What we have learnt

  • The 8255 PPI enables parallel I/O operations between the microprocessor and peripheral devices, facilitating efficient data transfer.
  • The control word format for configuring the 8255 is critical to define the operating mode for ports A, B, and C.
  • I/O Mode and Bit Set/Reset Mode are two primary operating modes of the 8255, each serving distinct functions in handling input and output.

Key Concepts

-- 8275 Programmable Peripheral Interface (PPI)
A dedicated integrated circuit that allows communication between the CPU and other peripherals utilizing parallel data lines.
-- Control Word
An 8-bit command that configures the modes and directions of the PPI ports.
-- I/O Modes
Operational settings of the 8255 PPI that dictate how its ports can function as input or output.
-- Bit Set/Reset Mode
A specific operating mode that allows the individual setting or resetting of bits in Port C without affecting other bits.
