The functions of ICs at Figure 1 are:

1. CPU (Central processing unit): Using Intel 8086, Using 4.9152Mhz.
2. ROM (Read Only Memory): It has program to control user's key input, LCD display, user's
program. 64K Byte, it has data communication program. Range of ROM Address is
F0000~FFFFFH.
3. SRAM (Static Random Access Memory): Input user's program & data. Address of memory is
00000H~0FFFFH, totally 64 KByte .
4. DISPLAY: It is LCD, 16(Character) × 2(Line).
5. KEY BOARD: It is used to input machine language and has 16 of hexa-decimal keys and 8 of
function keys.
6. SPEAKER: Able to test sound using with speaker and further more able to test synthesizer.
7. RS-232C: It is ready to do data communication with IBM compatible personal computer.
8. DOT MATRIX LED: To understand & test of dot matrix structure and principle of display it is
interfaced to 8255A (PPI).
9. A /D CONVERTER: Convert analog signal to digital signal using with ADC0804.
10. D /A CONVERTER: Convert digital signal to analog signal using with DAC0800 and it is
interfaced so as to more Level meter.
11. STEPPING MOTOR INTER FACE: So as to control stepping motor driver circuit of stepping
motor is interfaced. 12. POWER: AC 110~220V , DC +5V 3A , +12V 1A , -12V 0.5A SMPS.

Exercise 1: Store the following data as the contents of 01000H~01003H

respectively.
ADDRESS DATA ADDRESS DATA
01050 C0 01000 AB
01081 6F 01001 CD
01022 EF 01002 EF
01073 DA 01003 34

Arithmetic Instructions:
Arithmetic instructions include ADD, SUB, SBB, INC, MUL, DIV etc.
mnemonics. Their operations were explained in theory class and can be
found in the reference book.

 Find the Contents of AX, BX, DX, IP and Flag registers after each step and put
them in a tabular form.
 Explain operations of Arithmetic instructions and verify using your own
calculation.
 Explain the changes in the flag bits.

Procedure:
1. Write the assembly code (ASM code) in emulator (emu8086).
2. Save the file as ****.asm in the same folder where MASM execution is
present.
3. Open the MASM.exe.
4. MASM.exe is used create ****.LST and ****.OBJ files form ****.ASM file.
5. If there are errors or warnings of any kind, then ****.OBJ file will not be
generated.
6. The ****.LST file will show the desired MACHINE codes for any writtem ASM
codes. The machine codes found are to be typed via keyboard (input device)
of the MDA-8086 microprocessor trainer kit.
7. To go to address of a memory location press AD key. This command key
allows the user to set the 20 bit address of a memory location in the format
of [Segment:Offset].
8. To enter to the offset part we have to press the : key.

9. For exchanging the 8-bit data on a specific memory location press DA key.
10.When all data are in specific memory location press the RESET button.
11. Press STP (single step: this key allows executing one instruction at a time)
and + (increment by one: this key allows moving to the next memory location)
to see the step by step execution of the ASM code on the LCD unit.
12. Use REG and +,- to check the values of different register.
13. To execute the program fully press AD, : and then GO.
