I/O INSTRUCTIONSI/O INSTRUCTIONS
Both IN & OUT instructions transfer data Both IN & OUT instructions transfer data between I/O device & microprocessor’s between I/O device & microprocessor’s accumulator (AL, AX or EAX).accumulator (AL, AX or EAX).
Instructions INS and OUTS, which are Instructions INS and OUTS, which are available on all versions, except available on all versions, except 8086/8088 are used to transfers STRINGS 8086/8088 are used to transfers STRINGS of data between the memory & I/O Device.of data between the memory & I/O Device.
All data transfer takes pace between I/O All data transfer takes pace between I/O devices & AL or AX register. For this devices & AL or AX register. For this reason, this method of performing I/O is reason, this method of performing I/O is know as ACCUMULATOR I/O.know as ACCUMULATOR I/O.
Byte transfers involve the AL register and word Byte transfers involve the AL register and word transfers involve AX register.transfers involve AX register.
Since 16 address line (A0-A15) are used to address Since 16 address line (A0-A15) are used to address I/O ports, the I/O address space consists of 64K I/O ports, the I/O address space consists of 64K word-wide I/O ports.word-wide I/O ports.
In In Direct I/O Direct I/O instruction, the address of the I/O port is instruction, the address of the I/O port is specified at port of the instruction. 8-bits are specified at port of the instruction. 8-bits are provided for provided for Direct addressDirect address. For this reason its value . For this reason its value is limited to 0000H to 00FFH.is limited to 0000H to 00FFH.
