String Processing?
A bit (more powerful than 8088) instruction that can process blocks of data in one go. They are called block processing or String instructions.
Block of memory which is a video memory?
The vision of this memory for the processor is just a block of memory starting at a special address.
The five instructions are:
1- STOS : store string
2- LODS: load string
3- CMPS: compare string
4- SCAS: scan string
5- MOVS: move string
String instructions are —- instructions. They perform a number of tasks against one instructions.
Complex
REPE, REPNE full forms?
REPE: Repeat while equeal
REPNE: Repeat while not equal
MOVS is used to?
Move block of memory
DF is important in the case of?
Overlapping blocks
Interrupts in reality are —-. That occurs outside the processor and the processor must be informed about them.
Events
Interrupts are —- and —–?
Asynchronous and unpredictable
The 8088 processor divides interrupts into —- classes.
Two classes
1- Software interrupt
2- Hardware interrupt
