In 8085 Instruction set, SIM stands for “SetInterrupt Mask”. It is 1-Byte instruction and it is a multi-purpose instruction. The main uses of SIM instruction are –Masking/unmasking of RST7.5, RST6.5, and RST5.5Reset to 0 RST7.5 flip-flopPerform serial output of dataMnemonics, OperandOpcode(in HEX)BytesSIM301When SIM instruction is executed then the content of theAccumulator decides the action to be taken. So before executing the SIM instruction, it is mandatory to initialize Accumulator with the required value. The meaning and purpose of the various bits of the accumulator when SIM is executed has been depicted below – Note that except bit 5, which is a ...

Actually, we don't have much written historical records of how the writing system has started from right to left or left to right. We believe they were started to avoid smudging from the other side. And mostly they are for the convenience of writing.Here are some languages which are written from left to right.Arabic.Aramaic.Azeri.Dhivehi / Maldivian.Hebrew.Kurdish (Sorani)Persian/Farsi.Urdu.

UNIX copyrighted Operating system which is used by IBM AIX, Sun Solaris and HP-UX etc., Most of the UNIX systems are commercial in nature.Linux is considered as UNIX clone. But the traditional companies won't accept "Unix-like" but want the Unix trademark. Linux Is Just a Kernel and not the complete Operating system.When it comes to administration, Linux is considered as most user-friendly operating systems. Unix and Linux use a different set of tools for back up of data. However, they both share some common tools such as tar, dump/restore, and cpio etc.

An electronic circuit is a group of electronic components connected for a specific purpose.A simple electronic circuit can be designed easily because it requires few discrete electronic components and connections. However, designing a complex electronic circuit is difficult, as it requires a number of discrete electronic components and their connections. It is also time taking to build such complex circuits and their reliability is also less. These difficulties can be overcome with Integrated Circuits.To define Integrated Circuit (IC) we can consider that If multiple electronic components are interconnected on a single chip of semiconductor material, then that chip is called ...

In the 4-bit microprocessor or computer architecture will have a data path width or a highest operand width of 4 bits or a nibble. And also these architectures or microprocessors typically will have a matching register file with registers width of 4 bits and 4-8-bit wide addresses.Most of the first microprocessors during the early 1970s had 4-bit word sizes. Both the Intel 4004, the first commercial microprocessor, and the 4040 had a 4-bit word length, but had 8-bit instructions. Some of the first microcontrollers such as the TMS1000 made by Texas Instruments and NEC's μPD751 also had 4-bit words. 4-bit ...

In computer architecture, 8-bit integers, memory addresses, or other data units are those that are 8 bits (1 octet or 1 Byte) wide. Also, 8-bit CPU and ALU architectures are those that are based on registers, address buses, or data buses of that size. 8-bit is also a generation of microcomputers in which 8-bit microprocessors were the norm. Mainly we can consider 8-bit microprocessor means 8-bit data or information bus.for controlling a CRT display, Federico Faggin and his team at Intel designed a chip produced by Computer Terminals Corporation. Later this chip was called as Datapoint. This chip did not ...
