Interrupt flag, Direction flag, and Sign flag.

6. What is assembly language?

The language in which the mnemonics (short -hand form of instructions) are used to write a
program is called assembly language. The manufacturers of microproces sor give the mnemonics.
7. What are machine language and assembly language programs?
The software developed using 1's and 0's are called machine language, programs. The software
developed using mnemonics are called assembly language programs.
8. What is the drawback in machine language and assembly language, programs?
The machine language and assembly language programs are machine dependent. The programs
developed using these languages for a particular machine cannot be directly run on another
machine.
9. Define bit, byte and word.
A digit of the binary number or code is called bit. Also, the bit is the fundamental storage unit of
computer memory.
The 8-bit (8-digit) binary number or code is called byte and 16-bit binary number or code is
called word. (Some microprocessor manufactures refer the basic data size operated by the
processor as word).
10. What is a bus?
Bus is a group of conducting lines that carries data, address and control signals.

VIVA QUES TIONS AND ANSWERS

1. What are the different types of Addressing Modes?

The different types of Addressing Modes are
Immediate, Direct, Register, Register Indirect, Indexed, Register Relative addressing modes

2.What are Data Copy/Transfer Instructions?

A:- Mov, Push, Pop, Xchg, In, Out, Xlat, Lea, Lds/Les, Lahf, Sahf, Pushf, Popf

3. What are Machine Control Instructions?

A:- Nop, Hlt, Wait, Lock

4) What are Flag Manipulation Instructions?

A:- Cld, Std, Cli, Sti

5) What are String Instructions?

A:- Rep, MovSB/MovSW, Cmps, Scas, Lods, Stos

6. Why data bus is bi-directional?

The microprocessor has to fetch (read) the data from memory or input device for processing a nd
after processing, it has to store (write) the data to memory or output device. Hence the data bus is
bi-directional.

7. Why address bus is unidirectional?

The address is an identification number used by the microprocessor to identify or access a
memory location or I / O device. It is an output signal from the processor. Hence the address bus
is unidirectional.

8. What is the function of microprocessor in a system?

The microprocessor is the master in the system, which controls all the activit y of the system. It
issues address and control signals and fetches the instruction and data from memory. Then it
executes the instruction to take appropriate action.

 VIVA QUES TIONS AND ANSWERS

1. Explain the difference between a JMP and CALL instruction?

A JMP instruction permanently changes the program counter.
A CALL instruction leaves information on the stack so that the original program execution
sequence can be resumed.

2. What is Assembler?
The assembler translates the assembly language program text which is given as input to the
assembler to their binary equivalents known as object code.

3 . What is the use of HLDA?

HLDA is the acknowledgment signal for HOLD. It indicates whether the HOLD signal is received
or not.
HOLD and HLDA are used as the control signals for DMA operations.

4. Explain about "LEA"?

LEA(Load Effective Address) is used for initializing a register with an offset address.
A common use for LEA is to intialize an offset in BX, DI or SI for indexing an address in
memory.

5. Difference between "Shift" and "Rotate".

Shift and Rotate commands are used to convert a number to another form where some bits are
shifted or rotated.
A rotate instruction is a closed loop instruction. That is, the data moved out at one end is put back
in at the other end.

6. What are the modes in which 8086 can operate?

The 8086 can operate in two modes and they are minimum (or uniprocessor) mode and
maximum ( or multiprocessor) mode.

7. What is the data and address size in 8086?

The 8086 can operate on either 8-bit or 16-bit data. The 8086 uses 20 bit address to access
memory and 16-bit address to access 1/0 devices.

8. Explain the function of M/IO in 8086.

The signal M/IO is used to differentiate memory address and 1/0 address When the processor is
accessing memory locations MI 10 is asserted high and when it is accessing 1/0 mapped devices
it is asserted low.

 4. CODE CONVERSION, DECIMAL ARITHMETIC AND MATRIX OPERATIONS

4a) Hexadecimal to Decimal code conversion

Aim:
To write an assembly language program to convert hexadecimal number into decimal
number

Algorithm:
1. Load the number to be converted into the accumulator.
2. If the number is less than 100 (64H), go to next step; otherwise, subtract 100 (64H)
repeatedly until the remainder is less than 100 (64H). Have the count(100‟s value) in
separate register which is the carry.
3. If the number is less than 10 (0AH), go to next step; otherwise, subtract 10 (0AH)
repeatedly until the remainder is less than 10 (0AH). Have the count(ten‟s value) in
separate register.
4. The accumulator now has the units.
5. Multiply the ten‟s value by 10 and add it with the units.
6. Store the result and carry in the specified memory location.

 VIVA QUES TIONS AND ANSWERS

1. Difference between JMP and JNC?

A:-JMP is Unconditional Branch.
JNC is Conditional Branch.

2.What are the 4 Segments in 8086?

