Features: It Is A Programmable Device. It Has 24 I/O Programmable Pins Like PA, PB, PC (3-8 Pins) - T T L Compatible. Improved DC Driving Capability

The 8255 Programmable Peripheral Interface is a programmable device with 24 I/O pins that can be configured for input or output. It has 3 ports (PA, PB, PC) that can be individually programmed in modes 0, 1, or 2 to enable simple I/O, handshaking I/O, or bidirectional I/O. The device interfaces with the 8085 microprocessor via an 8-bit data bus and control signals. It is programmed by writing control words that specify the I/O mode and configuration of each port.

PROGRAMMABLE

PERIPHERAL INTERFACE
-8255
Features:
It is a programmable device.

It has 24 I/O programmable pins like PA,PB,PC (3-8


pins).

T T L compatible.
Improved dc driving capability

Pin Diagram

Function of pins:
Data bus(D0-D7):These are 8-bit bi-

directional buses, connected to 8085 data


bus for transferring data.

CS: This is Active Low signal. When it is low,


then data is transfer from 8085.

Read: This is Active Low signal, when it is


Low read operation will be start.

Write: This is Active Low signal, when it is


Low Write operation will be start.

Address (A0-A1):This is used to select


the ports. like this

A0

reg.

RESET: This is used to reset the device. That


means clear control registers.

PA0-PA7:It is the 8-bit bi-directional I/O pins


used to send the data to peripheral or
or to receive the data from peripheral.

PB0-PB7:Similar to PA
PC0-PC7:This is also 8-bit bidirectional I/O

pins. These lines are divided into two groups.


1. PC0 to PC3(Lower Groups)
2. PC4 to PC7 (Higher groups)
These two groups working in separately using
4 datas.

Block Diagram

Data Bus buffer:


It is a 8-bit bidirectional Data bus.
Used to interface between 8255 data
bus with system bus.

The internal data bus and Outer pins

D0-D7 pins are connected in internally.

The direction of data buffer is

decided by Read/Control Logic.

Read/Write Control Logic:


This is getting the input signals

from control bus and Address bus

Control signal are RD and WR.


Address signals are A0,A1,and CS.
8255 operation is enabled or
disabled by CS.

Group A and Group B control:


Group A and B get the Control
Signal from CPU and send the command to the
individual control blocks.
Group A send the control signal to port A and
Port C (Upper) PC7-PC4.
Group B send the control signal to port B and
Port C (Lower) PC3-PC0.

PORT A:
This is a 8-bit buffered I/O latch.
It can be programmed by mode 0 , mode 1,
mode 2 .

PORT B:
This is a 8-bit buffer I/O latch.
It can be programmed by mode 0 and
mode 1.

PORT C:
This is a 8-bit Unlatched buffer Input

and an Output latch.


It is splitted into two parts.
It can be programmed by bit set/reset
operation.

Operation modes:
BIT SET/RESET MODE:
The PORT C can be Set or Reset by sending OUT
instruction to the CONTROL registers.

I/O MODES:
MODE 0(Simple input / Output):
In this mode , port A, port B and port C is used as
individually (Simply).

Features:
Outputs are latched , Inputs are buffered not
latched.
Ports do not have Handshake or interrupt
capability.

MODE 1 :(Input/output with Hand shake)


In this mode, input or output is
transferred by hand shaking Signals.

Printer

Busy

Handshaking signals is used to transfer

data between whose data transfer is not


same.

Example:
The computer send the data to the printer

large speed compared to the printer.


When computer send the data according to
the printer speed at the time only, printer
can accept.
If printer is not ready to accept the data
then after sending the data bus , computer
uses another handshaking signal to tell
printer that valid data is available on the
data bus.
Each port uses three lines from port C as
handshake signals

MODE 2:bi-directional I/O data transfer:


This mode allows bidirectional data
transfer over a single 8-bit data bus
using handshake signals.
This feature is possible only Group A
Port A is working as 8-biy bidirectional.
PC3-PC7 is used for handshaking purpose.
The data is sent by CPU through this
port , when the peripheral request it.
CONTROL WORD FORMATS:
In the INPUT mode , When RESET is High
all 24 pins (3-ports) be a input mode.

i.e all flip flops are cleared and the

interrupts are rest.


This condition is maintained even after
RESET goes low.
This can be avoid by writing single
control word to the control registers ,
when required.

FOR BIT SET/RESET MODE:


This is bit set/reset control word format.

BIT SET/RESET FLAG

PC0-PC7 is set or reset as per the status

of D0.
A BSR word is written for each bit
Example:
PC3 is Set then control register will be
0XXX0111.
PC4 is Reset then control register will be
0XXX01000.
X is a dont care.

Bit D7 is used for specifying whether
word loaded in to Bit set/reset mode
or Mode definition word.
D7=1=Mode definition mode.
D7=0=Bit set/Reset mode.
