Learn 8086 Microprocessor With Proteus Circuit

Simulations
8086 examples that we have designed by using Proteus, resources for
understanding 8086 microprocessors

While we were in the third class of the college, as computer engineering students, we
had to have a good understanding of the microprocessors. That is why the college
offers a compulsory course which is 8086 microprocessors as part of the Yildiz
Technical University CE curriculum.
In this course, we try to understand the 8086 and design mini circuits which serve as
the starting point to the actual computer architecture design.
Here, together with my close friend ‘Mert Öz’, we have uploaded all the circuit designs
into our GitHub accounts and we would like to share the circuits we have designed for
those who want to better understand Proteus 8086 circuits as well as understanding
8086 in detail.
The main reason we want to share these proteus examples is that when we were taking
the course, there were not any resources that shows these basics of the 8086 circuits.
We had to spend hours understanding little things. We hope you will not waste that
much time while learning and have these circuit designs as an opportunity to start
with 8086 circuits.
Let’s now get started with the examples and the circuits designs. Here, my designs and
my friend’s designs are not the same. The problem sets are quite close but they solve
different problems. So I suggest you inspect both of them.

1- 7SEG with Buttons

Here we have 8 buttons in sequence.
We want to light up the following sections of the 7SEGs when buttons being pressed.
Button 1 -> 7SEG a
Button 2 -> 7SEG b
Button 3 -> 7SEG c
Button 4 -> 7SEG d
Button 5 -> 7SEG e
Button 6 -> 7SEG f
Button 7 -> 7SEG g
Button 8 -> 7SEG h
My Solution:
Button 1 Pressed: 7SEG a active.
Button 2 Pressed: 7SEG b active.
Button 3 Pressed: 7SEG c active.
Mert’s Solution:
2.1- Displaying the Given Binary Number Using 8255

Mert’s Solution:
Given binary input is shown in the 7SEG.
2.2- Multiply And Take Half of The Given Binary Input By Using 8255
Here we want to take the double of the given input from the buttons if the toggle shows
1. If the toggle shows 0, then we take half of the given input.
My Solution:
Input 2 with Toggle 0
Input 4 With Toggle 1
3- 8255 Keypad
In this example, we have 4 pieces 7SEGs and a keypad.
All 7SEGs at first set to 0.
As we type into the keypad, numbers are being saved.
‘#’ takes the last action back(it caches old actions).
Holding on to the start(‘*’) resets all the 7SEGs to 0.
My solution:
At First All 7 SEGs set to 0
As We Type, numbers comes from right to left
We filled 4 of the 7 SEGs with numbers.
Lets Keep Typing. Later we will take these action back.
Keep Typing
Take the last actions back by pressing #

By pressing star, we set all 7SEGs to 0.
4-Double 8255 Input and Output Handshaking

In this circuit, one of the 8255 takes the input from the buttons and sends the buttons it
reads to the second 8255.
The second 8255 takes the input and shows what was being pressed on the 7SEG.
This example does not work properly. It turns out there exists some problem in the
communication of 8255s. But I hope, it still helps you.
My Solution:
8255 Handshaking
4.1- Performing arithmetic operations using 8255 in mode-1

Mert’s Solution:
Simple Arithmatic Operations Using 8255 mod 1
5- 8251 Solve Top Secret
In this problem, we need to get the top-secret from a device. The device works as
follows:
We first send ‘SR’
The device sends ‘A’
We send ‘D’
The device sends the top-secret in the following format
First, the length of the top-secret which can be either ‘1’, ‘2’ or ‘3’
Then, sends the actual top secret.
After we get the top-secret we send a request to close the communication by

sending ‘ST’.
The device acknowledges us and terminates the communication by sending ‘P’
The following image summarizes the problem:
The way we communicate with the device that has the top secret.

6- 8254 Pulse and Square Wave

In this problem, we generate a pulse and square waves by using 8254. The problems
are different in my solution and Mert’s solution. Check out the GitHub repo to see
different problems.
Generate Pulse and Square Waves

7- Analog To Digital Converter

Here we have given an analog signal. We need to convert the analog signal into a
digital signal.
It turns out I lost my solution.
Here the Mert Öz’s solution:
Conver The Analog Signal Into Digital
8- 8259 User Defined Interrupts

Here the problem is to increment the value of AX every 15 seconds.
My solution and Mert’s solution:
Every 15 Seconds, 8253 sends an interrupt request to the 8259.
8259 informs the 8086 about the interrupt and then interrupt subroutine runs when
8086 is available.
The value of the AX register is being incremented when 8086 becomes available
and run the interrupt subroutine.
We show the output using 8255 and a 7SEG.
Circuit that increments the value of AX every 15 seconds. 7SEG shows the current value of AX.
Extra Resources For Learning 8086 Processors
These days, it's quite hard to find high-quality 8086 lessons on the internet.
But don't worry, we had these concerns before you and found a perfect resource.
If you don't know assembly language yet and still want to learn 8086 microprocessors,
this course is perfect for you because it also has an assembly course before starting
with the 8086 microprocessors. The course starts from the basics of the assembly up
until advanced topics of the 8086. The price of the course I think is well worth it. (Price
of 2019–20).
By the way, you may have questions like, I already know assembly, wouldn’t it be a
waste of my money to invest in? As it comes into my mind :) I think still worth it if you
really want to get an A out of the 8086 courses or want to learn the 8086
microprocessors.
Before buying the course, I strongly suggest you watch the first lesson of the course.

see it.)
Contributions To The Github Repository

If you learn the 8086 circuits, you will probably design some circuits on proteus or on
some other program. I strongly suggest you take some time to contribute to the GitHub
repository by adding your designs so that future 8086 learners understand even better
by building upon our collective knowledge.
