CPU I/O port Timer USART Interrupt A/D, D/A Applications of Microprocessors • Microcontrollers • A microcontroller is a simple computer implemented in a single VLSI chip. • In general, microcontrollers are cheap and have low performance • Microcontrollers are widely used in industrial control, automobile and home applications Block diagram of a microcontroller

  12. What is a microprocessor? • Criteria • number of chips • data path • address space • CPU performance • Price • Types of micrprocessor • Application • Reprogrammable microprocessors • embedded microprocessors and microcontrollers • Instruction complexity • CISC • RISC

  13. The 8086 Family The 8086 Microprocessor (1978): −20-bit address bus. −16-bit internal data bus. −16-bit external data bus. −Separate bus interface unit (BIU) and execution unit (EU). −16-bit registers (with the ability to access the high or low 8 bits separately). −Built in hardware multiply and divide instructions. −Support for an external floating-point math coprocessor.

  14. The 8086 Family The 8088 Microprocessor (1979): −20-bit address bus. −16-bit internal data bus. −8-bit external data bus. −Separate bus interface unit (BIU) and execution unit (EU). −16-bit registers (with the ability to access the high or low 8 bits separately). −Built in hardware multiply and divide instructions. −Support for an external floating-point math coprocessor.

  15. The 8086 Family The 80186 & 80188 Microprocessors (1982): −A personal computer (PC) based on the 8086/8088 microprocessors requires several additional chips such as: a clock generator, a programmable timer, a programmable interrupt controller, a direct memory access controller and a circuitry to select the I/O devices. −To simplify the design, Intel introduced the 80186 & 80188 microprocessors. −The 80186/80188 integrates on a single chip an 8086/8088 microprocessor and all the chips mentioned above. −The 80186 & 80188 are often referred to as highintegration processors

  16. The 8086 Family The 80286 Microprocessor (1982): −24-bit address bus. −16-bit internal data bus. −16-bit external data bus. −Designed to be software compatible with 8086 & 80186 microprocessors. −Provides two programming modes: Real Mode Protected Mode

  17. The 8086 Family The 80286 Microprocessor (Real Mode): −The processor function exactly like the 8086 processor. −That is, any 8086 program can be run on a Real Mode 80286 processor without any change. −The 80286 processor uses only its 20 least significant address lines. −So, the memory space is limited to 1 MB

  18. The 8086 Family The 80286 Microprocessor (Protected Mode): −In this mode, the processor supports a multiprogram environment. −It gives each program a predetermined amount of memory. −This uses the full memory space which is 16MB. −This mode is called Protected Mode because several programs can be loaded into memory at once (each in its own segment), but are protected from each other

  19. The 8086 Family The 80386 Microprocessor (1984): −32-bit address bus. −32-bit internal data bus. −32-bit external data bus. −32-bit registers. −Provides three modes: • Real Mode (identical to that of 80286) • Protected Mode (manages 4 GB of memory in a way similar to that of the 80286). • Virtual Mode (similar to Real Mode, except that multiple 8086 processors can run simultaneously

  20. The 8086 Family The 80486 Microprocessor (1989): −32-bit address bus. −32-bit internal and external data bus. −32-bit registers. −On-chip cache (stores the most recently used instructions and data ) −Integrated Floating-Point Unit (FPU) −Real & Protected Modes as in 80386 −Pipelined design

  21. The 8086 Family The Pentium Microprocessor (1993): −32-bit address bus. −32-bit internal −64-bit external data bus. −32-bit registers. −Two instructions pipelines −On-chip cache −Integrated FPU
