TITLE: FAMILIARIZATION WITH DATA TRANSFER INSTRUCTIONS

Objectives:

 To familiarize with immediate data transfer instructions and data transfer

from/to registers and memory
 To assemble and execute data transfer instructions for an 8085
microprocessor

Theory:

A. Data Transfer Instructions

 Group of instruction copy data from a source location to destination

location without modifying the contents of the source.
 Transfer of data may be between the registers or between register and
memory or between an I/O device and accumulator
 None of these instructions changes the flag

1. Immediate Data Transfer

a) MVI R, 8-bit DATA

• load 8 bit data to specified register R

• 2 byte instruction
• R may be Accumulator A or registers B,C,D,E,H,L
• E.g.
• MVI A,30H ; A30H
• MVI B,FFH ; BFFH
b) LXI Rp,16-bit data

• Load 16 bit data to specified register pair Rp

• 3 byte instruction
• RP may be B, D, H
• E.g.
• LXI B,1122H ; C 22H B 11H
• LXI H,5678H ; L 78H H 56H

2. Register to Register data transfer
a) MOV Rd,RS
 Move data from source register RS to destination register Rd
 1 byte instruction
 Rd and Rs may be Accumulator A or registers B,C,D,E,H,L
 E.g.
 MOV A,B ; A  B
 MOV D,H ; D  H
3. Data transfer to/from Memory
a) MVI M,8-bit data
• load memory immediate
• 2 byte instruction
• Loads the 8-bit data to the memory location whose address is
specified by the contents of HL pair.
• E.g.
• MVI M,55H ;[HL]  55H {suppose HL= 8050H,
[8050H]55H}

b) MOV M,R
• Move to memory from register
• Copy the contents of the specified register to memory. Here
memory is the location specified by contents of the HL register
pair.
• E.g.
• MOV M,B ; [HL]  B {suppose HL= 8060H and B=
11H then [8060H]11H}
c) MOV R,M
• Move to register from memory
• Copy the contents of memory location specified by HL pair to
specified register.
• E.g.
• MOV A,M ; A  [HL] {suppose HL= 8060H A 
[8060H]}
d) LDA 16-bit ADDRESS
• Load Accumulator direct
• 3-byte instruction

2
 • Loads the accumulator with the contents of memory
location whose address is specified by 16 bit address.
• E.g. LDA 9000H ; A  [9000H]
e) STA 16-bit ADDRESS
• Store accumulator content direct
• 3-byte instruction
• Stores the contents of accumulator to specified address
• E.g. STA 9050H ;[9050H]  A
f) LDAX Rp
• Load accumulator indirect
• 1 byte instruction
• Loads the contents of memory location pointed by the
contents of register pair to accumulator
• E.g. LDAX B ; A  [BC] {suppose B=80, C=50, A
[8050]=8-bit data
g) STAX Rp
• Store accumulator content indirect
• 1-byte instruction
• Stores the content of accumulator to memory location
pointed by the contents of register pair
• E.g. STAX D ; [DE]  A {suppose D=90, E=50, [9050]
A}

2. Write a program to move data from registers B and C to registers D and E
respectively. Register B contains BBH and C contains CCH.
3. Write a program to load data from memory address 8050H to register B and
store that data to memory address 8060H using memory pointer.
