On a typical microprocessor, a distinct I/O address is used to refer to the I/O data registers and a distinct address for the control and status registers in an I/O controller for a given device. Such registers are referred to as ports. In the Intel 8088, two I/O instruction formats are used. In one format, the 8-bit opcode specifies an I/O operation; this is followed by an 8- bit port address. Other I/O opcodes imply that the port address is in the 16-bit DX register. How many ports can the 8088 address in each I/O addressing mode?
Solution
Before going to solution
It is mentioned in the question 8088
therefore in 8088 machines there are 2 types of I/O instruction formats are available
1st Instruction format
2nd instruction format
Lets see one by one
Number of ports for the 1st instruction format
No.of Bits used for the purpose of port addressing-8bits
8 bits means the no.of ports addressed is
=28
=256 ports
it will allow 128 devices to be addressed the reason is that opcode either allow input or output function at a time but not both thats why it is possible to reuse this addresses
Therefore
256 input port addresses
256 output port addresses
so
No.of ports the 1st instruction format can addres up to 256 ports
---
Number of ports for 2nd instruction format
No.of bits used for port addressing is 16 bits
with 8 bits no.of ports can be addressed
216=26*210
=64 K
(210 means 1K)
so
No.of ports 2nd instruction format can address upt to 64K ports

all the best

Write an assembly intel 8088 16 bit code MASM,(The 8088 includes has four 16-bit data registers (AX, BX, CX and DX). BX can also be used as an address register for indirect addressing. The most/least significant byte of each register can also be addressed directly) using push, pop, and stack print the array 8,9,10,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 please provide the full assembly code.
Suppose a computer has 20-bit instructions. The instruction set consists of 32 different operations. All instructions have an opcode and two address fields (allowing for two addresses). The frst of these addresses must be a register, and the second must be memory. Expanding opcodes are not used. The machine has 16 registers.

The hypothetical machine of Figure 3.4 has two I/O instructions: 0011 = Load AC from I/O 0111 = Store AC to I/O In these cases, the 12-bit address identifies a particular I/O device. Show the program execution (using the format of Figure 3.5) for the following program: 1. Load AC from device 5. 2. Add contents of memory location 940. 3. Store AC to device 6. Assume that the next value retrieved from device 5 is 3 and that location...

1.) a.) Using the simplified instruction set shown for part b, write code for the following. Suppose memory locations 1400 to 1449 contain 16-bit words. Each word represents 2 ASCII characters. Write code to read in and write out these 100 characters. Left-side character from location 1400 should be first, right-side character from location 1400 should be second, and remaining characters follow in numeric order. Assume you have access to 4 registers: R1, R2, R3, R4. Each register holds one...
