Flags in a microprocessor are special bits in a status register that indicate the state of the processor or the outcome of operations. They reflect conditions such as zero, carry, overflow, and sign, which help control the flow of programs and decision-making in execution. For example, if an arithmetic operation results in zero, the zero flag is set, influencing subsequent conditional instructions. These flags enable efficient handling of branching and looping, allowing the CPU to react dynamically to different computational scenarios.

Flags are kind of register that record the condition of a microprocessor's calculation process.
A loop in a microprocessor, like any loop in any programming language, is a series of instructions that is executed repeatedly until some condition is satisfied. An example of a delay loop in the 8085 might be... . PUSH FLAGS . XRA A L INR A . JNZ L . POP FLAGS This piece of code, with a 1 MHz clock, will take about 4.6 mS to execute, and it will save and restore the accumulator and flags.

It would be easier if you contacted the manufacturers of microprocessor so they and you could work out which microprocessor you want. There are hundreds of microprocessors to pick from and any companies who design, develop, and build microprocessors

The 8086 microprocessor has several types of flags, categorized into two main groups: status flags and control flags. Status flags include the Zero Flag (ZF), Sign Flag (SF), Parity Flag (PF), Carry Flag (CF), and Overflow Flag (OF), which indicate the outcome of arithmetic and logical operations. Control flags include the Direction Flag (DF), which determines the direction of string operations, and the Interrupt Flag (IF), which enables or disables interrupts. Additionally, there is a Trap Flag (TF) used for single-step debugging.
The NOP instruction is short for no-operation. It is an executable instruction that does nothing to the processor, its registers, or its flags. It is useful in timing loops, or to provide room for patchabilty of a piece of code.
RET pops the PC off of the stack, while IRET pops both the flags and the PC off of the stack.
