Isolated I/OIn the isolated I/O configurations, the CPU has definite input and output instructions, and each of these instructions is related to the address of an interface register. When the CPU fetches and decodes the operation code of an input or output instruction, it locates the address related to the instruction into the common address lines.Simultaneously, it enables the I/O read (for input) or I/O write (for output) control line. This instructs the external elements that are connected to the common bus that the address in the address lines is for an interface register and not for a memory word.In ... Read More
There are two commonly used for organizations for multibyte data such as big-endian and little-endian. In the big-endian format, the most important byte of a value is saved in location X, the following byte in location X + 1, and so on. For example, the hexadecimal value 0102 0304H (H for hexadecimal) would be stored, starting in location 100H, as shown in table (a).Data organization in (a) big endian and (b) little endian formatsMemory AddressData (in hex)10101102021030310404(a)Memory AddressData (in hex)10104102031030210401(b)In little endian, the order is reversed. The smallest significant byte is saved in location X, the next byte in location ... Read More
There is the following technique for joining memory chips to form a memory subsystem. Two or more chips can be combined to generate a memory with more bits per location. This is done by linking the corresponding address and control signals of the chips and linking their data pins to various bits of the data bus.For example, two 8 x 2 chips can be combined to generate an 8 x 4 memory as displayed in the figure. Both chips get the equal three address inputs from the bus, and the same chip enables and output enables signals.The data chips of ... Read More
The internal organization is linear. This chip has three address inputs and two data outputs, and 16 bits of internal storage constructed as eight 2-bit locations. The three address bits are decoded to choose one of the eight locations, but only if the chip enable is active. If CE = 0, the decoder is disabled and no location is selected.The tri-state buffers for that location’s cells are enabled, authorizing data to move to the output buffers. If both CE and OE are set to 1, these buffers are enabled and the data is output from the chip, therefore, the outputs ... Read More
The instruction cycle is the process a microprocessor goes through to process an instruction. First, the microprocessor fetches or reads, the instruction from the memory. Therefore it decodes the instruction, determining which instruction it has fetched. Finally, it implements the operations required to execute the instruction. Each of these functions including fetch, decode and execute contains a sequence of one or more operations.First, the microprocessor locates the address of the instruction on the address bus. The memory subsystem inputs this address and decodes it to access the desired memory locations. After the microprocessor enables ample time for memory to decode ... Read More
A bus is a set of wires. The elements of the computer are linked to the buses. It can transfer data from one element to another, the source element outputs data onto the bus. The destination element then inputs this information from the bus. As the complexity of a computer system improves, it becomes more effective (in methods of minimizing connections) at using buses instead of a direct connection between each pair of devices.Buses use less area on a circuit board and need less power than a huge number of direct connections. It can also need fewer pins on the ... Read More
When two inductors are joined end to end i.e. finishing end of one joined to the starting end of the other and same current flows through both the inductors, then the inductors are said to be connected in series.Inductors in Series with No Mutual InductanceConsider two inductors of inductance $L_{1}$ and $L_{2}$ connected in series (see the figure). Assume that the mutual inductance between the two coils is zero. Let $L_{T}$ being the total equivalent inductance of the series connected inductors.Suppose at any instant the current is changing at the rate of di/dt. The total induced emf in the circuit ...

Induced EMFWhen a magnetic flux linking a conductor or coil changes, an electromotive force (EMF) is induced in the conductor or coil, is known as induced EMF. Depending upon the way of bringing the change in magnetic flux, the induced EMF is of two types −Statically Induced EMFDynamically Induced EMFStatically Induced EMFWhen the conductor is stationary and the magnetic field is changing, the induced EMF in such a way is known as statically induced EMF (as in a transformer). It is so called because the EMF is induced in a conductor which is stationary. The statically induced EMF can also ... Read More
Faraday’s Laws of Electromagnetic InductionMichael Faraday (an English scientist) performed a series of experiments to demonstrate the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction and he summed up his conclusions into two laws, known as Faraday's laws of electromagnetic induction.First Law of Electromagnetic InductionThe first law states that "when a magnetic flux linking a conductor or coil changes, an EMF is induced in the conductor or coil". Therefore, the first law tells about the condition under which the emf is induced in a conductor or coil.Second Law of Electromagnetic InductionThe second law states that "The magnitude of the induced emf in the conductor ...

Hysteresis LossWhen a magnetic material is subjected to cycle of magnetisation (i.e. it is magnetised first in one direction and then in the other), a power loss occurs due to molecular friction in the material i.e. the magnetic domains of the material resist being turned first in one direction and then in the other. Therefore, energy is required in the material to overcome this opposition. This loss being in the form of heat and is termed as hysteresis loss. The effect of hysteresis loss is the rise of temperature of the machine.The formula for the calculation of hysteresis loss is ... Read More
