Course detail - Topics Write a program in assembly language Understanding of a PC-based system Fundamentals of assembly language & program Specific Applications
What does it take to success • Attend the class regularly and actively participate • in the class discussion (ask questions, answer • questions, etc..) • Don’t give up on programming assignments. • Pay attention to detail • Try many options when doing programming • assignments
Basic features of PC Hardware • Binary and Hexadecimal Number Systems • Bits/bytes • Binary number systems • Hexadecimal • ASCII • PC Components • Processor • Memory
Bits/bytes and Binary system • Bits: 0(off) & 1(on) • Bytes: • Represents a storage location in memory and devices. • 8 bits => 28 combination of 0/1.
Bits/bytes and Binary system Address 40 Husky Road Storrs, CT 06329 00000100 00000000 Word Doubleword Quadword Paragraph Kilobyte Megabyte
Bits/bytes and Binary system Bit value Position value Bit number 0+0=0 1+1=10 1+0=1 01010101 10101010 Add 1 10101011 Operations Negative binary numbers 2’s complement’s notation Reverse the bit values and add 1
1. What is the value of 01010101? 2. How to represent -25 in 2’s complement notation?
Bits/bytes and Binary system Bit value Position value Bit number Parity bit: forcing the number of bits always odd Example: 01010101 Parity bit = 1 00010101 Parity bit = 0
Hexadecimal presentation • Disadvantage of binary representation: • Is not “user-friendly” • Complicated when computing manually • Hexadecimal representation
Hexadecimal presentation Hexadecimal arithmetic 7+1=8 7+2=9 7+3=A 7+4=B 7+8=F 7+9=?
Practice • Convert from decimal to hexadecimal 23 = ???? 254 = ???? • Adding hexadecimal value 13B4H + 0033H = ???? DCBEH + 35B5H = ????
Popular coding systems to represent data • ASCII—American Standard Code for Information Interchange • EBCDIC—Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code • Unicode—coding scheme capable of representing all world’s languages
Step 1.The user presses the capital letter D (shift+D key) on the keyboard. Step 4.After processing, the binary code for the capital letter D is converted to an image, and displayed on the output device. Conversion from letter to binary format and back Step 2.An electronic signal for the capital letter D is sent to the system unit. Step 3.The signal for the capital letter D is converted to its ASCII binary code (01000100) and is stored in memory for processing.

PC Components • What are two main components on the motherboard? • Central Processing Unit (CPU) • Also called a processor • Carries out instructions that tell computer what to do • Memory • Temporary holding place for data and instructions
Processor Control Unit Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) Control Unit Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) InstructionsDataInformation InstructionsDataInformation Memory InputDevices OutputDevices Data Information StorageDevices Central processing unit (CPU) (Processor) • Interprets and carries out basic instructions that operate a computer • Control unit directs and coordinates operations in computer • Arithmetic logic unit (ALU) performs arithmetic, comparison, and logical operations
Operating system Data Memory • Temporary storage place for data, instructions, and information • Consists of one or more chips on the motherboard or some other circuit board Applications • Three basic items stored in memory
Memory • Size of memory is measured by the number of bytes available • Kilobyte - 1,024 bytes • Megabyte – approximate one million bytes
Volatile Memory Loses its contents when the computer's power is turned off volatile memory Loses its contents when the computer's power is turned off nonvolatile memory Does not lose its contents when the computer’s power is turned off Memory What are the two types of memory in the system unit?
Memory chips that can be read from and written to by the processor and other devices When the computer starts, operating system files are loaded from a hard disk into RAM As additional programs and data are requested, they also load from storage into RAM Most RAM is volatile Memory What is random access memory (RAM)?
Addressing data in Memory • Difference between address of a memory • Location and its content • Processor stores the data in memory in • reverse by sequence • Two types of addressing schemes • absolute address • segment-offset address
Segment • Code segment (CS) • Data segment (DS) • Stack segment (SS) • Extra segment (ES) • Actual address = segment address + offset
Registers • Segment register • CS,DS,SS,ES, FS and GS • Pointer register • IP,SP,BP • General purpose register • AX,BX,CX,DX • Index register • SI, DI
