15. What are the interrupts of Intel 8085?

Intel 8085 has five kinds of interrupts.

1 TRAP (Highest Priority).

2 RST 7.5
3 RST 6.5
4. RST 5.5

5. INTR (Lowest Priority). he o

The Accumulator is the Register Associated with the ALU operations and
to be
sometimes I/O operations. It is an integral part of ALU. It holds one of data
stores the result of the operation
processed by ALU. It also temporarily
performed by the ALU.

19. Mention the purpose of SID
and SOD lines?
SID-Serial Input Data Line:
It is an
input line through which the
microprocessor accepts serial dala.
SOD Serial Output Data Line:
It is an output line through which the microprocessor sends
output serial
data.

A JMP instruction permanently changes the program counter. A CALL
A
instruction leaves information on the stack so that the original program execution
sequence can be resumed.

TRAP is a vectored, high priority, non maskable interrupt i.e., it cannot b
disabled by any instruction and it has the highest priority. It requires both t
leading-edge and a high-level in order for 8085 to respond to the interupt.i
order to accept another interrupt on the TRAP ine, the previous TRAP intemu
can be disabled by the falling edge.

Hhat is a stack in an 8085
microcomputer system? Anna Univ, Nov' 12
Stack is a set of memory locations in the R/W memory specified by the
nrogrammer in a main program. The stack is shared by the programmer and the

microprocessor. Ihe programmer can store and retrieve the contents of a register
pair by using PUSH and POP instructions.

63. What is indexing? JAnna Univ., Nov' 12

Indexing means Pointing or Referencing Objects with sequential numbers. In a
library, books are aranged according to numbers and they are referred to or
sorted by numbers. This is called Indexing.

64. What is the function ofprogram counter in 8085 microprocessor?

Anna Univ, May '13
Program Counter is a 16-bit register sequencing the execution of operations. Itis
also called Memory Pointer. The function ofthis register is to hold the address of
the instruction which is to be executed next.
