different architecture.
The 8086 microprocessor supports several data addressing modes, including immediate, direct, indirect, indexed, and based addressing modes. In immediate addressing, the operand is specified directly in the instruction. Direct addressing involves providing the memory address of the operand. Indirect addressing uses a pointer in a register to reference the operand's memory location, while indexed addressing combines a base address with an offset from an index register. Additionally, based addressing uses a base register to locate the operand in memory.
there are five addressing modes in 8086 they are : 1->direct addressing 2->Indirect addressing 3->index addressing 4->immediate addressing 5->register addressing
The addressing modes in the 8086 microprocessor provide flexibility in accessing data by allowing various ways to specify the operands for instructions. This enables programmers to efficiently use memory by accessing data directly, indirectly, or using offsets, which can simplify code and reduce the number of instructions needed. Additionally, different addressing modes facilitate the manipulation of data structures, such as arrays and records, enhancing the overall versatility and power of the microprocessor.
indexed addressing
minimum mode and maximum mode
In the 8086 microprocessor, the maximum length of an instruction is 6 bytes. This includes the opcode, any necessary prefixes, and operands. The architecture allows for complex addressing modes, which can contribute to the instruction length, but the limit remains at 6 bytes for any single instruction.
*minimum mode *maximum mde
addressing modes helps the programmer to store or retrieve the data which is stored in any part of the data memory by addressing mode specified in the program.
addressing mode is used to form an instruction format.
i.e.-->mov ax,2000h (in 8086)
Its 16bit microprocessor,and-> the 8086 has a 16bit databus 20bit address bus-> the intel 8086,is designed to operate in two modes namely(1) minimum mode(2) maximum mode
