Data Transfer Group Instructions (Part-I)

By
MOV Rd, Rs : 
  • This instruction copies data from source register Rs to destination register Rd. 
  • Source and destination register can be any 8-bit general purpose register like A, B, C, D, E, H and L. 
  • Contents of source register remain unchanged.
  • No flags are affected.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Register addressing mode is used in this instruction.
Example:
MOV B, C
MOV D, H

MOV R, M: 
  • This instruction copies data from memory location pointed by HL register pair to register R. 
  • R can be any 8-bit general purpose register like A, B, C, D, E, H and L.
  • No flags are affected.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Indirect addressing mode is used in this instruction.
Example:
MOV C, M
MOV H, M

MOV M, R: 

  • This instruction copies the data from register R to the memory location pointed by HL register pair.
  • R can be any 8-bit general purpose register like A, B, C, D, E, H and L.
  • No flags are affected.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Indirect addressing mode is used in this instruction.
Example:
MOV M, C
MOV M, H

Program to pack the two unpacked BCD numbers

By
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

By
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

By
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...
