The registers described above, the program counter, memory address register, memory data register, instruction register, and accumulator, execute a repetitive cycle of events which will be described in some detail in the next section. Sometimes that cycle of events is broken or interrupted in order for the machine to perform some other function. For example, a controller may be 37 38 I LI__A_R_C_H_IT_E_C_T_U_R_E_O_F_M_I_C_R_O_P_R_O_C_E_S_SO_R_-_B_A_S_ED_S_Y_ST_E_M_S_--, performing the task of repetitively collecting sensor information at an input and storing that information in memory.
In what follows we will discuss the functions of the microprocessor-based system itself, introducing the concepts we have just learned as needed to describe some specific operations. 6 AN OVERVIEW OF THE ARCHITECTURE AND OPERATIONS OF A MICROPROCESSOR-BASED SYSTEM A discussion of the architecture and operation of a microcomputer is a good vehicle for introducing the general class of programmable microprocessorbased systems, including programmable controllers. Although there are differences based on manufacturer's specifications, we can describe the fundamentals of a typical microcomputer using the block diagram of Fig.
