Solution

The configuration for IE=0X92 in 8051 microcontroller is as follows:

The IE register is an 8-bit register where each bit is used to enable/disable the specific interrupt. The bit configuration for IE register is:

  • Bit 7: EA -> Disables all interrupts. If EA=0, no interrupt will be acknowledged. If EA=1, each interrupt source is individually enabled or disabled by setting or clearing its enable bit.
  • Bit 6: - -> Undefined, reserved bit.
  • Bit 5: ES -> Enable or disable Serial interrupt.
  • Bit 4: ET1 -> Enable or disable Timer 1 interrupt.
  • Bit 3: EX1 -> Enable or disable External interrupt 1.
  • Bit 2: ET0 -> Enable or disable Timer 0 interrupt.
  • Bit 1: EX0 -> Enable or disable External interrupt 0.
  • Bit 0: - -> Undefined, reserved bit.

The hexadecimal value 0x92 can be converted to binary for easier understanding: 0x92 = 1001 0010 in binary.

So, the configuration for IE=0X92 would be:

  • EA (bit 7) = 1: All interrupts are globally enabled.
    • (bit 6) = 0: Reserved bit.
  • ES (bit 5) = 0: Serial interrupt is disabled.
  • ET1 (bit 4) = 0: Timer 1 interrupt is disabled.
  • EX1 (bit 3) = 1: External interrupt 1 is enabled.
  • ET0 (bit 2) = 0: Timer 0 interrupt is disabled.
  • EX0 (bit 1) = 0: External interrupt 0 is disabled.
    • (bit 0) = 0: Reserved bit.

So, the configuration IE=0X92 enables External interrupt 1 and globally enables all interrupts. However, Timer 0, Timer 1, External interrupt 0, and Serial interrupt are disabled.
