Problem: Write a sample program for

1) Addition of Two 16-bit numbers.
2) To find smallest no. from a given string.

Tools Required: MASM, 8086 Kit

Theory:
The 8086 is a 16-bit processor having 20 address lines, 16- Data lines & 8-bit
as well as 16-bit registers is as follows
1) General purpose registers: AX (AH-AL), BX (BH-BL), CX (CH-CL), DX
(DH-DL).
2) Flag register.- 9-Bit Flag
3) Segment & offset registers- CS, DS, SS, ES these are four segment
registers. SI, DI, BP, SP, IP & BX these are offset registers.
4) Segmentation of memory: Memory of 8086 is divided into different
segments. One segment having maximum capacity of 64Kb, so max. 16
segments are there.
At a time four segments can be activating, these are code segment, data
segment, stack segment & Extra segment.

1. Software Suit, which is used for Practical, is MASM (Micro Assembler)

It is DOS based software suit, so we have to work with DOS prompt.

2. It consist of following application files:

i) Editor (Norton Editor (NE))

ii) Assembler (MASM)
iii) Linker (LINK)
iv) Debugger (AFDEBUG)

I) Editor:

It is a software tool, which allowed user to write its source code in

assembly language and save the assembly file by using .ASM extension. All
application programs are copied into D drive under the folder name MASM.
To enter into Norton editor use following command on DOS prompt.

D:\masm>NE (Press Enter Key)

Enter the File Name with .ASM extension (eg. Program1.asm) Write a
program in editor window with the help of assembler directives
II) Assembler:

It is a software tool, which is used to convert source code (.ASM) into object
code (.OBJ). Use following command

D:\masm>MASM filename.asm (Press Enter key 4-times)

Eliminate all sever error then proceed for next steps.

III) Linker:

Once source code is assembled, the resulting object file is passed to the linker.
At this point, the linker may combine several object files into an executable
program. The linker:
1) Combines segments according to the instructions in the object files,
rearranging the positions of segments that share the same class or group.
2) Fills in placeholders for offsets (relocatable addresses).
3) Writes relocations for segments into the header of .EXE files
4) Writes the result as an executable program file.

D:\masm>LINK filename.obj (Press Enter key 4-times)

IV) Debugger:

It is a software tool, which is used to load the .EXE file in RAM memory
location and execute it in single stepping mode.

D:\masm>AFDEBUG (Press Enter key 2-Times)

There you will observe command prompt of debug window i.e. CMD
Use different command for different operation. Press F4 key to view different
command. (e.g. L operator is used to load the .EXE file to executable window)
Execute the program by pressing F1 key.

Sample Program:

Step-1: Initialize the data memory segment where two 16-bit data are present.
Step-2: Fetch 1st 16-bit data into any 16-bit general-purpose register (GPR).

Aim: Write a program to design to generate a delay of 1 second Mode 2.

Problem: The delay of 1 second is to be monitored on port 1 pin p1.0 which

connects an LED and is made off and on per second.

Tools Required: UMPS, Keil compiler

Theory:

Mode 2 is the auto reload mode of the timer. In this mode initially the TMOD
register is loaded with the value needed and the count is loaded in THx
register. When the timer is started (TRx) the count value (TLx) is
automatically loaded into TLx register and the counter starts incrementing
(Up-counter). We monitors the timer flag bit TFx. When it becomes 1 we clear
it and same procedure is repeated for the same count, which is reloaded
automatically from the THx, register. For one cycle we complement the bit
P1.0. We use the standard input frequency for 8051 Microcontroller – 11.0592
MHz. This crystal frequency is internally divided by 12 to give
T=1.085µsec.(Time for one clock cycle)

Procedure:

Step-1: Set initial value for the port bit P1.0.

Step-2: Load the TMOD register.
Step-3: Load the count in THx register.
Step-4: Initiate the Timer Run Register.
Step-5: Check the timer Flag. If it is 1 complement the port bit P1.0 otherwise
keep monitoring the TF flag bit.

least significant bit of the number. If the bit is zero, the number is zero or the number
is odd. Check the LSB by rotating the number through carry flag, and increment even
or odd number counter.

Procedure:
Step1: Initialize the data memory segment

registers. Rotate it left through carry. The status of carry flag, i.e. the most
significant bit of the number will give the information about the sign of the number.
If CF is 1, the number is negative otherwise it is positive.

Step 3: Out mode control word 0FEH to D0-D7.
Step 4: Load command word to transmit enable and error reset and read
status.
Step 5: Check transmitter enable bit, if zero wait for the transmitter to be
ready.
Step 6: If ready, first byte of string data is transmitted and point to next byte.
Step 7: Decrement counter.
Step 8: If counter is not zero, go for next byte and if counter is zero then
return to DOS.

