What is the function of program counter?

program counter is a register that has the address of next instruction that has to be executed after currently executing instruction. it is used for proper execution of functions of computer by providing address of next instruction to microprocessor.


What is the addressing mode of the instruction PCHL in 8085 microprocessor?

It is register addressing mode, as it moves the content of HL to PC which is data and not address.


What is the purpose of DI register in microprocessor in 8086?

DI is the Index register in Data segment(16-bit, 64 KB) .Destination Index (DI) is a 16-bit register. DI is used for indexed, based indexed and register indirect addressing, as well as a destination data address in string manipulation instructions.


What is an address bus in a microprocessor?

The address bus is a section of the bus that emits the address of the desired instruction or operand.


What is the function of the program counter register?

The function of the program counter register is to hold the address of the instruction that is being executed and (later) to hold the address of the instruction that will be executed next.


What is the need of Instruction PointerIP in 8086 microprocessor?

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.

Why call instruction in 8085 microprocessor have 18 state and how its operate?

The CALL InstructionOpcode OperandCALL 16-bit memory addressof a subroutineIt is a 3-byte instruction that transfers the program sequence to a subroutineSaves the content of the PC (Program Counter-16-bit register) , the address of the next instruction , on the stackDecrements the stack pointer register by 2Jumps unconditionally to the memory location specified by the 2nd and 3rd bytes.This instruction is accompanied by a RETURN instruction in the subroutine


Why all the 16 address lines are not act as a data lines in 8085 microprocessor?

the 8085 microprocessor is a 8-bit microprocessor and these are bidirectional but the address lines are unidirectional.these address lines are used to address the location of the instruction in memory .these data lines are used to transfer data between processor and peripheral devices. when the address of the instruction will be recognized by the address lines the data will be send to the processor therefore the 16 address lines are not act as a data lines in 8085
