Preface
About the Manual: The lab manual was prepared during the term 982, and updated during the terms 991, 992 and 993. Some experiments have been added with respect to previous terms. The manual includes now 12 experiments. Each experiment is divided into two parts, a theoretical part that explains the theory required to carry out the experiment in a proper manner. The second part is practical; it consists of a set of programs that the student has to run to understand the functioning of the tools introduced in the first part. The student then modifies some of these programs to accomplish given tasks. Finally, the student has to write his own programs in order to show his understanding of the material given in each lab session. The first experiment is an introduction to the tools that will be used throughout the lab. Experiments 2 to 8 constitute an overall view of assembly language programming. Experiments 9 to 12 deal with video, interrupts, mouse and serial communications. Finally, a project is given at the end of the term. The experiments are organized as follows and are scheduled on a weekly basis. 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) 11) 12)

Experiment No 1 Introduction to Assembly Language Programming Introduction: The aim of this experiment is to introduce the student to assembly language programming, and the use of the tools that he will need throughout the lab experiments. This first experiment let the student use the DOS Debugger and the Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM). MASM related tools are introduced; these include the Programmer’s WorkBench (PWB) and CodeView (CV). Such tools are interactive means for writing linking, and debugging assembly language programs. Objectives: 12345-
Introduction to the Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM) General structure of an assembly language program Use of the Dos Debugger program Use of the PWB, and Code View (CV). Introducing Data representation in assembly
Overview: In general, programming of a microprocessor usually takes several iterations before the right sequence of machine code instructions is written. The process, however, is facilitated using a special program called an “Assembler”. The Assembler allows the user to write alphanumeric instructions, or mnemonics, called Assembly Language instructions. The Assembler, in turn, generates the desired machine instructions from the Assembly Language instructions. Assembly Language programming consists of the following steps:

Experiment No 1
COE 205 Lab Manual
Assembling the program: The assembler is used to convert the assembly language instructions to machine code. It is used immediately after writing the Assembly Language program. The assembler starts by checking the syntax, or validity of the structure, of each instruction in the source file. If any errors are found, the assembler displays a report on these errors along with a brief explanation of their nature. However, if the program does not contain any errors, the assembler produces an object file that has the same name as the original file but with the “obj” extension. Linking the program: The linker is used to convert the object file to an executable file. The executable file is the final set of machine code instructions that can directly be executed by the microprocessor. It is different than the object file in the sense that it is self-contained and re-locatable. An object file may represent one segment of a long program. This segment can not operate by itself, and must be integrated with other object files representing the rest of the program, in order to produce the final self-contained executable file. In addition to the executable file, the linker can also generate a special file called the “map” file. This file contains information about the start, end, and the length of the stack, code, and data segments. It also lists the entry point of the program. Executing the program The executable file contains the machine language code. It can be loaded in the RAM and be executed by the microprocessor simply by typing, from the DOS prompt, the name of the file followed by the Carriage Return Key (Enter Key). If the program produces an output on the screen, or a sequence of control signals to control a piece of hardware, the effect should be noticed almost immediately. However, if the program manipulates data in memory, nothing would seem to have happened as a result of executing the program. Debugging the program The Debugger can also be used to find logical errors in the program. Even if a program does not contain syntax errors it may not produce the desired results after execution. Logical errors may be found by tracing the action of the program. Once found, the source file should be reedited to fix the problem, then re-assembled and relinked. A special program called the “Debugger” is designed for that purpose. The debugger allows the user to trace the action of the program, by single stepping through the program or executing the program up to a desired point, called break point. It also allows the user to inspect or change the contents of the microprocessor internal registers or the contents of any memory location.

