Introduction

▪ The microprocessor can do many things (with the help of some great
programming), but it is still an opaque black box.

▪ If you want it to share information, or show you what it is trying to

▪ An output device is a thing that provides you a way to show

7 Segment Project_1

▪ Design the hardware interface and write a 8086 assembly program

for a common cathode 7-segment LED-based counter that connected

to PORT A of the 8255A PPI.

▪ The counter counts from 0 to 9 continually with a one-second delay

intervals between each two counts.

7 Segment Project_2
▪ Design the hardware interface and write an 8086 assembly program
for a common cathode 7-segment LED-based counter that connected
to PORT A of the 8255A PPI.
▪ The counter counts up from 0 to 9 (and repeat) if a switch connected
to BIT0 of port B is pressed, and it counts down from 9 to 0 (and
repeat) if the switch is released.
▪ Use one second delay intervals between each two outputs.

Assignment_1
▪ Design the hardware interface and write an 8086 assembly program
for a common anode 7-segment display that connected to PORT B.
▪ The program displays the letters A , E , F , H , L , and P (and repeat) if
a switch connected to BIT0 of PORT A is pressed.
▪ If the switch is released, the program displays dash “ – ” on the 7
segment.
▪ Use two seconds delay intervals between each two characters.

35
Assignment_2
▪ Design the hardware interface and write an 8086 assembly language
program to drive an 8×8 LED Matrix Display that connected to PORT
A and PORT B of the 8255A PPI.
▪ It is required to display the first three characters of your
Grandfather’s name on the LED Matrix Display (the letters are
required to appear consecutively on the LED Matrix).
▪ Use one second delay intervals between each two characters.
