The XCHG instuction takes 6 states to execute.
Summary − So this instruction XCHG requires 1-Byte, 4-Machine Cycles (Opcode Fetch) and 4 T-States for execution as shown in the timing diagram.
xchg- Exchange contents of specified destination and source operands. eg. XCHG AL, CL Exchange contents of Al with CL XCHG BP, SI Exchange contents of BP with SI xlat- It is a translate instruction used for code conversion using look up table technique
The 'XCHG' instruction in assembly language is used to exchange the values of two operands, typically a register and a memory location, effectively performing a swap without needing a temporary variable. It is significant for implementing atomic operations in multi-threaded programming. The 'SPHL' instruction, specific to certain assembly languages like 8085, is used to load the stack pointer (SP) with the address contained in the HL register pair, which is crucial for managing the stack in subroutine calls and local variable storage. Both instructions are fundamental for efficient low-level programming and system control.

The NOP instruction is a no-operation instruction. It does nothing to the state of the machine, except to use some time. In the case of the 8085, it uses four clock cycles plus however many wait states are need to access the NOP instruction from memory.
For calculating the T states of the any instruction ,you should know how many machine cycles does the instruction contains and the number of T states in each of the machine cyclesfor example,In a 8085 microprocessor set ,the instr. JMP contains three machine cyclesopcode fetch which is of 4T or 6T statesmemory read which is of 3T statesanother memory read which is again of 3T statesTherefore , the instr. JMP has a total of 10T states
There is one instruction set in the IA-32. Instruction set is the set of instruction that a processor can execute.
There are 10 phonemes in the word "instruction."
INX H instruction requires 1 machine cycle having 6 T-states because 8-bit instruction operate on 16 bit data (HL) completed in 6 T-states.
RET instruction needs 3 machine cycles. One to fetch and decode the instruction(4 T states), and two more machine cycles(i.e. 2*3=6 T states) to read two bytes from the stack(stack is exterior to microprocessor, stack is in R/W memory, so to exchange data with stack needs machine cycles). Thus, RET instruction needs total 3 machine cycles and 10 T-states.
There is no STAX for HL register pair because the data transfer for STAX can be done through XCHG command. For ex: to transfer the data to the memory loaction specified by the HL pair we do as follows: XCHG STAX D for DE pair and BC pair we can directly do it using STAX
