Question

Suppose you have an Intel 8086, and you're utilizing the segmented memory model. Find the five-digit hex address for the following segment-offset pair.

1B3D:1234

Answer 1

Solution:------------
The five-digit hex address for the following segment-offset pair.
1B3D:1234

Absolute Memory Location (five-digit hex address) = (Segment value * 16) + Offset value

The Absolute or Linear address ( five-digit hex address ) for the Segment: Offset pair, 1B3D:1234 can be computed quite easily in your mind by simply inserting a zero at the end of the Segment value ( which is the same as multiplying by 16 ) and then adding the Offset value:

1 B 3 D 0
+ 1 2 3 4

1 C 6 0 4 ==> Answer.
