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                             ; Terminate program execution

Program 2 using indirect addressing instructions:

LXI H, 2000H               ; HL points to location 2000H
LXI D, 2001H               ; DE points to location 2001H
MOV B, M                    ; Get the contents of location 2000H into register B
LDAX D                        ; Get the contents of location 2001H into accumulator
MOV M, A                    ; Move the contents of accumulator into location 2000H
MOV A, B                     ; Move the contents of register B into accumulator
STAX D                         ; Store the contents of accumulator into loaction 2001H
HLT                                ; Terminate program execution

Logical Group Instructions (Part-VI) - RLC, RRC, RAL, RAR

By
RLC: This instruction rotates the contents of accumulator to the left by one bit. It will shift B0 to B1, B1 to B2,............B7 to B0 as well as to carry flag . Only CY flag is modified. It is a one byte instruction. Implied addressing mode is used. Before execution: After execution: Example: If A = 0101 0111 = 57H and CY = 1 RLC ; Now A = 10101110 = AEH and CY = 0. RRC: This instruction rotates the contents of accumulator to the right by one bit. It will shift B7 to B6, B6 to B5,............B0 to B7 as well as to carry flag. Only CY flag is modified. It is a one byte instruction. Implied addressing mode is used. Before execution: After execution: Example: If A = 1001 1010 = 9AH and CY = 1 RLC ; Now A = 0100 1101 = 4DH and CY = 0. RAL: This instruction rotates the contents of accumulator to the left by one bit along with the carry . It will shift B0 to B1, B1 to B2,............B7 to CY and CY to B0 . Only CY flag is modifi...

Logical Group Instructions (Part-I) - ANA and ANI

By
ANA R:  This instruction logically AND the contents of the specified register with the contents of the accumulator. Register R can be any 8-bit general purpose register like A, B, C, D, E, H and L. The result is stored in the accumulator. S (Sign flag), Z (Zero flag), P (Parity flag) are modified. CY (Carry flag) is reset and AC (Auxiliary Carry flag) is set. It is a one byte instruction. Register addressing mode is used. Example: If A = 0101 1001 = 59H and B = 0000 0011 = 03H ANA B ; This instruction will logically AND the contents of A (59H) with the contents of B (03H) and the result (01H) is stored in A. ANA M: This instruction logically AND the contents of the memory location pointed by HL register pair with the contents of the accumulator. The result is stored in the accumulator. S (Sign flag), Z (Zero flag), P (Parity flag) are modified. CY (Carry flag) is reset and AC (Auxiliary Carry flag) is set. It is a one byte instruction. Register indirect a...
