- 4. 4 Intel 8086 Internal Architecture
- 5. 5 Internal architecture of 8086 • 8086 has two blocks BIU and EU. • The BIU handles all transactions of data and addresses on the buses for EU. • The BIU performs all bus operations such as instruction fetching, reading and writing operands for memory and calculating the addresses of the memory operands. The instruction bytes are transferred to the instruction queue. • EU executes instructions from the instruction system byte queue.
- 6. 6 • BIU contains Instruction queue, Segment registers, Instruction pointer, Address adder. • EU contains Control circuitry, Instruction decoder, ALU, Pointer and Index register, Flag register.
- 7. 7 EXECUTION UNIT • Decodes instructions fetched by the BIU • Generate control signals, • Executes instructions. The main parts are: • Control Circuitry • Instruction decoder • ALU

If the result is more than 16-bits, the lower order 16-bits are stored in accumulator and higher order 16-bits are stored in DX register)
- 10. 10 Pointer And Index Registers • used to keep offset addresses. • Used in various forms of memory addressing. • In the case of SP and BP the default reference to form a physical address is the Stack Segment (SS- will be discussed under the BIU) • The index registers (SI & DI) and the BX generally default to the Data segment register (DS). SP: Stack pointer – Used with SS to access the stack segment BP: Base Pointer – Primarily used to access data on the stack – Can be used to access data in other segments
- 11. 11 • SI: Source Index register – is required for some string operations – When string operations are performed, the SI register points to memory locations in the data segment which is addressed by the DS register. Thus, SI is associated with the DS in string operations. • DI: Destination Index register – is also required for some string operations. – When string operations are performed, the DI register points to memory locations in the data segment which is addressed by the ES register. Thus, DI is associated with the ES in string operations. • The SI and the DI registers may also be used to access data stored in arrays
- 12. 12 EXECUTION UNIT – Flag Register • A flag is a flip flop which indicates some conditions produced by the execution of an instruction or controls certain operations of the EU . • In 8086 The EU contains a 16 bit flag register 9 of the 16 are active flags and remaining 7 are undefined. 6 flags indicates some conditions- status flags 3 flags –control Flags U U U U OF DF IF TF SF ZF U AF U PF U CF Carry Over flow Direction Interrupt Trap Sign Zero Auxiliary Parity U - Unused
- 13. 13 EXECUTION UNIT – Flag Register Flag Purpose Carry (CF) Holds the carry after addition or the borrow after subtraction. Also indicates some error conditions, as dictated by some programs and procedures . Parity (PF) PF=0;odd parity, PF=1;even parity. Auxiliary (AF) Holds the carry (half – carry) after addition or borrow after subtraction between bit positions 3 and 4 of the result (for example, in BCD addition or subtraction.) Zero (ZF) Shows the result of the arithmetic or logic operation. Z=1; result is zero. Z=0; The result is 0 Sign (SF) Holds the sign of the result after an arithmetic/logic instruction execution. S=1; negative, S=0
- 14. 14 Flag Purpose Trap (TF) A control flag. Enables the trapping through an on-chip debugging feature. Interrupt (IF) A control flag. Controls the operation of the INTR (interrupt request) I=0; INTR pin disabled. I=1; INTR pin enabled. Direction (DF) A control flag. It selects either the increment or decrement mode for DI and /or SI registers during the string instructions. Overflow (OF) Overflow occurs when signed numbers are added or subtracted. An overflow indicates the result has exceeded the capacity of the Machine
- 15. 15 Execution unit – Flag Register • Six of the flags are status indicators reflecting properties of the last arithmetic or logical instruction. • For example, if register AL = 7Fh and the instruction ADD AL,1 is executed then the following happen AL = 80h CF = 0; there is no carry out of bit 7 PF = 0; 80h has an odd number of ones AF = 1; there is a carry out of bit 3 into bit 4 ZF = 0; the result is not zero SF = 1; bit seven is one OF = 1; the sign bit has changed
- 16. 16 BUS INTERFACE UNIT (BIU) Contains • 6-byte Instruction Queue (Q) • The Segment Registers (CS, DS, ES, SS). • The Instruction Pointer (IP). • The Address Summing block (Σ)
- 17. 17 THE QUEUE (Q) • The BIU uses a mechanism known as an instruction stream queue to implement a pipeline architecture. • This queue permits pre-fetch of up to 6 bytes of instruction code. Whenever the queue of the BIU is not full, it has room for at least two more bytes and at the same time the EU is not requesting it to read or write operands from memory, the BIU is free to look ahead in the program by pre-fetching the next sequential instruction.
- 18. 18 Segmented Memory Code segment (64KB) Data segment (64KB) Extra segment (64KB) Stack segment (64KB) 1MB The memory in an 8086/88 based system is organized as segmented memory. The CPU 8086 is able to address 1Mbyte of memory. The Complete physically available memory may be divided into a number of logical segments. 00000 FFFFF Physical Memory
- 19. 19 • The size of each segment is 64 KB • A segment may be located any where in the memory • Each of these segments can be used for a specific function. – Code segment is used for storing the instructions. – The stack segment is used as a stack and it is used to store the return addresses. – The data and extra segments are used for storing data byte.
- 20. 20 • The 4 segments are Code, Data, Extra and Stack segments. • A Segment is a 64kbyte block of memory. • The 16 bit contents of the segment registers in the BIU actually point to the starting location of a particular segment. • Segments may be overlapped or non-overlapped
- 21. 21 Segment registers • In 8086/88 the processors have 4 segments registers • Code Segment register (CS), Data Segment register (DS), Extra Segment register (ES) and Stack Segment (SS) register. • All are 16 bit registers. • Each of the Segment registers store the upper 16 bit address of the starting address of the corresponding segments.
