Theory of Chapter 1 (Introduction To Microprocessor) and Chapter 2 (8085 Microprocessor) PDF

This document provides an overview of microprocessors and their applications: 1. A microprocessor is an integrated circuit that functions as the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer. It performs arithmetic and logical operations and controls data flow under the instructions stored in memory. 2. Microprocessors are used in embedded systems and real-time systems to control external events and hardware. They are programmed to constantly react to inputs or control specialized hardware like vehicle components. 3. As a programmable device, microprocessors can be instructed to perform various tasks on data. When a microprocessor acts as the CPU, the system is called a microcomputer.

instructions stored in the memory. A processor is the brain of a
computer which basically consists of Arithmetical and Logical Unit (ALU), Control Unit and Register Array. As the
name indicates ALU pe orms all arithmetic and logical operations on the data received from input devices or
memory. Register array consists of a series of registers like accumulator (A), B, C, D etc. which acts as temporary
fast access memory locations for processing data. As the name indicates, control unit controls the ow of instructions

The microprocessor is a programmable integrated device that has computing and decision-making capability similar
to that of the central processing unit(CPU) of the computer. • When microprocessor works as a CPU, then the system
is called a microcomputer. A microcontroller is a small computer on the single integrated ckt. Containing a processor
core, memory, and programmable input/output peripherals.

– Reactive systems are those that have an ongoing interaction with their environment - for
example, a re-control system that constantly reacts to bu ons pressed by a pilot. – Embedded systems are
those used to control specialized hardware in which the computer system is installed - for example, the
microprocessor system used to control the fuel/air mixture in the carburetor of many automobiles. • In
embedded systems the so ware system is completely encapsulated by the hardware that it controls.
2. μP AS A PROGRAMMABLE DEVICE • The fact that the μP is programmed means it can be instructed to
pe orm given tasks within its capability. Similarly, today’s μP is designed to understand and execute the
instructions. A programmer can select apt instructions and ask the μP to pe orm various tasks on a given