Procedure to receive 100 bytes of data:

Step 1: Calculate command instruction word as 14H
Step 2: Initialize data segment.
Step 3: Initialize counter.
Step 4: Load command word to enable the receiver and disable transmitter.
Step 5: Read status and check FE, 0E and PE. If it is zero then check
RXRDY. If the receiver is not ready then wait. If it is ready then
receiver the character.
Step 6: If it is not zero, clear them.
Step 7: Increment pointer to next byte and decrement counter.
Step 8: Repeat if counter is not zero and if counter is zero then return to
DOS.
Conclusion:
The data has been transferred and received correctly.

Aim: Write a program to find the given byte from a string using string
related instructions.

Problem: Write a program to find out whether a given byte is in the string or not.
If it is in the string, find out the relative address of the byte from the
starting location of the string.

Tools Required: MASM, 8086 Kit

Theory:

The given string is scanned for the given byte. If it is found in the string, the zero flag
is set, else it is reset. Use of the SCASB instruction is quite obvious here. A count
should be maintained to find out the relative address of the byte found out.

Procedure:

Step1: Initialize the data segment.

Step2: Initialize the counter.
Step3: For the given byte which we want to search, the given string is
scanned.
Step4: If the byte is found in the string, the zero flag will set, otherwise it will
reset.
Step5: If the byte will found, store the relative address of the byte.

Conclusion:

The given number has been identified from the given string and the result of
program is observed as follows.

Viva Questions:

1. Explain the different string related instructions.

2. Can string related instructions support for direct memory transfer?

3. Which is default register used as counter in string related instructions.

Aim: Interface 8253 timer IC with 8086 and write a program to ring the
buzzer after a delay of 2 Min.

Problem: Design a programmable timer using 8253 and 8086. Interface 8253 at
an address 0040H for counter 0 and write the program to generate a
square wave of period 1ms.

Tools Required: MASM, 8086 Kit, 8253 card.

Theory:

Neglecting the higher order address lines (A16-A8), the 8253 is interfaced with lower
order data bus (d0-D7), hence A0 is used for selecting the even bank. The A0 and A1
of the 8253 are connected with A1 and A2 of the processor. The counter address can
be decoded as 40H for Counter 0, 42H for Counter 1, 44 for Counter 2, 46H for
Control word register.
For generating a square wave, 8253 should be used in mode 3. Let us select counter 0
for this purpose that will be operated in BCD mode. Now suitable count is to be
calculated for generating 1ms time period.

Procedure:

Step 1: Initialize 8253 by initializing control word register.

Step 2: Use counter 0 in mode 3.
Step 3: Write 00 decimal in LSB of count register and 15 decimal in MSB as a
count.
Step 4: Start the timer.

Aim: Interface 8279 with 8086 to read the character from keyboard and
display it on 7-segment display.

Problem:

Interface keyboard and display controller 8279 with 8086 at addresses 0080H. Write
an ALP to set up 8279 in scanned keyboard mode with encoded scan, N-key rollover
mode. Use a 16-character display in right entry display format. Then clear the
display RAM with zeroes. Read the FIFO for key closure. If any key is closed, store
its code to register CL. Then write the byte 55 to all the displays and return to DOS.
The lock input to 8279 is 2MHz, operate it at 100 kHz.

Tools Required: MASM, 8086 Kit, 8279 interfacing card.

Theory:

The 8279 is interfaced with lower byte of the data bus, i.e. D0-D7. Hence the A0
input of 8279 is connected with address line A1. The data register of 8279 is to be
addressed as 0080H, i.e. A0=0. For addressing the command or status word A0 input
of 8279 should be 1 (the address line A1 of 8086 should be 1), i.e. the address of the
command word should be 0082H.

Procedure:

Step1: Set 8379 command words according to program i.e. Keyboard/Display

Mode Set CW, Program clock selection, Clear Display RAM, Read
FIFO, Write Display RAM commands.
Step2: Read FIFO command for checking display RAM.
Step3: Wait for clearing of Display RAM by reading FIFO Du bit of the status
word i.e. if Du bit is not set wait, else proceed.
Step4: Read FIFO command for checking key closure, also read FIFO status.
Step5: Mask all bits except the number of characters bits. If any key is
pressed, take required action; otherwise proceed to write display RAM
by using write display command.
Step 6: Write the byte 55H to all display RAM locations.
Step 7: Call routine to read the key code of the pressed key is assumed
available.
