Hi am Jaswanth i would like to get details on animation of 8086 architecture working ..My friend Justin said animation of 8086 architecture working will be available here and now i am living at Hyderabad and i last studied in the college/school CVSR College of and now am doing teaching i need help on Animation of 8086, Animation of 8255.

Architecture of 8086
Unlike microcontrollers, microprocessors do not have inbuilt memory. Mostly Princeton architecture is used for microprocessors where data and program memory are combined in a single memory interface. Since a microprocessor does not have any inbuilt peripheral, the circuit is purely digital and the clock speed can be anywhere from a few MHZ to a few hundred MHZ or even GHZ. This increased clock speed facilitates intensive computation that a microprocessor is supposed to do.
We will discuss the basic architecture of Intel 8086 before discussing more advanced microprocessor architectures.
Internal architecture of Intel 8086:
Intel 8086 is a 16 bit integer processor. It has 16-bit data bus and 20-bit address bus. The lower 16-bit address lines and 16-bit data lines are multiplexed (AD0-AD15). Since 20-bit address lines are available, 8086 can access up to 2 20 or 1 Giga byte of physical memory.
