Microprocessor April 2021

This document contains questions for a microprocessors exam. It has three sections with multiple choice and written response questions. Section A contains 10 multiple choice questions worth 3 marks each on topics like the accumulator, control signals, memory types, op-codes, distinguishing data from addresses, machine cycles, peripheral mapped I/O, stack instructions, and machine control instructions in 8085 microprocessors. It also includes a question calculating execution time for sample instructions. Section B has 5 written response questions worth 6 marks each, topics include bus organization, registers, rotate instructions, writing an algorithm, and examples of instructions. Section C requires answering two of four 10-mark questions, covering register organization, addressing modes, interrupts, and 8086 architecture.
