Accumulator
 It the main register of microprocessor.
 It is also called register ‘A’.
 It is an 8-bit register.
 It is used in the arithmetic and logic operations.
 It always contains one of the operands on which

arithmetic/logic has to be performed.
 After the arithmetic/logic operation, the contents of
accumulator are replaced by the result.
9
Arithmetic & Logic Unit (ALU)
It performs various arithmetic and logic operations.
The data is available in accumulator and

temporary/general purpose registers.
Arithmetic Operations:
Addition, Subtraction, Increment, Decrement etc.
Logic Operations:
AND, OR, X-OR, Complement etc.
10
Temporary Register
It is an 8-bit register.
It is used to store temporary 8-bit operand from

general purpose register.
It is also used to store intermediate results.
11
Status Flags
Status Flags are set of flip-flops which are used to
check the status of Accumulator after the operation is
performed.
12
Status Flags
S = Sign Flag
Z = Zero Flag
AC = Auxiliary Carry Flag
P = Parity Flag
CY = Carry Flag
13
Status Flags
Sign Flag (S):
It tells the sign of result stored in Accumulator after the

operation is performed.
If result is –ve, sign flag is set (1).
If result is +ve, sign flag is reset (0).
14
Status Flags
Zero Flag (Z):
It tells whether the result stored in Accumulator is zero

or not after the operation is performed.
If result is zero, zero flag is set (1).
If result is not zero, zero flag is reset (0).
15
Status Flags
Auxiliary Carry Flag (AC):
It is used in BCD operations.
When there is carry in BCD addition, we add 0110 (6) to

the result.
If there is carry in BCD addition, auxiliary carry is set

(1).
If there is no carry, auxiliary carry is reset (0).
16
Status Flags
Parity Flag (P):
It tells the parity of data stored in Accumulator.
If parity is even, parity flag is set (1).
If parity is odd, parity flag is reset (0).
17
Program Status Word (PSW)
The contents of Accumulator and Status Flags clubbed
together is known as Program Status Word (PSW).
It is a 16-bit word.
18
Instruction Register
It is used to hold the current instruction which the
microprocessor is about to execute.
It is an 8-bit register.
19
Instruction Decoder
It interprets the instruction stored in instruction
register.
It generates various machine cycles depending upon
the instruction.
The machine cycles are then given to the Timing and
Control Unit.
20
Timing and Control Unit
It controls all the operations of microprocessor and
peripheral devices.
Depending upon the machine cycles received from
Instruction Decoder, it generates 12 control signals:
S0 and S1 (Status Signals).
ALE (Address Latch Enable).
21
Timing and Control Unit
RD (Read, active low).
WR (Write, active low).
IO/M (Input-Output/Memory).
READY
RESET IN
RESET OUT
CLK OUT
HOLD and HLDA
22
General Purpose Registers
 There are 6 general purpose registers, namely B, C, D, E, H, L.
 Each of the them is 8-bit register.
 They are used to hold data and results.
 To hold 16-bit data, combination of two 8-bit registers can be used.
 This combination is known as Register Pair.
 The valid register pairs are:
 B – C, D – E, H – L.
23
Program Counter
It is used to hold the address of next instruction to be
executed.
It is a 16-bit register.
The microprocessor increments the value of Program

Counter after the execution of the current instruction,
so that, it always points to the next instruction.
24
Stack Pointer
It holds the address of top most item in the stack.
It is also 16-bit register.
Any portion of memory can be used as stack.
25
Increment/Decrement Register
This register is used to increment or decrement the
value of Stack Pointer.
During PUSH operation, the value of Stack Pointer is
incremented.
During POP operation, the value of Stack Pointer is
decremented.
26
Address Latch
It is group of 8 buffers.
The upper-byte of 16-bit address is stored in this latch.
And then it is made available to the peripheral devices.
27
Address/Data Latch
 The lower-byte of address and 8-bit of data are
multiplexed.
 It holds either lower-byte of address or 8-bits of data.
 This is decided by ALE (Address Latch Enable) signal.
 If ALE = 1 then
Address/Data Latch contains lower-byte of address.
 If ALE = 0 then
It contains 8-bit data.
28
Serial I/O Controller
It is used to convert serial data into parallel and
parallel data into serial.
Microprocessor works with 8-bit parallel data.
Serial I/O devices works with serial transfer of data.
Therefore, this unit is the interface between

microprocessor and serial I/O devices.
29
Interrupt Controller
It is used to handle the interrupts.
There are 5 interrupt signals in 8085:
TRAP
RST 7.5
RST 6.5
RST 5.5
INTR
30
Interrupt Controller
Interrupt controller receives these interrupts according
to their priority and applies them to the
microprocessor.
There is one outgoing signal INTA which is called
Interrupt Acknowledge.
31
Power Supply
This unit provides +5V power supply to the
microprocessor.
The microprocessor needs +5V power supply for its
operation.
