An Introduction to 8086 Microprocessor

Slide 2 Slide 2 8086 Features: • 16-bit Arithmetic Logic Unit • 20-bit address bus - 220 = 1,048,576 = 1 meg The address refers to a byte in memory. In the 8088, these bytes come in on the 8-bit data bus. In the 8086, bytes at even addresses come in on the low half of the data bus (bits 0-7) and bytes at odd addresses come in on the upper half of the data bus (bits 8-15). The 8086 can read a 16-bit word at an even address in one operation and at an odd address in two operations. The 8088 needs two operations in either case. The least significant byte of a word on an 8086 family microprocessor is at the lower address. Slide 3 Simplified CPU Design:
