- INTRODUCTION ABOUT THIS COURSE
- A microprocessor is an integrated circuit which can function as a central processing unit (CPU) of a computer system or a microcontroller. It is constructed by integrating millions of transistors, diodes and resistors on a single electronic chip.
- 8085 and 8086 are two major types of microprocessors produced by Intel. The 8085 microprocessor is an 8-bit microprocessor while The 8086 microprocessor is a 16-bit microprocessor.
- Microprocessor can perform operations given below:
- Operates on and stores 8-bit and 16 bit data.
- It executes arithmetic and logic operations.
- sequences the instructions to be executed.
- Stores data temporarily.
