    Study Notes

    Data Transfer Instructions

    • Instructions are categorized into four main types: Data Transfer, Arithmetic, Logical, and Program Branching.
    • Key Data Transfer Instructions: MOV, MOVC, MOVX, PUSH, POP, XCH, and XCHD.

    Arithmetic Instructions

    • Arithmetic operations include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, increment, and decrement.
    • The operations do not differentiate between data formats like signed, unsigned, ASCII, or BCD.
    • Arithmetic operations affect flags: Carry (C), Overflow (OV), Zero (Z), etc., in the Program Status Word (PSW).
    • Mnemonics for Arithmetic Instructions: ADD, ADDC, SUBB, MUL, DIV, INC, DEC, DA A, CLR, CPL, RL, RLC, RR, RRC, SWAP.

    Logical Instructions

    • Perform logical operations: AND, OR, XOR.
    • Operations are executed on bytes of data, processed bit-by-bit.
    • Key Mnemonics: ANL, ORL, XRL.

    Boolean/Bit-Oriented Instructions

    • Focus on manipulating individual bits within variables.
    • Important for accessing bit-addressable areas in RAM and Special Function Registers (SFRs).
    • Key Mnemonics: CLR, SETB, CPL, MOV, ANL, ORL.

    Program Branching Instructions

    • Control the flow of program logic.
    • Essential instructions include: JMP, SJMP, AJMP, LJMP, RET, RETI, LCALL, ACALL, JZ, JNZ, JC, JNC, JB, JNB, JBC, CJNE, DJNZ, NOP.

    Arithmetic Flags

    • Flags are 1-bit registers that indicate the status of results from operations.
    • Four arithmetic flags are: Carry (C), Auxiliary Carry (AC), Overflow (OV), and Parity (P).
    • All flags are stored in the Program Status Word (PSW).

    Addressing Modes

    • Eight addressing modes available in the 8051: Immediate, Direct, Register, Register Indirect, Indexed.
    • Immediate Addressing Mode: Transfers 8-bit data directly to the accumulator. Syntax: MOV A, #data (e.g. MOV A, #6AH).
    • Direct Addressing Mode: Uses the address of the data as an operand. Example: MOV A, 04H retrieves data from register 04H of register bank #0.
