Registers in Microprocessors
•
Store elements close to ALU - 1 clock read/write access
•
Registers keep operands and intermediate results
•
Operations done on register operands are MUCH faster than those
done on memory operands (1-clock vs. 5+ (L1), 20+ (L2) or 50+ (Mem)
•
Registers also keep flags and signals. For example, in x86:
– C (Carry)
– O (Overflow)
– Z (Zero)
– T (Trap)
•
CDP
User (general-purpose) and System (restricted) registers
ECE 291 -- Spring 2000
Instructions
• Assembly or machine instructions have three components
– Operation code (Opcode): specifies what the instr. Does
– Operand specifiers: specify registers or memory holding operand(s)
– Destination specifier: specifies where in regs or memory to store result
– [Condition/interpretation fields: specify how to interpret operand data or
which fields to access]
• We use symbolic names to denote opcodes (ADD, SUB, CMP, …) as
well as operands (register specifiers as AX, SP, etc)
CDP
ECE 291 -- Spring 2000
Instructions
• Instructions operate on register, memory or constant operands
• Arithmetic instructions
– Integer & Floating point arithmetic instructions
– +, -, *, / (ADD, SUB, MUL, DIV)
• Logic & Shift instructions
– Shift left (SHL), Shift right (SHR)
– Rotate left (ROL), Rotate right (ROR)
CDP
ECE 291 -- Spring 2000
Instructions (Cont.)
• Memory instructions
– MOVE, LOAD, STORE
• Control flow instructions
– conditional/unconditional branches
– Loops
– Cases
– Subroutine calls
• Other (I/O, graphics, etc)
CDP
ECE 291 -- Spring 2000
80x86 Registers
• General Registers
– AX (AH,AL): Accumulator, Math operations, offset (General Purpose)
– BX (BH,BL): Offset, Address/Pointer
– CX(CH,CL): Counting & Looping
– DX(DH,DL): Data, Most Sig. bytes of a 16-bit MUL/DIV
• Index Registers
– SP: Stack pointer - Used by PUSH/POP Automatically!!
– BP: Mem. Base pointer + Stack operations: parameters of a subroutine
– SI: Source Index (arrays & strings)
– DI: Destination Index (arrays & strings)
CDP
ECE 291 -- Spring 2000
Registers (Cont.)
• Segment Registers: Point to different segments of memory that
store code, data, stack, etc. Segment regs combined with other
regs that provide offset can be used to compute memory
addresses.
– CS: Code Segment: Starting address of user code. Used with
Instruction Pointer (IP) to fetch instructions. Defines start of
64Kb code segment for <286, and up to 4Gb for >286.
– DS: Default (Data) Segment: Variables and user data structures
– SS: Stack Segment: Defines stack segment for subroutines & local
variables in procedures. SS + SP define stack entry point.
– ES: Extra Segment: Additional data segment for String
destination data
– FS & GS: Supplemental segment registers for additional segments
in 386 and above only.

EFLAG Register
• Flags are set by operations and are checked by instructions or
OS to detect specific events and take appropriate action.
• Rightmost 5 flags are set by ALU instructions:
– C: Carry of addition or subtraction (borrow)
– P: Parity (0 - odd, 1 - even)
– A: Auxiliary carry captures carry between bit positions 3 & 4 and
used for BCD arithmetic (used by DAA & DAS instructions)
– S: sign bit (0-positive, 1-negative) used by arithmetic & logic instr.
– Z: Zero - set (to 1) only when the result of an ALU op is zero!
– T: trap - if enabled (1) exec. of the program halts

– I: Interrupt - controls op of INTR input pin: if I=1 the interrupt pin is
enabled, otherwise disabled. Instructions STI (set I flag) and CLI (clear
I flag) access I.
– D: direction - increment/decrement mode for SI & DI for string ops. D is
set/cleared with STD & CLD instr.
– O: Overflow - overflow in signed mode arithmetic ops
– IOPL: I/O privilege level - 00 highest, 11 lowest
– NT: Nested task - current task nested within another in protected mode.
– RF: Resume - used in debug mode to resume exe after current inst.

Instruction Format
• ALL instructions have the following specifiers:
– OPCODE: a field that specifies the operation to be done
– OPERAND(S): one or more fields giving the operands or the location
where the operands can be found
– DESTINATION: a field that specifies the location (register or
memory) where the result of the operation is to be stored
– [Descriptor fields]: Special bit specifiers that allow for different
interpretation of the same field (e.g. register or offset specifier)
• ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS: symbolic (mnemonic) versions of
machine instructions
• MACHINE INSTR. Or BINARY CODE: Binary codes that give the
specific value for each of the above fields
• Assembly program ==> ASSEMBLER (MASM) ==> Machine code
CDP
ECE 291 -- Spring 2000
Instruction Format: x86
• In 80x86 instructions can vary in length from 8-bits (1b) to more
than 100-bits (13b)
• REAL MODE:
– Default instruction size is 16-bits
• 16-bit registers & 16-bit offset fields
• RPOTECTED MODE:
– Default instruction size is 32-bits (x386 and above)
• 32-bit registers & 32-bit offset fields
– D-bit in descriptor specifies real or protected mode:
• D=0: (real-mode) 16-bit instructions, register values and addresses
• D=1: (protected mode) 32-bit instructions, reg. values and addresses
