Ans.
The address is an identification number used by the microprocessor to identify or
access a memory location or I / O device. It is an output signal from the processor. Hence
the address bus is unidirectional.
Q11. What is the function of microprocessor in a system?
Ans.
The microprocessor is the master in the system, which controls all the activity of the
system. It issues address and control signals and fetches the instruction and data from
memory. Then it executes the instruction to take appropriate action.
Q12. Define machine cycle.
Ans.
Machine cycle is defined as the time required to complete one operation of
accessing memory, I/O, or acknowledging an external request. This cycle may consist of
three to six T-states.
Q13. Define T-State.
Ans.
T-State is defined as one subdivision of the operation performed in one clock
period. These subdivisions are internal states synchronized with the system clock, and
each T-State is precisely equal to one clock period.
Q14. List the components of microprocessor (single board microcomputer) based
system.
Ans.
The microprocessor based system consists of microprocessor as CPU,
semiconductor memories like EPROM and RAM, input device, output device and
interfacing devices.
Q15. Why interfacing is needed for I/O devices?
Ans.
Generally I/O devices are slow devices. Therefore the speed of I/O devices does not
match with the speed of microprocessor. And so an interface is provided between system
bus and I/O devices.
Q16. What does memory-mapping mean?
Ans.
The memory mapping is the process of interfacing memories and peripheral to
microprocessor and allocating addresses to each device.
Q17. What is interrupt I/O?
Ans.
If the I/O device initiates the data transfer through interrupt then the I/O is called
interrupt driven I/O.
Q18. What is the need for system clock?
Ans.
The system clock is necessary for synchronizing various internal operations or
devices in the microprocessor and to synchronize the microprocessor with other
peripherals in the system.
Q19. What is the need for port?
