The logic circuit used to generate the active low chip selects (CS) by an 8085 microprocessor to address a peripheral is shown in Figure. The peripheral will respond to addresses in the range.

E000-EFFF
000E-FFFE
1000-FFFF
0001-FFF1
Explanation:
Since, the CS signals is an active low signal so the output of NAND Gate must be 0 to assert the Chip Select signal. Hence, all inputs must be asserted to make the output zero.
Since, A12 is associated with an inverter, it must be LOW to be asserted.
A15 = 1, A14 = 1, A13 = 1, A12 = 0.
Minimum Address = 1110 0000 0000 0000 (E000 H)
Maximum Address = 1110 1111 1111 1111 (EFFF H)
