when conditional jump instruction is executed it has 10 m/c cycles bt when nt executed it has 7 m/c cycles....while unconditional jump instruction has 10 m/c cycles...
In 8086 the instruction queue is 6 byte long. This is because even the longest 8086 instruction is 6 byte long. Thus it is possible to prefetch even the longest instruction in the instruction set.
JUMP RET CALL RETI RETN RETF These are unconditional branch instructions By, Satish G.Patil
When a branch (or "jump") instruction is executed, the condition codes bits (in the flag register) determine whether or not the Program Counter (PC register) is changed to the Effective Address specified by the instruction; if not, then the PC is unchanged.
IRET
The Instruction Pointer (IP) in an 8086 microprocessor contains the address of the next instruction to be executed. The processor uses IP to request memory data from the Bus Interface Unit, and then increments it by the size of the instruction.
6 bytes
6 bytes
in 8086, there is instruction queue of 6 byte. It is one of the reason behind giving name. 8086 was introducing pipeline architecture.
Yes.
mov
There is no PC register in the 8086/8088. It is called the IP register by Intel and it stands for the Instruction Pointer. It contains the address of the current/next instruction to be executed.
