Accumulator (A): An 8-bit register that is part of every ALU operation.
The 8085 remains the perfect "sandbox" for students to understand how a CPU thinks before moving on to complex 64-bit architectures.
The architecture is divided into several functional units that work in sync to execute instructions. The Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)
The 8085 interfaces with EPROM (for program storage) and RAM (for temporary data). Decoders like the 74LS138 are often used to map specific addresses to these chips. I/O Interfacing Peripheral-Mapped I/O: Uses IN and OUT instructions. Memory-Mapped I/O: Treats I/O devices as memory locations. Why Gaonkar's Approach?
ALE (Address Latch Enable): Used to demultiplex the AD0–AD7 bus.
If you'd like, I can help you refine this for a specific use case:
IO/M: Distinguishes between I/O operations and Memory operations. Interrupts
