Question 1 |
An 8 Kbyte ROM with an active low Chip Select input (\overline{CS}) is to be used in an 8085 microprocessor based system. The ROM should occupy the address range 1000H to 2FFFH. The address lines are designated as A_{15} \; to \; A_{0}, \; where \; A_{15} is the most significant address bit.
Which one of the following logic expressions will generate the correct \overline{CS} signal for this ROM?
A_{15} + A_{14} + (A_{13}\cdot A_{12}+ \bar{A_{13}}\cdot \bar{A_{12}}) | |
A_{15} \cdot A_{14} \cdot (A_{13}+ A_{12}) | |
\bar{A_{15}} \cdot \bar{A_{14}} \cdot (A_{13}\cdot \bar{A_{12}}+ \bar{A_{13}}\cdot A_{12}) | |
\bar{A_{15}} + \bar{ A_{14}} +A_{13}\cdot A_{12} |
Question 1 Explanation:
\begin{aligned} & \text {8kB ROM is given }\\ &\therefore 2^{n}=8 k B=2^{3}\left(2^{10}\right)=2^{13} \end{aligned}
\therefore 13 Address lines are required for memory chip.
But the address range given as 1000H-2FFF H
In order to get \overline{C S} as low, the condition is
A_{15}=A_{14}=0 and A_{13}=0 / 1, A_{12}=1 / 0
The circuit to generate an active low chip select signal can be given as shown below:
The logical expression can be written as,
\begin{aligned} F &=A_{15}+A_{14}+\left(A_{13} \odot A_{12}\right) \\ &=A_{15}+A_{14}+\left(A_{13} \cdot A_{12}+\bar{A}_{13} \cdot \bar{A}_{12}\right) \end{aligned}
\therefore 13 Address lines are required for memory chip.

6 | |
7 | |
8 | |
9 |
Question 2 Explanation:
Memory size =16 \mathrm{kB}=214 \mathrm{bits }
Number of address lines = Number of data lines
\begin{aligned} 2^{n} \cdot 2^{n} &=2^{14} \\ \quad n &=7 \end{aligned}
Number of address lines = Number of data lines
\begin{aligned} 2^{n} \cdot 2^{n} &=2^{14} \\ \quad n &=7 \end{aligned}
Question 3 |
For the 8085 microprocessor, the interfacing circuit to input 8-bit digital data
(DI_{0}-DI_{7})h from an external device is shown in the figure. The instruction for
correct data transfer is
MVI A, F8H | |
IN F8H | |
OUT F8H | |
LDA F8F8H |
Question 3 Explanation:
To transfer, the data should be present in accumulator and proper instruction should be executed.
For the proper working, AND gates 1 and 2, should produce output as 1.
Since \bar{DS}_{1}, is connected to output 0 of decoder
so input selection should be 000, therefore address lines have inputs as i.e. accumulator should be fed with the contents of address F8F8 H i.e. LOA F8F8 H.
\begin{aligned} A_{15} & A_{14}& A_{13}& A_{12}& A_{11}& A_{10}& A_{9}& A_{8} &A_{7} & A_{6}& A_{5}& A_{4} & A_{3} & A_{2}& A_{1}& A_{0} \\ 1&1&1&1&1&0&0&0&1&1&1&1&1&0&0&0 \end{aligned}
If IO/\bar{M} =0; to activate \bar{G}_{2A}I/O is treated as M/M mapped I/O hence I/O has 16-bit address.

Question 4 |
There are four chips each of 1024 bytes connected to a 16 bit address bus as shown in the figure below. RAMs 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively are mapped to addresses
0C00H-0FFFH, 1C00H-1FFFH, 2C00H-2FFFH, 3C00H-3FFFH | |
1800H-1FFFH, 2800H-2FFFH, 3800H-3FFFH, 4800H-4FFFH | |
0500H-08FFH, 1500H-18FFH, 3500H-38FFH, 5500H-58FFH | |
0800H-0BFFH, 1800H-1BFFH, 2800H-2BFFH, 3800H-3BFFH |
Question 4 Explanation:
Since the range of RAM # 1 is different in all the four options. So we will check for RAM 1 only and then the same procedure can be followed for RAM 2, 3 and 4.
So, RAM # 1 will be selected when
\begin{array}{l} S_{0}=0 \\ S_{1}=0 \\ S_{0}=A_{12}=0 \\ S_{1}=A_{13}=0 \end{array}
Now the RAM # 1 will be enable when the input of MUX is 1, or the output of AND gate is 1.
\begin{aligned} \mathrm{SO}, & A_{10}=0 \\ A_{11} &=1 \\ A_{14} &=0 \\ A_{15} &=0 \end{aligned}
\begin{array}{cccc|cccc|cccc|cccc|c} A_{15} & A_{14} & A_{13} & A_{12} & A_{11} & A_{10} & A_{9} & A_{8} & A_{7} & A_{6} & A_{5} & A_{4} & A_{3} & A_{2} & A_{1} & A_{0} & \\ \hline 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & \text { Start } \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & \text { End } \\ \hline 0 & & &&& 8 & & & 0 & & & &0 & &&&\text { Start } \\ 0& &&& & B& & & F& & & & F & & &&\text { End } \\ \hline \end{array}
So, range of RAM # 1 is 0800H to 0BFFH
So, RAM # 1 will be selected when
\begin{array}{l} S_{0}=0 \\ S_{1}=0 \\ S_{0}=A_{12}=0 \\ S_{1}=A_{13}=0 \end{array}
Now the RAM # 1 will be enable when the input of MUX is 1, or the output of AND gate is 1.
\begin{aligned} \mathrm{SO}, & A_{10}=0 \\ A_{11} &=1 \\ A_{14} &=0 \\ A_{15} &=0 \end{aligned}
\begin{array}{cccc|cccc|cccc|cccc|c} A_{15} & A_{14} & A_{13} & A_{12} & A_{11} & A_{10} & A_{9} & A_{8} & A_{7} & A_{6} & A_{5} & A_{4} & A_{3} & A_{2} & A_{1} & A_{0} & \\ \hline 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & \text { Start } \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & \text { End } \\ \hline 0 & & &&& 8 & & & 0 & & & &0 & &&&\text { Start } \\ 0& &&& & B& & & F& & & & F & & &&\text { End } \\ \hline \end{array}
So, range of RAM # 1 is 0800H to 0BFFH
