Arithmetic Group Instructions (Part-II)

ADI 8-bit data:
  • This instruction adds the 8-bit data given within the instruction itself to the contents of the accumulator.
  • The result is stored in the accumulator.
  • All flags are modified.
  • It is a two byte instruction.
  • Immediate addressing mode is used.
Example:
If A = 20H
ADI 56H ; This instruction adds the contents of A (20H) to 56H and result 76H is stored in A.

ACI 8-bit data:
  • This instruction adds the 8-bit data given within the instruction itself and the carry flag to the contents of the accumulator.
  • The result is stored in the accumulator.
  • All flags are modified.
  • It is a two byte instruction.
  • Immediate addressing mode is used.
Example:
If A = 30H and CY = 1
ACI 20H ; This instruction adds the contents of A (30H) to 20H with carry (1) and result 51H is stored in A.

DAD Rp:
  • This instruction adds the contents of specified register pair to the contents of HL register pair.
  • The result is stored in HL register pair.
  • Rp is 16-bit register pair like BC, DE, HL or SP.
  • Only higher order register is specified for the register pair.
  • Only carry flag is modified.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Register addressing mode is used.
Example:
If DE = 1000H and HL = 2000H
DAD D ; This instruction adds the contents of DE (1000H) with HL (2000H) and result (3000H) is stored in HL.

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  ...

Stack Operations Instructions (Part-II) - SPHL and XTHL

SPHL: This instruction copies the contents of HL register pair to the stack pointer (SP). It means that the stack pointer will now point to the memory location whose address was given in the HL register pair. No flags are affected. It is a one byte instruction. Register addressing mode is used. Example: If HL = 2030H, then SPHL ; This instruction will copy 2030H into SP. So SP will point to the memory location 2030H. XTHL: This instruction exchanges the contents of the memory location pointed by stack pointer with the contents of the L register and the contents of the next memory location with the contents of H register. This instruction does not alter the contents of the stack pointer. No flags are affected. It is a one byte instruction. Register Indirect addressing mode is used. Example: If HL = 5601H, SP = 2000H, (2000H) = 30H and (2001H) = 20H, then XTHL ; This instruction will exchange the contents of the memory location 2000H i.e. 3...
