Generate a delay of 0.4 seconds(8085)

Statement:Write a program to generate a delay of 0.4 sec if the crystal frequency is 5 MHz

Calculation: In 8085, the operating frequency is half of the crystal frequency,
ie.Operating frequency = 5/2 = 2.5 MHz
Time for one T -state =
Number of T-states required =
= 1 x 106
