Definition: 8086 is a 16-bit microprocessor and was designed in 1978 by Intel. Unlike, 8085, an 8086 microprocessor has 20-bit address bus. Thus, is able to access 220 i.e., 1 MB address in the memory. As we know that a microprocessor performs arithmetic and logic operations. And an 8086 microprocessor is able to perform these …
Definition: 8085 is an 8-bit microprocessor as it operates on 8 bits. The size of the address bus in 8085 is 16 bits. Thus, can address 64 KB memory. An 8085 microprocessor is an IC with 40 pins and operates with +5V power supply. The pin configuration plays a very important role in understanding the architecture …

Definition: 8085 is an 8-bit microprocessor as it operates on 8 bits at a time and is created with N-MOS technology. This microprocessor exhibits some unique characteristics and this is the reason it still holds popularity among the microprocessors. Basically, 8085 was the first commercially successful microprocessor by Intel. As some of the architectural drawbacks …
Definition: A microprocessor is an IC that executes arithmetic and logical functions that are defined by a program inside the system. Also, a computer system that is employed with a microprocessor is termed as a microcomputer. It is basically an LSI i.e., large scale integration chip. Each and everything in a processor is stored in …
Definition: Magneto resistors are those components that exhibit the property of magnetoresistance. Basically, magnetoresistance is the phenomenon of change in resistance of a material when a magnetic field is applied. The current that flows through a magneto resistor, varies with the variation in the applied magnetic field. The resistivity of magnetoresistor depends on the mobility …
Both resistor and capacitor are passive components that are employed in electrical and electronic circuits. However, the crucial difference between the resistor and the capacitor is that a resistor is an element that dissipates electric charge or energy. As against, a capacitor is an element that stores electric charge or energy. Basically, a resistor is …
Both transistor and thyristor are the types of semiconductor devices. But some factors exist that differentiates the two. The crucial difference between transistor and thyristor is that a transistor is a 3-layer device that requires regular current pulse in order to ensure conduction. On the contrary, a thyristor is a 4-layer device that needs an …
Definition: A Gunn diode is a semiconductor device formed by only N-type material. It is also termed as a transferred electron device. As in n-type material, electrons acts as majority carriers and these are transferred from one valley to another. It is a two terminal device basically made up of semiconductor material like GaAs, InP …
Definition: A signal generator is an equipment that is used to produce signals of varying amplitude and frequency. It is usually a source for generating sinusoidal signals. However, it can also produce a signal in the form of a square wave, triangular wave or sawtooth wave etc. The adjustable frequency range of the generated signal …
