When a peripheral is connected to the microprocessor in Input Output mode, the data transfer takes place between Correct Answer Accumulator and I/O device

Input Output mode:

  • In this mode of data transfer the operations are the results in I/O instructions which is a part of computer program.
  • Each data transfer is initiated by an instruction in the program.
  • Normally the transfer is from a CPU register (Accumulator) to peripheral I/O device or vice-versa.
  • Once the data is initiated the CPU starts monitoring the interface to see when next transfer can made.
  • The instructions of the program keep close tabs on everything that takes place in the interface unit and the I/O devices.

 

Note: In direct memory access (DMA), the data transfer takes place between memory and I/O device.
