AI Thread Summary
In microprocessors, transferring a word between registers or between a register and a bus requires an edge-triggered pulse, which can be generated by either a control signal or a clock. In the 8085 microprocessor, the trigger for peripherals can come from the clock during T-states or from control signals like MEMR during memory read cycles. The discussion highlights that while control signals can initiate data latching, they are still governed by clock phases to prevent delays. Relying solely on condition detection for triggers can introduce latency, whereas clock-based triggers help maintain timing integrity. Understanding the interplay between control signals and clock phases is crucial for effective microprocessor design.

In microprocessors for a word to transfer between different registers(or between a register and a bus) an edge triggered pulse is required. Now in mp this can be done using control signal or a clock.In 8085 mp for what peripherals is that trigger provided by clock and what peripherals is that trigger provided by control signal. For example in a text which i follow it is stated that the data is latched from memory on to the data bus during memory read machine cycle's control signal(MEMR) transition. In another instant it is stated that clock provides that trigger during the T-states. Which is correct?

Even that method is controlled by phases of the clock. If you design logic by detecting conditions, then generating a trigger, you accumulate delays. Using clocks avoids accumulating delays, but you must be conservative and allow for the worst case.
 
Thread 'How can I find the cleanout for my building drain?'
I am a long distance truck driver, but I recently completed a plumbing program with Stratford Career Institute. In the chapter of my textbook Repairing DWV Systems, the author says that if there is a clog in the building drain, one can clear out the clog by using a snake augur or maybe some other type of tool into the cleanout for the building drain. The author said that the cleanout for the building drain is usually near the stack. I live in a duplex townhouse. Just out of curiosity, I...
Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...
