Machine Control Instructions (Part-II) - EI, DI, NOP, HLT

By
EI:
  • This instruction is used to set the interrupt enable flip flop so that all maskable interrupts are enabled.
  • After an interrupt is acknowledged, the interrupt enable flip flop is reset.
  • This instruction is used to re-enable the interrupts.
OPERATION: IE (FF) = 1
  • No flags are affected.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Implied addressing mode is used.
DI:
  • This instruction is used to reset the interrupt enable flip flop so that all maskable interrupts are disabled.
  • This instruction cannot disable TRAP since TRAP is a non-maskable interrupt.
OPERATION: IE (FF) = 0
  • No flags are affected.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Implied addressing mode is used.
NOP:
  • This instruction shows that no operation is performed.
OPERATION: PC = PC + 1
  • No flags are affected.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Implied addressing mode is used.
HLT:
  • This instruction is used to halt the processor.
  • The processor can be restarted by a valid interrupt or by applying a RESET signal.
OPERATION: Stop
  • No flags are affected.
  • It is a one byte instruction.
  • Implied addressing mode is used.

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...

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  ...
