the 8255 belongs to a group of peripheral support chips developed by Intel more than a decade ago. And the rest!! I was using these when I was fresh out of University back in 1984 - yes, that's a whole two decades ago - last millenium!! (they weren't even new then - we were using the "new, improved" CMOS versions from Harris!) Raghunathan said:
They were fine at that time when you had 8085 They were actually for the 8086 - so not even designed for an 8-bit processor! |