A:-Code Segment Register {CS}
Data Segment Register {DS}
Extra Segment Register {ES}
Stack Segment Register {SS}

3. Distinguish between packed BCD and unpacked BCD

Packed BCD numbers are stored two digits to a byte in 4 bit groups referred as nibbles
Ex:86 in unpacked BCD there is only one digit per byte Ex: 08, 06

4. Describe CBW and CWD instructions

The CBW and CWDE mnemonics reference the same opcode. The CBW instruction is intended for use
when the operand-size attribute is 16 and the CWDE instruction for when the operand-size attribute is 32.
The CWDE instruction is different from the CWD (convert word to double) instruction. The CWD
instruction uses the DX:AX register pair as a destination operand; whereas, the CWDE instruction uses the
EAX register as a destination.

5. Describe about MUL, IMUL, DIV, IDIV instructions

MUL (multiply) instruction is used for unsigned multiplication. This instruction multiplies bytes or
words.
IMUL (Integer multiply) instruction is used for signed multiplication. This instruction multiply bytes or
words.
The DIV instruction is to divide unsigned data. We can divide a byte by byte, a word by byte, double word by
word.
The IDIV instruction is to divide signed data. We can divide a byte by byte, a word by byte, double word by
word and the operations are just like DIV instructions

6.Describe about LOOP instructions

The LOOP instruction is a combination of a decrement of CX and a conditional jump. In the 8086, LOOP
decrements CX and if CX is not equal to zero, it jumps to the address indicated by the label. If CX becomes a
0, the next sequential instruction executes.

VIVA QUES TIONS AND ANSWERS

1. How do you read and write characters on to screen using interrupts?

An interrupt is a condition that causes the microprocessor to temporarily work on a
different task, and then later return to its previous task. Interrupts can be internal or external.

2. What is the significance of LEA instruction?

LEA(Load Effective Address) is used for initializing a register with an offset address.
A common use for LEA is to intialize an offset in BX, DI or SI for indexing an address in
memory.
An equivalent operation to LEA is MOV with the OFFSET operator, which generates slightly
shorter machine code.

3. What is an assembler directive?

An assembler directive is a direct command to microprocessor to perform certain operations.

4. How the assembler process is carried out in 8086?

A microprocessor executes a collection of machine instructions that tell the processor what to do
is known as assembly process.

5. How a procedure is represented in assemble r directive?

Procedures are a group of instructions stored as a separate program in memory and it is called
from the main program whenever required. The type of procedure depends on where the
procedures are stored in memory. If it is in the same code segment as that of the main program
then it is a near procedure otherwise it is a far procedure.

VIVA QUES TIONS AND ANSWERS

1. Give some examples of input devices to microprocessor-based system.

The input devices used in the microprocessor-based system are Keyboards, DIP switches, ADC, Floppy
disc, etc.

2. What are the tasks involved in keyboard interface?

The tasks involved in keyboard interfacing are sensing a key actuation, debouncing the key and
generating key codes (Decoding the key). These task are performed software if the keyboard is interfaced
through ports and they are performed by hardware if the keyboard is interfaced through 8279.

3. How a keyboard matrix is formed in keyboard interface using 8279?

The return lines, RLo to RL7 of 8279 are used to form the columns of keyboard matrix. In decoded scan
the scan lines SLo to SL3 of 8279 are used to form the rows of keyboard matrix. In encoded scan mode,
the output lines of external decoder are used as rows of keyboard matrix.

4. What is scanning in keyboard and what is scan time?

The process of sending a zero to each row of a keyboard matrix and reading the columns for key actuation
is called scanning. The scan time is the time taken by the processor to scan all the rows one by one
starting from first row and coming back to the first row again.

5. What is scanning in display and what is the scan time?

In display devices, the process of sending display codes to 7 -segment LEDs to display the LEDs one by
one is called scanning ( or multiplexed display). The scan time is the time taken to display all the 7-
segment LEDs one by one, starting from first LED and coming back to the first LED again.

 VIVA QUES TIONS AND ANSWERS

1. What is baud rate?

The baud rate is the rate at which the serial data are transmitted. Baud rate is defined as l /(The
time for a bit cell). In some systems one bit cell has one data bit, then the baud rate and bits/sec are
same.

2. What is USART?
The device which can be programmed to perform Synchronous or Asynchronous serial
communication is called USART (Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter).
The INTEL 8251A is an example of USART.

3. What are the functions performe d by INTEL 8251A?

The INTEL 825lA is used for converting parallel data to serial or vice versa. The data transmission
or reception can be either asynchronously or synchro nously. The 8251A can be used to interface
MODEM and establish serial communication through MODEM over telephone lines.

4. What is an Inte rrupt?

Interrupt is a signal send by an external device to the processor so as to request the processor to
perform a particular task or work.

5. What are the control words of 8251A and what are its functions?
The control words of 8251A are Mode word and Command word.
The mode word informs 8251 about the baud rate, character length, parity and stop bits. The
command word can be send to enable the data transmission and reception.

6. What are the information that can be obtained from the status word of 8251?
The status word can be read by the CPU to check the readiness of the transmitter or receiver and to
check the character synchronization in synchronous reception. It also provides information
regarding various errors in the data received. The various error conditions that can be checked from
the status word are parity error, overrun error and framing error.

