Instruction set

Instruction set groups


Instruction Set Definition
• The data transfer group includes instructions for moving data between registers,
register and memory, register and stack memory, and accumulator and IO device.
• The arithmetic group includes instructions for addition and subtraction of binary,
BCD and ASCII data, and instructions for multiplication and division of signed and
unsigned binary data.
• The logical group includes instructions for performing logical operations like AND,
OR, Exclusive-OR, Complement, Shift, Rotate, etc.
• The string manipulation group includes instructions for moving string data
between two memory locations and comparing string data word by word or byte
by byte.
• The control transfer group includes instructions to call a procedure / subroutine in
the main program. It also includes instructions to jump from one part of a program
to another part either conditionally or unconditionally (without checking flags).
• The processor control group includes instructions to set / clear the flags, to delay
and halt the processor execution.
Data Transfer Instructions
• Instruction to transfer a word
MOV −Used to copy the byte or word from the
provided source to the provided destination.
PPUSH −Used to put a word at the top of the stack.
POP −Used to get a word from the top of the stack to
the provided location.
PUSHA −Used to put all the registers into the stack.
POPA −Used to get words from the stack to all
registers.
XCHG −Used to exchange the data from two locations.
XLAT −Used to translate a byte in AL using a table in
the memory.
Data Transfer Instructions
Instructions for input and output port transfer
IN −Used to read a byte or word from the provided port to the
accumulator.
OUT −Used to send out a byte or word from the accumulator to the
provided port.
Instructions to transfer the address
LEA −Used to load the address of operand into the provided register.
LDS −Used to load DS register and other register from the memory
LES −Used to load ES register and other register from the memory.
Instructions to transfer flag registers
LAHF −Used to load AH with the low byte of the flag register.
SAHF −Used to store AH register to low byte of the flag register.
PUSHF −Used to copy the flag register at the top of the stack.
POPF −Used to copy a word at the top of the stack to the flag register.
