8259A PRIORITY INTERRUPT CONTROLLER
8086 has 2 interrupt inputs 1. NMI
2. INTRFor application where we have interrupts from multiple
sources, use an external device called a Priority Interrupt Controller(PIC) to “funnel” the interrupt signals into a single interrupt input on the processor.
8259A Overview and system connectionMultiply the interrupt type
it receives from the 8259A by 4 to produce an address in the interrupt vector table.
Push the flags on the stack.Clear IF and TF.Push the return address on
the stack.Get the starting address for
the interrupt procedure from the interrupt-vector table and load that address in CS and IP.
Execute the ISP.
Send out 2 interrupt ack pulse on its pin to the of an 8259A PIC. The pulses tell the 8259A to send the desired type to the 8086 on the data bus.
8259A PIC
Master and slaveMaster The 8259A connected directly into the 8086
INTR pin is called as masterSlave The INT pin from the other 8259A connects into
an IR input on the master. This secondary or cascaded device is called as a slave
Programming the 8259A The 8259A is programmed by properly
initializing:- 4 ICWs - Initialization command
words;- 3 OCWs – Operation command
words; The initialization procedure may not
needto initialize all of them.
Initializing an 8259A1. Find the system base address2. Find the internal address3. System address=internal address + base
address
