In the 8086 microprocessor, the location counter is a register that keeps track of the address of the next instruction or data to be fetched or executed in memory. It is part of the instruction queue mechanism, helping to facilitate the pipelining of instruction processing. As instructions are fetched, the location counter increments to point to the subsequent memory address, ensuring efficient execution flow. This mechanism allows the 8086 to prefetch instructions to improve overall performance.

Purpose of program counter in a microprocessor is?
In 8085 program counter stores the address of the next instruction which is to be fecthed.same function is performed by instruction pointer in 8086.
How many bit data can be stored in one memory location of 8086 microprocessor?
8
Main difference between 8085 and 8086?
The most significant difference between the Intel 8085 and 8086 microprocessors is that the 8085 is an 8-bit system and the 8086 is a 16-bit system. This difference allows the 8086 system to have a much larger set of operational instructions and can make calculations to more significant places. Note: the 8085 processor does have two 16-bit registers. The pointer and the program counter.
What is LOCCTR?

Why are programme counter and stack pointer register 16 bit registers?
The program counter (PC) and stack pointer (SP) registers are 16-bit registers in the 8085 and in the 8086/8088 because that is how Intel designed the processors.
Which IC is used as clock generator in 8086?
The 8086 Microprocessor operate to require frequency that is provided by clock generator to 8086 Microprocessor and also Synchronization various component of 8086.
What are applications of 8086 microprocessor?
8086 main application is to evaluate the arithmetic operations in any systems that uses 8086
Could you write a assembly language program in tasm To check whether a given number present in a sequence of given memory location containing the string to be checked in 8086?
8086 assembly language program to check wether given number is perfect or not
What is the difference between the instruction location counter and the program counter?
The Instruction Location Counter is a variable inside of the assembler. While the Program Counter is a register. The PC solely keeps track of the next instruction in a program, ILC increments by each instruction's operand length.
Which is better in 8086 and 8051?
If you mean greater (more) 8086.
Which register in 8086 contains the address of the next instruction to be fetched?
program counter holds the address of the next instruction.
What is the maximum and minimum signed number that can be stored in a memory location in the 8086 processor?
The 8086/8088 processor is a 16 bit processor. In a 16 bit two's complement notation, the maximum number is 0x7FFF, or 32767, while the minimum number is 0x8000, or -32768.
