Interfacing 8251 USART with 8085 Microprocessor


MicroprocessorMicrocontroller8085

The 8251 chip is Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART).


It acts as a mediator between the microprocessor and peripheral devices. It
converts serial data to parallel form and vice versa. This chip is 28 pin DIP.

Now let us see the functional block diagram of the 8251 chip.

There are five different sections in this diagram. These sections are as follows −

Read/ Write control logic

Data Bus Buffer


Modem Control.

Interfacing 8251 with8085

Now let us see how 8251 can be interfaced with 8085. In the diagram, we can see
that eight data lines D7-0 are connected to the data bus of the microprocessor. And
also the RD and WR of the 8251 are also connected with the RD and RD of 8051. The
8251 is getting the clock from the CLK OUT pin of 8085. And the RESET is also
connected to the RESET OUT pin of the microprocessor.

The C/D pin is used to select either control register or data register. This pin
is connected to the A0 pin of 8085. The CS pin of 8251 is attached to the output of
an address decoder circuit. The address decoder uses A7 to A1 lines of the
microprocessor. In this diagram the CS will be enabled when A7 and A4 is at logic
1, and all other lines are at logic 0.

From the following table, we can see how to read or write data word, read the
status word and write control word.