VIVA QUES TIONS AND ANSWERS

1. Give some examples of port devices used in 8085 microprocessor based system?
The various INTEL I/O port devices used in 8085 microprocessor based system are 8212, 8155, 8156,
8255, 8355 and 8755.

2. Write a short note on INTEL 8255?

The INTEL 8255 is a I/O port device consisting of 3 numbers of 8 –bit parallel I/O ports. The ports can be
programmed to function either as a input port or as a output port in different operating modes. It requires
4 internal addresses and has one logic LOW chip select pin.

3. What is the drawback in memory mapped I/0?

When I/O devices are memory mapped, some of the addresses are allotted to I/O devices and so the full
address space cannot be used for addressing memory (i.e., physical memory address space will be
reduced). Hence memory mapping is useful only for small systems, where the memory requirement is
less.

4. How DMA is initiated?

When the I/O device needs a DMA transfer, it will send a DMA request signal to DMA controller. The
DMA controller in turn sends a HOLD request to the processor. When the processor receives a HOLD
request, it will drive its tri-stated pins to high impedance state at the end of current instruction execution
and send an acknowledge signal to DMA controller. Now the DMA controller will perform DMA
transfer.

5. What is processor cycle (Machine cycle)?

The processor cycle or machine cycle is the basic operation performed by the processor. To execute an
instruction, the processor will run one or more machine cycles in a particular order.

6. What is Instruction cycle?

The sequence of operations that a processor has to carry out while executing the instruction is called
Instruction cycle. Each instruction cycle of a processor indium consists of a number of machine cycles.

1. What is DPTR?
DPTR is a data pointer register in 8051 , which is of 2 bytes(16bits)....DPH,DPL

2. What is the difference between Microprocessor and Microcontroller?

Key difference in both of them is presence of external peripheral, where microcontrollers have RAM,
ROM, EEPROM embedded in it while we have to use external circuits in case of microprocessors. ... As all the
peripheral o f microcontroller are on single chip it is co mpact while microprocessor is bulky.

3.What is the use of stack pointer?

Stack pointer points the top of stack.

4. What is the use of SJ MP?

SJMP ju mps unconditionally to the address specified reladdr. Reladdr must be within -128 or
+127 bytes of the instruction that follows the SJMP instruction.

5. What is meant by Register Bank?

The 8051 microcontroller has a total of 128 bytes of RAM.
We will discuss about the allocation of these 128 bytes of RAM and examine their usage as stack and register.
... These 32 bytes are divided into four register banks in wh ich each bank has 8 reg isters, R0– R7.

6.What is the use of Accumul ator?

An accumulator is a register for short-term, intermediate storage of arith metic and logic data in a co mputer's

VIVA QUES TIONS AND ANSWERS

1. Expl ain ANL Instruction.

The ANL instruction performs a bit wise logical A ND operation between the specified byte or bit operands and
stores the result in the destination operand.

2. Expl ain S wap Instruction.

Swap instruction swaps the contents of two registers

3. What is meant by CPL instruction?

CPL performs co mp lement operation.It converts 0‟s to 1‟s and vice versa.

4. What is the difference between SJ MP and LJ MP?

SJMP, LJMP, AJMP. Short ju mp, relative address is 8 bit it support 127 location fo rward, Long ju mp range is 64
kb, Absolute jump to anywhere ...

5. What is the use of MOVX instructi on?

The MOVX instruction transfers data between the accumulator and external data memory. External memo ry may
be addressed via 16-b its in the DPTR register or v ia 8-b its in the R0 or R1 registers. When using 8-bit addressing,
Port 2 must contain the high-order byte of the address

6. What is meant by watch dog ti mer?

A watchdog ti mer (WDT) is a hardware timer that automatically generates a system reset if the main program
neglects to periodically service it. It is often used to automatically reset an embedded device that hangs because
of a software or hard ware fault.

 VIVA QUES TIONS AND ANSWERES

1. What is meant by „packed B CD‟ number?

Packed BCD is the first and second number is represented as the first 4 bits and last 4 bits in a byte. The number
75 in packed B CD would be 01110101. Unpacked BCD is each number is represented by its own byte. The number
75 in unpacked BCD would be 00000111 and 00000101

2. Differentiate between ANL and ORL instruction.

The different ways of pointing out an operand's location (source and destination) are.. For the ANL (A ND) and ORL
(oR) bit oriented operations, the source bit may use it.

3. What does SWAP A instruction do?

The SWAP instruction exchanges the low-order and high-order nibbles within the accumu lator. No flags are affected by
this instruction. See Also: XCH, XCHD ...

4. Differentiate between Packed and Unpacked BCD numbers .

Packed B CD is the first and second number are represented as the first 4 bits and last 4 bits in a byte. The number
75 in packed BCD would be 01110101. Unpacked BCD is each number is represented by its own byte. The number
75 in unpacked B CD wou ld be 00000111 and 00000101

5. What is meant by ASCII code?

ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. Below is the ASCII character table,
including descriptions of the first 32 characters .
