What is ALE? Explain the functions of ALE in 8085.

Answer Posted / aparna das

ALE stands for address latch enable.this is a positive
going pulse every time when the 8085 microprocessor is in
operation.it indicates the bits on AD0-AD7 are address
bits.this signal is used to latch the lower order address
from the multiplexed bus,and generates separate set of 8-
address lines A0-A7.
