In 8086 Processor The pins and Signals are
Divided Into 5 Categories:
1.Address/data Bus
2.Address/Status Bus
3.Control and Status Signals
4.Interruptes and Externally Initiated Signal
5.Power Supply and Clock frequency Signals
1.Address/Data Bus[AD0-AD15 Pins 16 to2
,39]:. In First clock cycle ,during ALE they
Contain Address Information (A0 to A15) & in
Remaining cycles they contain data(D0 to
D15)
2.Address/Status Bus[A16/S3-A19:Pins 38-
35]:
. In First clock cycle ,during ALE they Contain
Address Information (A16 to A19) & in
Remaining cycles they contain status information(S3-S6)
3.Control & Status Signals
=>RD:Read[output]:pin 32
A low on this signal indicates read operation from memory or I/O
=>BHE/S7 (Bus High Enable/ S7 output): pin34
.It is a low Signal . when low it enables the Msb databus (D8-D15) during read/write operation.
=>NMI : Non mask able interrupt : Pin 17
This is a non mask able Interrupt request to cpu from external devices
=>INTR: Interrupt(Input):Pin 18
It can be enabled or disabled using interrupt flag
=>RESET : Reset(Input):Pin 21
This is a Input signal which resets the
Microprocessor
=>READY : Ready (Input):Pin22
This signal indicates to the CPU whether memory or I/O device is ready For Data Transfer
=> TEST : test (input): Pin23
This Input Signal is used to Synchronize external hardware.
=>MN/MX : Minimum/Maximum : Pin 33
This Signals Selects The Minimum or Maximum mode of operation of the Microprocessor. If low then it is in maximum mode ,if high it works in minimum mode
1.) GND: Ground (input) :Pin 1&20
This Input should be connected to the negative terminal of the DC power supply
2.) CLK: clock(input):pin 19
This input clock signal provides the basic timing for the microprocessor with 33% Duty cycle
=>3.)Vcc :power Supply (input) : Pin 40
This input is connected to the positive terminal of +5V DC power supply
There are 8 signals in these configuration
1.ALE(Address Latch Enable):pin 25
This is used to latch the address & BHE signal
2.DEN(DATA ENABLE): pin26
It is used to activate Data Transceivers
3.DT/R(Data Transmit/Receive):pin 27
It is used to control direction of data bus on data transceivers
4.M/IO(Memory /Input-Output ):pin 28
This signal Selects memory or I/O Operation
5.WR(Write):pin 30
6.INTA(Interrupt Acknowledge):pin 24
7.HLDA(Hold Acknowledge) :pin 30
8.HOLD: Hold
1.Qs1,QS0: Queue Status : pin 24&25
2.S0,S1,S2:Status bits : pin 26,27,28
3.LOCK :pin 29
4.RQ1/GT1,RQ0/GT0: Request/Grant : pin
30,31