The DOS-Debugger: The DOS “Debug” program is an example of a simple debugger that comes with MSDOS. Hence, it is available on any PC. It was initially designed to give the user the capability to trace logical errors in executable files. It allows the user to take an existing executable file and unassemble it, i.e. convert it to assembly language. Also, it allows the user to write assembly language instructions directly, and then convert them to machine language. The program is simple and easy to use, but offers limited capabilities, which make it unsuitable for serious Assembly language programming. Below, are summarized the basic DOS-Debugger commands.
COMMAND Assemble Compare Dump Enter Fill Go Hex Input Load Move Name Output Proceed Quit Register Search Trace Unassemble Write
SYNTAX A [address] C range address D [range] E address [list] F range list G [=address] [addresses] H value1 value2 I port L [address] [drive] [first sector] [number] M range address N [pathname] [argument list] O port byte P [=address] [number] Q R [register] S range list T [=address] [value] U [range] W [address] [drive] [first sector] [number]
Table 1.2: Common DOS-Debug commands MS-MASM: Microsoft’s Macro Assembler (MASM) is an integrated software package written by Microsoft Corporation for professional software developers. It consists of an editor, an assembler, a linker and a debugger (CodeView). The programmer’s workbench combines these four parts into a user-friendly programming environment with built in on line help.

The following are the steps used if you are to run MASM from DOS.

COMMAND FILE NAME Edit, any editor will do Name.asm Masm Filename Name.obj Link Filename Name.exe Filename Note: Steps 2 and 3 may be done in one Name.asm and single command: ML filename.asm Name.obj Table 1.3: Assembly Language Programming Phases
MS-PWB: The PWB allows the user to define a project that may contain one or more files. Then, the user may select and save all the necessary assembling, linking, and debugging options for that project. Once these options are set, the user need not set them again for that project. The PWB allows the user to edit, assemble, run, or debug his program without leaving the PWB environment. It also allows the user to get help on any keyword by pointing to the keyword and pressing the F1 key. Notes on the use of MS-MASM: MASM may be run under DOS environment, or through PWB. Running MASM and CodeView Debugger from the MSDOS prompt: If you don't like the integrated PWB, you might run just the necessary programs from the MSDOS prompt. Here are the steps, assuming that your program is called "proj": 1. Open a DOS window. 2. Set the PATH so that the MASM programs are available The MASM programs are on the E drive; set the path so that DOS can find them. This only needs to be done once each time you open a MSDOS prompt. set PATH=%PATH%;E:\masm611\bin; E:\masm611\binr 3. Use a Text Editor to Edit the .ASM File Create your file using one of the following programs: notepad proj.asm wordpad proj.asm edit proj.asm Make sure it has a .ASM ending. Also, be sure you are doing your work on the A: drive, or on the D:\WORKAREA, and not in the C:\WINDOWS directory, or other drives. 4. Run the Compiler/Linker to generate an .EXE file from the .ASM file ml /Fl /Zi proj.asm

Make sure you use the two switches: /Fl creates a listing (.LST) file (the letter to the right of the F is a lower-case L); /Zi makes the finished product compatible with the CodeView debugger. You'll be notified of any errors with your program, and error statements should be placed in your .LST file (proj.lst in this case). 5. Run the Program Your final program (if there were no errors in the previous step) will have a .EXE ending. To just run it, type: proj If you want to use the CodeView debugger to examine the instructions, registers, etc.: cv proj This brings up the regular full-screen version of CodeView. Running MASM and CodeView PWB: The basic steps for creating, building, and debugging an assembly language program are given below. The examples given in this first session are very simple; their main purpose is to show how o uses the PWB environment. A project is a complete set of files needed to define and build an assembly language program. The source language files for your programs are, of course, part of this project, but also there are listing files, and symbol table files for debugging, and files giving directions for building your program. It is best to create a separate folder to contain the project files for each programming assignment. You should copy this folder on a floppy disk for later use. 1. Create a folder for your new project. For the first assignment, the folder name could be lab1. 2. Copy any files that are needed from your floppy disk into your folder. 3. Run PWB.EXE by double clicking on the file or its shortcut in the C:\MASM611\BIN folder. The shortcut may be copied and the copy moved to the desktop to make it easier to find the PWB. 4. Once the PWB is running (and the DOS window appears), you may create a new project using the project menu. Type the correct path to the new project folder with project name and press the set project template button. Select Runtime support: None, Project Templates: DOS:EXE, and press OK. 5. You don't have any program files to add to the project yet, so click save list when the add file window appears. 6. Under the Options menu, select build options. Select Use Debug Options. Select OK. 7. Using the Options menu:language options:MASM, select Set Debug Options. Check the boxes that will create a listing file with source, machine language, and symbol table: Generate Listing File, List Generated Instructions, Include all Source Lines, CodeView Debugger. Press OK. 8. Using the Options menu:link options, select CodeView debugger, debug options. Press the additional debug options "button" and select Full map output. This will give you a link map that tells where each program component will be loaded. Select OK.

