Logic Instructions
• Arithmetic and Logic Instructions and Programs
▪ XOR (Exclusive-OR) Instruction
Format: XOR dest, source ; dest = dest ӿ source
Ex: MOV DH,54H

XOR DH,78H
Solution: 54H 01010100

ӿ 78H ӿ 01111000
2CH 00101100 SF=0, ZF=0, PF=0, CF=OF=0
• The XOR instruction can be used to clear contents of a register by XORing it with itself.
Ex: Assume CH=35H
XOR CH,35H
Solution: 35H 00110101

35H 00110101
00 00000000 SF=0, ZF=1, PF=1, CF=OF=0

Logic Instructions
• Arithmetic and Logic Instructions and Programs
▪ XOR (Exclusive-OR) Instruction
Format: XOR dest, source ; dest = dest ӿ source
• The XOR instruction can be used to toggle bits of an operand.
Ex: XOR BL,04H ;XOR BL with 000 0100
Solution: This will cause bit 2 of BL to change to the opposite value; all other bits would remain
unchanged.
8086
Shift Instructions
▪ SHR (Shift Right) Instruction
Format: SHR dest, count ; shift dest right count times
0 MSB LSB CF
• This is the logical shift right. The dest operand is shifted right bit by bit, and for every shift
the LSB will go to the CF and MSB is filled with a zero.
Ex: MOV AL,9AH

MOV CL,3 ;set number of times to shift
SHR AL,CL
Solution: 9AH 10011010

01001101 CF=0 (shifted once)
00100110 CF=1 (shifted twice)
00010011 CF=0 (shifted three times)
After three times of shifting AL=13H and CF=0
•dest operand can be in a register or memory. Immediate addressing mode is not possible.
•If the dest. operand is to be shifted once only 1 can be used instead of CL.
8086
Shift Instructions
▪ SHL (Shift Left) Instruction
Format: SHL dest, count ; shift dest left count times
CF MSB LSB 0
• SHL is also a logical shift instruction. The operand is shifted left bit by bit, and for every shift
the LSB is filled with a zero (0) and the MSB goes into CF.
Ex: MOV DH,6

MOV CL,4 ;set number of times to shift
SHL DH,CL
Solution: 00000110
CF=0 00001100 (shifted left once)
CF=0 00011000
CF=0 00110000
CF=0 01100000 (shifted left 4 times)
After the 4 shifts DH=60H and CF=0.
• dest operand can be in a register or memory. Immediate addressing mode is not possible.
• If the dest. operand is to be shifted once only 1 can be used instead of CL.
8086
Compare of unsigned numbers
• Compare Instructions
▪ CMP (Compare) Instruction
Format: CMP dest, source ; compare dest and source
• The operands themselves remain unchanged.

• The dest operand can be in register or memory. The source operand can be in register,
memory or an immediate number.
• CMP instruction compares two operands and changes the flags accordingly.
• Although CF,AF,SF,PF,ZF and OF flags reflect the result of the comparison, only the CF and ZF
are affected.
Flag settings of the CMP instruction. Ex: DATA1 DW 235FH

Compare operands CF ZF …
Destination >source 0 0 MOV AX,CCCCH
Destination = source 0 1
CMP AX,DATA1;compare CCCC with 235F
Destination < source 1 0
JNC OVER ;jump if CF=0
SUB AX,AX
OVER: INC DATA1

BCD and ASCII Numbers
• BCD(Binary Coded Decimal) and ASCII (American Standard Code for Information
Interchange) Instructions
• Binary representation of 0 to 9 (used by human beings) is called BCD. There are two
types of BCD numbers,
(1) unpacked BCD (2) packed BCD
• Unpacked BCD: 1 byte is used to store 4 bit BCD code. E.g. 0000 1001 is unpacked BCD
for 9.
• Packed BCD: 1 byte is used to store two 4 bit BCD codes. E.g. 0101 1001 is packed BCD
for 59. More efficient in storing data. ASCII Numbers
BCD Digits Key ASCII(Hex) Binary BCD (Unpacked)
Digit BCD 0 30 011 0000 0000 0000

• ASCII to BCD Conversion
▪ ASCII to Unpacked BCD Conversion
➢ In order to convert ASCII to BCD the programmer must get rid of tagged “011” in
the higher four bits of the ASCII.
➢ To do that each ASCII number is ANDed with ‘0000 1111’ (0FH).
Ex: :
ASC DB ‘9562481273’
ORG 0010H
UNPACK DB 10 DUP(?)
:
MOV CX,5 ;CX is the loop counter
MOV BX,OFFSET ASC ;BX points to ASCII data
MOV DI,OFFSET UNPACK ;DI points to unpacked BCD data
AGAIN: MOV AX,WORD PTR [BX] ;move next 2 ASCII numbers to AX
AND AX,0F0FH ;remove ASCII 3s (011)
MOV WORD PTR [DI],AX ;store unpacked BCD
ADD DI,2 ;point to next unpacked BCD data
ADD BX,2 ;point to next ASCII data
LOOP AGAIN
8086
• ASCII to BCD Conversion
▪ ASCII to Packed BCD Conversion
➢ To convert ASCII to packed BCD, it is first converted to unpacked BCD (to get rid of
the 3) and then combined to make packed BCD.
Key ASCII Unpacked BCD Packed BCD
4 34 00000100
7 37 00000111 01000111 or 47
Ex: :
ORG 0010H
VAL_ASC DB ‘47’
VAL_BCD DB ?
:
;note that DB will put 34 in offset 0010H and 37 in 0011H.
MOV AX,WORD PTR VAL_ASC ;AH=37 AL=34
AND AX,0F0FH ;mask 3 to get unpacked BCD
XCHG AH,AL ;swap AH and AL
MOV CL,4 ;CL=04 to shift 4 times
SHL AH,CL ;shift left AH to get AH=40H
OR AL,AH ;OR them to get packed BCD
MOV VAL_BCD,AL ;save the result

• BCD to ASCII Conversion
• Packed BCD to ASCII Conversion
➢ To convert packed BCD to ASCII, it must be first converted to unpacked and then
the unpacked BCD is tagged with 011 0000 (30H).

Ex: :

VAL3_ASC DW ?
:
MOV AL,VAL1_BCD
MOV AH,AL ;copy AL to AH. Now AH=29 and AL=29
AND AX,F00FH ;mask 9 from AH and 2 from AL
MOV CL,04 ;CL=04 for shift
SHR AH,CL ;shift right AH to get unpacked BCD
OR AX,3030H ;combine with 30 to get ASCII
XCHG AH,AL ;swap for ASCII storage convention
MOV VAL3_ASC,AX ;store the ASCII
