  1. Computer Organization & Assembly Language University of Sargodha, Lahore Campus Prepared by Ali Saeed

  2. EQU Statment • This statement is use to declare constant in assembly language • Name EQU constant • LF EQU 0AH • We can use LF any where in the code instead of OAH • E.gMov AH, LF

  3. Arrays in Assembly Language • In assembly array is just a sequence of memory bytes or words • For example to define three bytes array B_array with initial values 10H, 20H, 30H we can write • B_array DB 10H, 20H, 30H • B_array is associated with first address B_array+1 with second and B_array+2 with third element

  4. Arrays in Assembly Language • In the same way we can define word • W_array DW 1000, 40, 2020, 100 • Initial word is associated with W_array, Next is associated with W_array+2, then W_array+4 then W_array+6

  5. Arrays in Assembly Language • High and Low Byte of the word • Sometime we need to refer High and Low bytes of the word like • Word1 DW 1234H • Low byte contain 34H • High byte contain 12H • Low byte have address Word1, and High byte have address Word1+1

  6. Arrays in Assembly Language • Character String • Array of ASCII codes can be initialized with a string of characters like: • Letter DB ‘ABC’ • Is equivalent to • Letter DB 41H, 42H, 43H • Is equivalent to • Letter DB 65, 66, 67

  7. Arrays in Assembly Language • It is also possible to combine character and number in one defination • MSG DB ‘HELLO’,0AH, 0DH, ‘$’ • Is equivalent to • MSG DB 48h, 45h, 4Ch, 4Ch, 4Fh, 0Ah, 0Dh, 24h

  8. Arrays in Assembly Language • MONTHS DW 12 • MONTHS DW 0CH • MONTHS DW 0110B ;Declare 6 Bytes Array • bytes  DB 10 DUP(?) ; Declare 10 uninitialized bytes starting at location bytes. • Arr DD 100 DUP(0) ; Declare 100 4-byte words starting at location arr, all initialized to 0

  9. Array in Assembly Language • my_arr db 5, 2, 8, 9, 1, 7, 3, 0, 4, 6 • To load the first element of the array into register al is like this: • mov al, [my_arr] • Accessing the second, the third, and the forth element is like this: • mov al, [my_arr+1] • movbl, [my_arr+2] • Mov [my_arr+3], cl

  10. Translation of High level language to Assembly Language • Usually High level language instructions are first transferred into Assembly statements and than to machine language • By using MOV, ADD, SUB, INC, DEC, and NEG we will transfer some High level instructions • E.g. • B=A MOV AX,A • MOV B, AX

  11. Examples • A=5-A MOV AX, 5 • SUB AX, A • MOV A, AX • OR NEG A • ADD A,5 • Student Exercise : A=B-2xA

  12. Examples • A=B-2xA • Mov AX,B • Sub AX,A • Sub AX,A • MovA,AX

  13. Program Structure • Machine Language programs consist of code, data and stack segment • Each part occupies memory segment • Each segment is translated into memory segment by Assembler

  14. Memory Segment • .Model • Small(Code in One Segment, Data in One Segment) • Medium(Code in more than One Segment, Data in One Segment) • Compact(Code in One Segment, Data in more than One Segment) • Large(Code in more than One Segment, Data in more than One Segment, No array is more than 64K) • Huge(Code in more than One Segment, Data in more than One Segment, Array may be more than 64K)

  15. Data Segment • .Data • Data Segment contain all variable definitions • Constant definition are often made here • Constant can also declare else where in the program • Word1 DW 2 • Word2 DW 5 • MSG DB ‘This is Message’ • Mask EQU 10010010 B

  16. Stack Segment • Stack Segment is use to declare stack area in the memory • Stack area should be big enough to contain the stack at maximum size • .Stack size • Stack size is optional if not declared it 1K is set for stack area • Stack 100H • Stack 200H

  17. Code Segment • The code segment contain the program instructions • The declaration syntax is • .Code name • Name is optional, there is no need to write name in small program • Inside the code segment instruction are organized in procedure

  18. Code Segment • Simplest procedure definition is • Name PROC • ; body of procedure • Name ENDP • .code • MAIN PROC • ; main procedure instructions • MAIN ENDP • ; other procedure go here

  19. Example Program • .model small • .stack 100h • .data • .code • main proc • mov ax, @data • movds,ax • mov ah,01 • int 21h • movdl,'x' • mov ah,2 • int 21h • main endp • end main
