Fall 2018/19 - Lecture Notes # 8: - Unsigned Addition and Subtraction - Addition of Multiword Numbers

This document discusses unsigned addition and subtraction in microprocessors. It covers adding unsigned numbers, addition with carry (ADC), and adding multi-byte and multi-word numbers. Examples are provided to add individual bytes and words of data, as well as a full program to add two multi-word numbers by iterating through each word.

Unsigned Addition and Subtraction
• Unsigned Addition
▪ Unsigned numbers are defined as data in which all the bits are used to represent data
and no bits are set aside for the positive and negative sign.
❖ For 8-bit, data operand can be between 00H and FFH (0 to 255 decimal)
❖ For 16-bit, data operand can be between 0000H and FFFFH ( 0 to 65535 decimal)

•ADD: Addition of unsigned numbers

Format: ADD dest, source ;dest = dest + source

Ex: Show how the flag register is affected by the following addition
MOV AL,0F5H
ADD AL,0BH

Solution: F5 1111 0101


+ 0B + 0000 1011
100H 0000 0000
After the addition AL will contain 00 and the flags are as follows. PF = 1
CF = 1 since there is a carry out from d7 AF = 1
SF = 0 the status of d7 of the result ZF = 1

Unsigned Addition and Subtraction
• Unsigned Addition
•ADC: Add with carry

Format: ADC dest, source ;dest = dest + source + CF

If CF=1 prior to this instruction, then after execution of this instruction, source is added to
destination plus 1. If CF=0, source is added to destination plus 0. Used widely in multibyte and
multiword additions.

• Addition of individual byte data

Ex: Write a program to calculate the total sum of 5 bytes of data. Each byte represents the daily
wages of a worker. This person does not make more than $255 (FFH) a day. The decimal data is
as follows: 125, 235, 197, 91, and 48.

Note that these numbers are converted to hex by the assembler as follows: 125=7DH, 235=EBH, 197=C5H, 91=5BH,
48=30H.

In the above program following lines of the program can be replaced with an
alternative coding as follows.

Replace these lines with these lines

Unsigned Addition and Subtraction
• Unsigned Addition
• Addition of individual word data
Ex: Write a program to calculate the total sum of 5 words of data. Each data value
represents the yearly wages of a worker. This person does not make more than $65535
(FFFFH) a year. The decimal data is as follows: 27345, 28521, 29533, 30105, and 32375.

Classwork: Repeat the previous program for the addition of the five word given above.

• Addition of multiword numbers


Ex: Write a program that adds the following two multiword numbers and saves the result:
DATA1 = 548FB9963CE7H and DATA2 = 3FCD4FA23B8DH

Analysis: 548FB9963CE7H
+ 3FCD4FA23B8DH
944D08387874H
Use ADC to add the two numbers word by word. You can also use byte by byte addition.

Note: LOOP BACK ;is the equivalent of the following two instructions
