This document provides information about assembly language and data movement instructions for microprocessors. It discusses conventions for moving data between registers and memory using instructions like MOV, PUSH, and POP. It also covers related topics like the stack organization, segment overrides, logical and arithmetic operations, data types including signed and unsigned integers, and examples of simple assembly language programs. The document is presented as lecture slides with definitions, syntax examples, and illustrations to explain key concepts in assembly language programming for microprocessors.

How are Assembly Instructions Used? Simple Assembly Program
Instructions Instructions written as list
MOV dest, src ; dest ← src MOV DX, 1122 ; DX ← 1122
ADD dest, src ; dest ← dest + src MOV AX, [3344] ; AX ← [DS:3344]
ADD AX, DX ; AX ← AX + DX
MOV BX, 5566 ; BX ← 5566
Program set-up by Operating System
MOV SI, 0008 ; SI ← 0008
1. Load program and data into memory
ADD AX, [BX+SI] ; AX ← AX + [DS:BX+SI]
2. Set CS, DS, SS, ES, IP, SP to program locations
MOV [BX], AX ; [DS:BX] ← AX
3. Set AX = BX = CX = DX = SI = DI = BP = 0
4. Load and run program from CS:IP CPU
Fetches next instruction in list
Decodes fetched instruction
Executes decoded instruction

/* DO ARITHMETIC WITH DS:BX = 1111:2222 */
80x86 processors control an I/O signal on the memory bus
/* SWITCH DATA TABLES */
MOV [SI], 4444 ; [SI] ← 4444 I/O signal is off to select processor access to RAM
; [SI+2] ← 3333
MOV [SI+2], 3333
I/O signal is on to select processor access to I/O bus
PUSH DS ; SP ← SP – 2
; [SS:SP] ← 1111 MOV selects RAM access
PUSH BX ; SP ← SP – 2 IN and OUT select I/O access
; [SS:SP] ← 2222
LDS BX,[SI] ; BX ← 4444
; DS ← 3333 AL or AX are always src/dest for I/O instructions
/* DO ARITHMETIC WITH DS:BX = 3333:4444 */
/* SWITCH BACK TO FIRST DATA TABLE */ I/O address is called a port
POP [SI] ; [SI] ← 2222 can range from 0000 H to FFFF H
; SP ← SP + 2
POP [SI+2] ; [SI+2] ← 1111 direct mode ⎯ 1 immediate byte address
; SP ← SP + 2 indirect mode ⎯ 2 address bytes in DX
LDS BX,[SI] ; BX ← 2222
; DS ← 1111
