Instruction Word Size: 8085 Microprocessor

The total memory location required to feed the instruction in memory is called as instruction word size. The memory location of 8085 microprocessor can accommodate 8-bits of data. To store 16-bits data, they are stored in two consecutive memory locations (i.e. 2 Bytes). According to the instruction word size in 8085 microprocessor, there are three types of … Read more

Addressing Modes in Instructions: 8085 Microprocessor

In this article, we will discuss addressing modes of 8085 microprocessor. To perform any operation, we have to give the corresponding instructions to the microprocessor. In each instruction, a programmer has to specify three things: 1. Operation to be performed. 2. Address of source of data. 3. Address of destination of the result. The method … Read more

Wheatstone Bridge – Working Principle & Applications

A Wheatstone bridge is used for the accurate measurement of resistance. The Wheatstone bridge works on the principle of null deflection, i.e. the ratio of their resistances are equal, and no current flows through the galvanometer. The general arrangement of the Wheatstone bridge circuit is shown in fig. 1. It is a four arms bridge circuit … Read more

8 Bit Logical Rotational Instructions | 8085 Microprocessor

These instructions execute on the basis of the content of accumulator. When these instructions execute, the content of accumulator will shift by 1 bit either left or right as per the instruction. 1. RLC  no operand Instruction word size  ⇒   1 Byte Operation ⇒ When this instruction will execute the content of accumulator will shift (or rotate) … Read more
