Abstract :
The data-processing capability of the 16-bit microprocessor is an order of magnitude above that of its 8-bit predecessor. In many cases, however, a 16-bit microprocessor offers practically no advantage over an 8-bit machine for I/O processing. Some comparisons are made between the 16-bit 8086 and the 8-bit 8085 microprocessors. The authors share also some of their experiences in teaching a laboratory using the 8086 microprocessor
