8255 - PPI

1
Introduction
• PPI – Programmable Peripheral Interface

• It is an I/O port chip used for interfacing I/O


devices with microprocessor

• Very commonly used peripheral chip

• Knowledge of 8255 essential for students in the


Microprocessors lab for Interfacing experiments
2
8255 Ports
• 8255 PPI has three 8-bit ports.
• Port A (PA)
• Port B (PB)
• Port C (PC)

• Port C composed of two independent 4-bit ports: PC7-4


(PC Upper) and PC3-0 (PC Lower)

• Port A, Port B, Port C and Control port will have the


addresses as 7CH, 7DH, 7EH, and 7FH respectively.

Pin Description
• PA7-PA0 : These are eight port A lines that acts as either latched
output or buffered input lines depending upon the
control word loaded into the control word register.

• PC7-PC4 : Upper nibble of port C lines. They may act as either


output latches or input buffers lines.
This port also can be used for generation of handshake lines in
mode 1 or mode 2.

• PC3-PC0 : These are the lower port C lines, other details are the
same as PC7-PC4 lines.

• PB0-PB7 : These are the eight port B lines which are used as
latched output lines or buffered input lines in the same
way as port A.
6
Pin Description
• RD : This is the input line driven by the microprocessor and
should be low to indicate read operation to 8255.

• WR : This is an input line driven by the microprocessor. A


low on this line indicates write operation.

• CS : This is a chip select line. If this line goes low, it enables


the 8255 to respond to RD and WR signals, otherwise
RD and WR signal are neglected.

• A1-A0 : These are the address input lines and are driven by the
microprocessor.

• RESET : The 8255 is placed into its reset state if this input line is
a logical 1. All peripheral ports are set to the input
mode.

8255 Operations
• The lines A1-A0 with RD, WR and CS form the following
operations for 8255.

Programming 8255
• 8255 has three operation modes: mode 0, mode 1, and
mode 2

Mode 0 - Simple Input or Output mode

Mode 1 - Input or Output with Handshake mode

Mode 2 - Bidirectional Data Transfer mode

9
Mode 0 - Simple Input or Output
• In this mode, ports A, B are used as two simple 8-bit I/O
ports & port C as two independent 4-bit ports.
• Each port can be programmed to function as simply an
input port or an output port.

• The input/output features in Mode 0 are as follows.


1. Outputs are latched.
2. Inputs are not latched.
3. Ports don’t have handshake or interrupt capability.

10
Mode 1 - Input or Output with Handshake
• In this mode, handshake signals are exchanged between
the MPU and peripherals prior to data transfer.

• The features of the mode include the following:


1. Two ports (A and B) function as 8-bit I/O ports.
They can be configured as either as input or output ports.

2. Each port uses three lines from port C as handshake signals.


The remaining two lines of Port C can be used for simple I/O operations.
3. Input and Output data are latched.
4. Interrupt logic is supported.

11
Mode 1 - Input or Output with Handshake
Mode 1 - Input or Output with Handshake

13
Mode 2 - Bidirectional Data Transfer
• This mode is used primarily in applications such as data
transfer between two computers.

• In this mode, Port A can be configured as the


bidirectional port, Port B either in Mode 0 or Mode 1.

• Port A uses five signals from Port C as handshake signals


for data transfer.

• The remaining three signals from Port C can be used


either as simple I/O or as handshake for port B.

14
Mode 2 - Bidirectional Data Transfer
8255 Modes Summary
• Port A can work in Mode 0, Mode 1, or Mode 2
• Port B can work in Mode 0, or Mode 1
• Port C can work in Mode 0 only, if at all

• Port A, Port B and Port C can work in Mode 0


• Port A and Port B can work in Mode 1
• Only Port A can work in Mode 2
17
8255 Control Words
• There are 2 control words in 8255.
1. Mode Definition (MD) Control word and
2. Bit Set / Reset (BSR) Control Word

• MD control word configures the ports of 8255 as


input or output in Mode 0, 1, or 2.

• PCBSR control word is used to set to 1 or reset to


0 any one selected bit of Port C
8255 Control words
