Practical 2
Aim: Application of data transfer instructions to develop relevant programs.
a) Write a program to copy content of register B to register C
b) Develop a program that load the accumulator with the content of memory location
pointed by DE pair and store it at 3000H.
c) Create a program that transfer data from memory location 2050H to register D.
d) Create a program that load the accumulator with the content of memory location
2050H using LDA and then store it at 3000H.Also move the content to register B.
e) Program to place content of 2001H in register C and 82H in register B and add both of
them.After adding transfer content of accumulator to register D.
Hardware Requirements: 8085 Microprocessor, Power Supply to provide the necessary
voltage and current to the components.
Introduction to data transfer group : A "data transfer group" in assembly language
consists of instructions designed to transfer data from source to destination without altering
the content of source.Some of the data transfer instructions are as follows:
MOV - Move
• Syntax: MOV destination, source
• This instruction copies the contents of the source operand (register/memory) into the
destination operand (register). It is used to transfer data between registers or between a
register and memory.
MVI - Move Immediate:
• Syntax: MVI destination, data
• Moves an immediate 8-bit data value directly into the specified register or memory
location. It is used to load immediate data into registers or memory.
LDA - Load Accumulator Directly from Memory:
• Syntax: LDA memory_address
• Loads the accumulator register with the 8-bit data stored at the specified memory
address. Used to fetch data from memory into the accumulator.
STA - Store Accumulator Directly in Memory:
• Syntax: STA memory_address
• Stores the content of the accumulator into the memory location specified by the memory
address. Used to store data from the accumulator into memory.
LHLD - Load HL Pair Directly from Memory:
• Syntax: LHLD memory_address

Teacher’s signature………… 1|Page

Microprocessors CS 354 CO22329

• Loads the H and L registers with a 16-bit value stored at the specified memory address.
It transfers a pair of registers from memory into the H and L registers.
SHLD - Store HL Pair Directly in Memory:
• Syntax: SHLD memory_address
• Stores the content of the H and L registers into memory at the specified address. It
transfers a pair of registers from the H and L registers to memory.
LXI - Load Register Pair with Immediate data:
• Syntax: LXI register_pair, data
• Loads a 16-bit immediate value into the specified register pair. Common register pairs
are BC, DE, HL.
LDAX - Load Accumulator from Address in Register Pair:
• Syntax: LDAX register_pair
• Loads the accumulator with the 8-bit data from the memory location addressed by the
specified register pair. Used for indirect memory access.
STAX - Store Accumulator in Address in Register Pair:
• Syntax: STAX register_pair
• Stores the content of the accumulator into the memory location addressed by the
specified register pair. Used for indirect memory storage.
XCHG - Exchange HL register pair with DE register pair :
• Syntax: XCHG
• Swaps the content of the HL register pair with DE register pair.

A. Procedure for program to copy content of register B to register C :

▪ Register used : B,C
▪ Flag affected: No flag affected
▪ Initial Memory location :2021H

Press RESET button .

Then REL EXMEM and enter the data at memory

location which we have used in LXI instruction i.e
2001H.

Press MEMC NEXT .

Enter initial address of your program (i.e from

where you write your first instruction).
Press MEMC NEXT.
Fig(E.xiii) shows input of initial memory location.

After pressing MEMC NEXT the program will get

executed successfully and microprocessor kit

Press RESET button.

After that press SHIFT and then EXREG to

examine the value of different registers.
Enter D as we want to check the value of register
D.The result will be displayed on 7 segment display
as shown in fig(E.xiv).

Procedure for the same program on simulator:

1. First click on tools then go to assembler after that editor window will open type your
instructions here.The editor window will be shown in fig(E.a)

2. After typing instructions save your file and after saving go to tools and click on assemble
to assemble instructions or to check it for errors. Fig(E.b) shows input instructions with
zero error.

3. Close editor window and load program by clicking File and then go to load program
and select desired file.
4. Enter data at memory location 2001H as 01H.Memory editor will be shown in fig(E.c).

5. Click on rate and then check step by step option to execute the instructions step by
step.Then click on simulation and then on start to start execution of program and then
click on function key 2 to execute the next instructions as shown in fig(E.d) .

6. After successful completion of instructions when we see the value of register D it come
out to be 83H.Also Z,AC,P,CF flags get affected in this case.
Output:
The output of the program is that the value of register C equals to 01H which is same as that
of value at memory location 2001H and value of register B is 82H.After adding both their
result will be stored in register D (i.e 83 H)
Precautions:
1. Handle the kit carefully.
2. Press the Microprocessor kit keys properly.
3. Ensure the correct power supply voltage and polarity according to the trainer kit's
specifications.

Lesson Learnt: Through this experiment I have learned how to use data transfer instructions
set on microprocessor trainer kit as well as on the 8085 simulator. I learned about the
functionality of various instructions like MOV, LDA, STA, MVI, LXI and LDAX etc.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1 : What does LDA stand for?

Ans: Load Accumulator Direct.
