INTRODUCTION TO 8086 MICROPROCESSOR

Computers

Fig.1 shows a block diagram of a simple computer. The major parts are the

central processing unit

or CPU,

memory

and the

input and output circuitry

or I/O and three setsof parallel lines called

Buses

connecting these parts together. The three buses are called

address bus

data bus

and

control bus

Memory

The memory section usually consists of RAM and ROM. It may also havemagnetic floppy disks, magnetic hard disks or laser option disks. Memory has two purposes. The first purpose is to store the binary codes for the sequence of instructionsyou want the computer to carryout. The second purpose of the memory is to store the binary-coded data with which the computer is going to be working.

Input/Output

The input/output or I/O section allows the computer to take in data from theoutside world or send data to the outside world. Peripherals such as keyboards, videodisplay terminals, printers and modems are connected to the I/O section. These allow theuser and the computer to communicate with each other. The actual physical devices usedto interface the computer buses to external systems are often called

ports.

Central Processing Unit

The Central Processing unit or CPU controls the operation of the computer. Itfetches the binary-coded instructions from memory, decodes the instructions into a series