9. Select new under the file menu to get an editor window for your program. Enter the program. Save your program naming it with a .ASM suffix, e.g. : P11.ASM 10. Select edit project from the project menu, and add your new assembly program into the project list. Save the list. 11. Start the debugger, running your program, by selecting debug from the Run menu. It will ask you to build your project. That is a good idea, select Rebuild All. The Assembler will assemble your code, the linker will be called, and if there are no errors, the debugger window will appear. You can then start debugging. 12. If there were any errors, select View Results, then click next error under the project menu. It will show you the line containing the error in your source program, and you can correct it at this point. 13. Continue asking to see the next error until you run out of errors. 14. Select debug from the project window to have another try. 15. Repeat this procedure until you finally get the debugger. 16. Now you can run your program. You may step through your program one line at a time by using F8 and F10, or you may select go (F5) and run it without interruption. 17. In order to watch the contents of memory change, you need to select the memory window options in the options menu (of the debugger). Check the box which requests that the memory window be continually re-evaluated. If you don't check this box, the memory window will continue to reflect memory contents just before your program started running. 18. Breakpoints may be inserted at any line of code using the set breakpoint item in the Data menu, or press F9. If go (or F5) is selected, the program will stop on any line encountered with a breakpoint that is set. 19. Selecting source window options from the window menu allows you to have mixed source lines and object code. This will allow you to compare the instructions that are actually running with the lines of source code that you provided. 20. F10 will single step through your code, but will not single step through any called subroutines (It will "step-over" the subroutine call.) The subroutine will be called correctly; it will simply not be debugged. This is handy when you are using a subroutine that has already been debugged, or when a system routine is called. 21. F8 will single "step-into" a subroutine that is called, allowing you to debug the subroutine itself. 22. You may execute down to a given instruction by right clicking on the source line, moving the cursor to the source line, and then pressing the F7 key. 23. Taking the time to add comments to your code while first entering it will save much time in the long run. It is very hard to figure out what an undocumented assembly language program is doing after even a brief intermission. Comments help you to quickly locate desired sections of code. 24. Note: On the machines at the lab, it is frequently necessary to make sure the path is set correctly for the PWB to run. Right mouse-click on the PWB shortcut icon. Select Properties, and then select the Program tab. Under Batch file, type C:\MASM611\BIN\NEW-VARS. In the lab, only the network administrator can do this procedure.

Experiment No 2 Input and Output Introduction: In this experiment you will be introduced to the basic Input and Output (I/O) operations using assembly language. You will use the DOS interrupt (INT 21H) function calls to access the keyboard and video display. More details will also be given on the structure of an assembly language program. The following major points are discussed: - Variable declaration using: DB, DW, DD - Constant declaration using: EQU - OFFSET operator - INT 21H with the functions 1, 2, 8 and 9. Objectives: 1- Demonstrate keyboard access using the DOS INT 21H function calls 01, 02 and 08. 2- Demonstrate string display using the DOS INT 21H function call 09. 3- Show the difference between keyboard read functions, with echo and without echo. References: Textbook: Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.5 and 3.3. I/O DOS Function Calls: Table 2. 1 summarizes the main I/O functions. These functions are mainly used to read a character or a string from the keyboard, which could be an input data to a program, and display characters or strings, which could be results, or an output, of a program: Function 01H
Input in AH
Output in AL
02H, 06H AH, Character in DL 08H AH 09H AH

DOS Display Functions: These are DOS functions 02 and 06 for a single character display, and 09 for a string display. DOS Functions 02 and 06: Both functions are identical, except that function 02 can be interrupted by a control break (Ctrl-Break), while function 06 cannot. To display a single character ASCII character at the current cursor position use the following sequence of instructions: MOV AH, 06H MOV DL, Character Code INT 21H
;(Or: MOV AH, 02H)
The Character Code may be the ASCII code of the character taken from the ASCII table (See Experiment 4 Table 4.1) or the character itself written between quotes. The following displays number 2 using its ASCII code: MOV AH, 06H MOV DL, 32H INT 21H This code also displays 2: MOV AH, 06H MOV DL, ‘2’ INT 21H DOS Functions 09: This function is used to display a string of characters ended with a ‘$’ sign. The following code displays the string MESSAGE defined as: MESSAGE DB ‘This is the Message to be displayed’, ‘$’ .CODE MOV DX, OFFSET MESSAGE MOV AH, 09H INT 21H
DOS Input functions: These include reading a single character, with or without echo, functions 01 and 08, and reading a whole string.

