What is a parallel device?

There are several meanings of parallel device. It can mean having two or more computers working on the same problem at the same time. This is called parallel computing. Or it can mean any device hooked up to the parallel port on a computer. Parallel ports are fairly obsolete, so you are less likely to see this version of parallel device in the future.

Why the name 8085 is given?

The name 8085 was given to the next generation of the 8080 to indicate 1.) that it was a next generation device and 2.) that it only required a single +5V power supply to operate.


What is 8255 interfacing with 8085 microprocessor?

It means an 8 bit parallel I/O interface, as opposed to 8251 which is a serial I/O.

Serial


What is dma operation in 8085?

DMA->Direct Memory Access. I/O device can access the memory without the help of CPU. So that there is faster access by the device. I/O device signals microprocessor by HOLD signal.


Why is 8085 called so?

because 8085 is one of the landmark of 8-bit microprocessor history. it was more simple in construction than 8080. higher bit microprocessor can be understood very easily if one has prior knowledge of 8085.


Why the name 8085 Why the name 8085 for microprocessor?

8085 is a microprocessor designed by Intel


Basic DMA operation and 8237 DMA Controller?

In the 8085, DMA (Direct Memory Access) is controlled with HOLD and HLDA. The HOLD signal is a request to release the bus. The HLDA signal is the 8085's acknowledgement of that request. HLDA means that the 8085 will release the bus in one half clock cycle, i.e. at the end of T3. The 8085 will remain in that hold state until HOLD is released, at which point it will take control of the buses again. The HOLD'ing device has complete control and can access any memory or I/O. Often, the 8237 DMA controller is used to provide sequencing of the operation. The 8237 DMA controller interfaces between up to four peripheral devices and the 8085. It provides an address register for each device so that the device does not need to do so. The device only needs to indicate that a byte of data is available, or is required, and the 8237 will take care of storing or fetching the byte.


What device has the smallest current in parallel circuit?

In a parallel circuit, each branch has its own current flow, so there isn't a single device that has the smallest current. The current through each device is determined by its resistance and voltage applied. The device with the highest resistance will have the smallest current flowing through it in a parallel circuit.
