Micro-Processor

Question 1
The output of a tristate buffer when the enable input in 0 is
A
Always 0
B
Always 1
C
Retains the last value when enable input was high
D
Disconnected state
Question 2
In 8085 microprocessor, the ISR for handling trap interrupt is at which location?
A
3CH
B
34H
C
74H
D
24H
Question 2 Explanation: 
→A small program or a routine that when executed services the corresponding interrupting source is called as an Interrupt Service Routine(ISR).
→TRAP is a non-maskable interrupt, having the highest priority among all interrupts.
→By default, it is enabled until it gets acknowledged.
→In case of failure, it executes as ISR and sends the data to backup memory.
→This interrupt transfers the control to the location 0024H.
Question 3
In 8086, the jump condition for the instruction JNBE is?
A
CF = 0 or ZF = 0
B
ZF = 0 and SF = 1
C
CF = 0 and ZF = 0
D
CF = 0
Question 3 Explanation: 
→JA/JNBE :Jump if above/ Jump if not below or equal
→Description: Jumps to the destination label mentioned in the instruction if the result of previous instruction (generally compare) causes both CF and ZF to have value equal to 0, else no action is taken.
Question 4
What is the meaning of (RD)' signal in Intel 8151A?
A
Read (when it is low)
B
Read (when it is high)
C
Write (when it is low)
D
Read and Write (when it is high)
Question 4 Explanation: 
RD-Read: Read signal, when low, indicates the peripherals that the processor is performing a memory or I/O read operation. RD is active low and shows the state for T2, T3, TW of any read cycle. The signal remains tristated during the 'hold acknowledge'.
Question 5
Microprocessors are used in which generation of computers?
A
Ist generation
B
IInd generation
C
IIIrd generation
D
IV generation
Question 5 Explanation: 
In the history of computing hardware, computers using
1. Vacuum tubes were called the first generation;
2. Transistors and diodes, the second;
3. Integrated circuits, the third;
4. Microprocessors, the fourth.
5. Whereas previous computer generations had focused on increasing the number of logic elements in a single CPU, the fifth generation, it was widely believed at the time, would instead turn to massive numbers of CPUs for added performance.
