Abstract :
An Intel 8085 microprocessor-based algorithm is presented to provide programmable switching for p-i-n diodes that can be interfaced with an 8225 programmable peripheral interface chip. This can be useful in the realization of phased array in which p-i-n diode switching modules are to be switched ON/OFF according to a certain desired pattern in the time domain
