Microprocessor
Let the content of accumulator and register B be 0000 0100 and 0100 0000 respectively before execution of instruction SUB B. The content of accumulator after the execution of this instruction will be
DMA controller taking over the address, data and control buses while a block of data is transferred between memory and I/O device
Data transfer takes place between the I/O device and memory during every alternate clock cycle
The DMA control waiting for the microprocessor to finish execution of the program and then takes over the buses
While the microprocessor is executing a program an interface circuit takes over control of address, data, control buses when not in use by microprocessor
