising edge or falling edge.that's why freq. gets havled
The 8086 processor's operating frequency is derived from the crystal frequency through a process of division. Typically, the crystal frequency is set at a multiple of the desired processor frequency, often using a frequency divider. For instance, if the crystal frequency is 5 MHz, the 8086 can operate at 5 MHz, but with external circuitry, it can also achieve other frequencies based on the design of the clock circuits. Thus, the crystal frequency serves as the fundamental timing source for the processor's operation.
microprocessor 8085 is basic 8 bit microprocessor by Intel Corp. it has 64Kb memory and 16 address buses and 8 data buses it has 40 pin ic. 8 address and 8 data buses are multiplexed with each other for reducing the total number of pins from the microprocessor 8085 . it require 5MHz clock frequency for operation. only a crystal which connected easily across two pins of microprocessor can provide this clock.
that depends on the microcontroller. check the datasheet.
