Interrupt structure of 8086 | Interrupts in 8086
In this post, we will build our concepts on the Interrupt structure of 8086 and discuss various aspects of 8086 interrupts. We will see how many interrupts are there in 8086. And, we will also learn the names of 8086 interrupts. As we must know the types of interrupts in 8086 we have included that […]
Is assembly language the same thing as machine language?
While the two terms, assembly language and machine language, are often used interchangeably, assembly language is a more “user-friendly” interpretation of machine language. Machine language is the collection of patterns of bits recognized by a central processing unit (CPU) as instructions. Each particular CPU design has its own machine language. The machine language of the […]
Square of a number using a look-up table (assembly language program)
Problem statement: Write down an assembly language program to find the square of the numbers stored as an array starting at memory location C100H. Store the result as an array starting at memory location C200H. Assume that there are five numbers in the array. Solution: how to solve The following program uses the look-up table […]

8086 Microprocessor Architecture – class notes with pdf download
Before we start our lessons in 8086 microprocessor architecture, let’s quickly talk about what is new in it. In case of 8085 microprocessor, the processor first fetches the instruction byte from memory. Then the instruction decoder decodes it. Finally, the microprocessor performs a particular task according to the instruction. So the sequence of operation is as […]
