 Minimum mode of 8086
• When the Minimum mode operation is selected, the 8086 provides all
control signals needed to implement the memory and I/O interface.

Fig 3.7 Memory interfacing to 8086
For the applications that require huge amounts of data transfer
to memory from a magnetic or optical disk a dedicated hardware
device called DMA controller is used.
The DMA controller temporarily borrows the address bus ,data
bus and control bus from the microprocessor and transfers the
data bytes directly from the disk controller to a series of memory
locations.
Some DMA devices even can do memory to memory transfers.
