Arithmetic Group Instructions (Part-I)

ADD R: 
  • This instruction adds the contents of register R with the contents of the accumulator.
  • Register R can be any general purpose register like A, B, C, D, E, H and L.
  • The result is stored in the accumulator.
  • All the flags are modified.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Register addressing mode is used.
Example:
If A = 30H and B = 10H
ADD B ; This instruction adds the contents of A i.e. 30H to the contents of B i.e. 10H and the result i.e. 40H is stored in A.

ADD M:
  • This instruction adds the contents of the memory location pointed by HL register pair with the contents of the accumulator.
  • The result is stored in the accumulator.
  • All the flags are modified.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Register indirect addressing mode is used.
Example:
If HL = 2000H, (2000H) = 50H and A = 10H
ADD M ; This instruction adds the contents of memory location 2000H i.e. 50H to the contents of A i.e. 10H and result 60H is stored in A.

ADC R: 
  • This instruction adds the contents of specified register to the contents of the accumulator with carry.
  • Register R can be any general purpose register like A, B, C, D, E, H and L.
  • The result is stored in the accumulator.
  • All the flags are modified.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Register addressing mode is used.
Example:
If CY = 1, A = 20H and C = 30H
ADC C ; This instruction adds the contents of C (30H) to the contents of A (20H) with carry (1) and the result 51H is stored in A.

ADC M:
  • This instruction adds the contents of the memory location pointed by HL register pair with the contents of the accumulator with carry.
  • The result is stored in the accumulator.
  • All the flags are modified.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Register indirect addressing mode is used.
Example:
If HL = 3000H, (3000H) = 20H, A =40H and CY = 1
ADC M ; This instruction adds the contents of memory location 3000H i.e. 20H to the contents of A i.e. 40H with carry (1) and result 61H is stored in A.

Program to pack the two unpacked BCD numbers

Statement: Pack the two unpacked BCD numbers stored in memory locations 2000H and 2001H and store the result in memory location 2002H. The least significant digit is stored at 2000H. Example: (2000H) = 04H (2001H) = 09H Result = (2002H) = 94H Program: LDA 2001H                        ; Obtain the most significant BCD digit RLC                                    ; Rotate left  RLC                                    ; Rotate left  RLC                                    ; Rotate left  RLC                                    ; Rotate left...

Program to exchange the contents of two memory locations

Statement: Exchange the contents of memory locations 2000H and 2001H. Example:  Initially, (2000H) = 34H (2001H) = 20H After exchanging, (2000H) = 20H (2001H) = 34H Program 1 using direct addressing instructions: LDA 2000H               ; Get the contents of location 2000H into accumulator MOV B, A                  ; Move the contents of accumulator into register B LDA 2001H                ; Get the contents of location 2001H into accumulator STA 2000H                 ; Store the contents of accumulator into location 2000H MOV A, B                  ; Move the contents of register B into accumulator STA 2001H                 ; Store the contents of accumulator into location 2001H HLT  ...

Program to add the contents of two memory locations

Statement: Add the contents of memory locations 2000H and 2001H and place the result in the memory locations 2002H and 2003H. Example: (2000H) = C3H (2001H) = 29H Result = C3H + A9H = 016CH (2002H) = 6CH (2003H) = 01H Program: LXI H, 2000H                   ; HL points to location 2000H MOV A, M                        ; Move the contents of 2000H into accumulator INX H                                ; HL points to location 2001H ADD M                              ; Add the contents of 2001H with the contents of accumulator INX H                                ; HL points to location 2002H MOV M, A      ...
