Minimum-mode and Maximum-mode Systems

8088 and 8086 microprocessors can be configured to work in either of the two modes: the minimum mode and the maximum mode Minimum mode:
Pull MN/MX to logic 1 Typically smaller systems and contains a single microprocessor Cheaper since all control signals for memory and I/O are generated by the microprocessor.

A18/S5: The status of the
interrupt enable flag bit is updated at the beginning of each cycle. The status of the flag is indicated through this pin

A19/S6: When Low, it indicates that 8086 is in

control of the bus. During a "Hold acknowledge" clock period, the 8086 tri-states the S6 pin and thus allows another bus master to take control of the status bus.

8086 Memory Addressing

Data can be accessed from the memory in four different ways: 8 - bit data from Lower (Even) address Bank. 8 - bit data from Higher (Odd) address Bank. 16 - bit data starting from Even Address. 16 - bit data starting from Odd Address.

Write Machine Cycle

INTR (input)
Hardware Interrupt Request Pin
INTR is used to request a hardware interrupt. It is recognized by the processor only when IF = 1, otherwise it is ignored (STI instruction sets this flag bit). The request on this line can be disabled (or masked) by making IF = 0 (use instruction CLI) If INTR becomes high and IF = 1, the 8086 enters an interrupt acknowledge cycle (INTA becomes active) after the current instruction has completed execution.

For Discussion
If I/O peripheral wants to interrupt the processor, the interrupt controller will send high pulse to the 8086 INTR pin. What about if a simple system to be built and hardware interrupts are not needed; What to do with INTR and INTA?

NMI (input) Non-Maskable Interrupt line

The Non Maskable Interrupt input is similar to INTR except that the NMI interrupt does not check to see if the IF flag bit is at logic 1. This interrupt cannot be masked (or disabled) and no acknowledgment is required. It should be reserved for catastrophic events such as power failure or memory errors.

TEST (input)
The TEST pin is an input that is tested by the WAIT instruction. If TEST is at logic 0, the WAIT instruction functions as a NOP. If TEST is at logic 1, then the WAIT instruction causes the 8086 to idle, until TEST input becomes a logic 0. This pin is normally driven by the 8087 coprocessor (numeric coprocessor) . This prevents the CPU from accessing a memory result before the NDP has finished its calculation

Ready (input)
This input is used to insert wait states into processor Bus Cycle. If the READY pin is placed at a logic 0 level, the microprocessor enters into wait states and remains idle. If the READY pin is placed at a logic 1 level, it has no effect on the operation of the processor. It is sampled at the end of the T2 clock pulse Usually driven by a slow memory device

HOLD (input)
The HOLD input is used by DMA controller to request a Direct Memory Access (DMA) operation. If the HOLD signal is at logic 1, the microprocessor places its address, data and control bus at the high impedance state. If the HOLD pin is at logic 0, the microprocessor works normally.

HLDA (output) Hold Acknowledge Output

Hold acknowledge is made high to indicate to the DMA controller that the processor has entered hold state and it can take control over the system bus for DMA operation.