Function 01H and 08H INT 21H: To read single character and have it echoed (displayed) on the screen, use the following code: MOV AH, 01H INT 21H ;AL contains now the ASCII code of the character read from the ;keyboard. If the character is to be read without echo, such as reading a password, use the following code: MOV AH, 08H INT 21H ;AL contains now the ASCII code of the character read Reading a String: Reading a string is accomplished by Function 0AH INT 21H. DOS function 0AH will accept a string of text entered at the keyboard and copy that string into a memory buffer. DOS 0AH is invoked with DS:DX pointing to an input buffer, whose size should be at least three bytes longer than the largest input string anticipated. Before invoking DOS function 0AH, you must set the first byte of the buffer with the number of character spaces in the buffer. After returning from DOS function 0AH, the second byte of the buffer will contain a value giving the number of characters actually read form the keyboard (Table 2.2). Buffer Length
Actual Length

Directive is .stack for stack segment Should be declared even if program itself doesn't use stack needed for subroutine calling (return address) and possibly passing parameters May be needed to temporarily save registers or variable content Will be needed for interrupt handling while program is running
Memory allocation: -
Directive is .data for data segment All variables must be declared, and memory space for each allocated. Data definition directive can be followed by a single value, or a list of values separated by commas Different data definition directives for different size types of memory 1. DB - define byte (8 bits) 2. DW - define word (16 bits) 3. DD - define double word (32 bits) 4. DQ - define quad word (64 bits)
Code Segment: - Directive is .code for code segment - The "program" resides here End of Program: - Directive is End - Tells assembler that this is the end of the program Note: The sequence of instructions at the beginning of a program used to assign the data segment: MOV AX, @DATA MOV DS, AX May be replaced by the following directive: .STARTUP which assigns both DATA and CODE segments, and hence no warning will be issued by the assembler. However, it should be noted that the program would start at address CS:0017h. The Startup directive occupies the bytes CS:0000 to CS:0017. Identically, the sequence used to terminate and exit to DOS can be replaced by the .EXIT directive, which has exactly the same effect.

Experiment No 4 Indexing and Data Manipulation Introduction: In this experiment you will be introduced to data transfer and arithmetic instructions. You will also deal with indexing, and array manipulation. Objectives: 1- Basic arithmetic instructions 2- Use of the ASCII table. 3- Manipulation of arrays References: Textbook: -
Sections 3.1 and 3.2, Lecture notes.
ASCII code Table: The ASCII table is a double entry table, which contains all alphanumeric characters and symbols. Each symbol, or character, has its own ASCII code. This code can either be in decimal or hexadecimal format. The code of a given character is found by concatenating the column number with the row number, if the code is to be expressed in hexadecimal. The row number is to be the least significant. For the same code to be expressed in decimal, the row number is added to the column number (See example given below). As an example, the symbol’ $’ is at the intersection of row 4 and column 2, therefore its ASCII code is 24H. The decimal equivalent of this code can be found by adding 4 to 32, which yields 36. The following tables show the ASCII codes (Table 4.1), and examples on the use of the ASCII table (Table 4.2), and how to calculate the ASCII codes for different characters and symbols.

The DUP directive may be used to reserve more than one consecutive data item and initialize reserved items to the same value. For example, the instruction: ByteArray
DB 100 DUP(0)
Instructs the assembler to reserve an array of 100 bytes, and initializes each byte to the value zero. If the “0” in the above declaration is replaced with “?”, the assembler will not initialize the bytes of the array to any value. To access the different elements of an array, we use one of the following addressing modes (See Experiment # 3). -
Based addressing mode. Indexed addressing mode. Based-Indexed addressing mode.
The Based-Indexed addressing mode may be used to access a two-dimensional array. Here are examples of each case. Array1 DB 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 Array2 DB 10 DUP(0) Array3 DB 11,12,13,21,22,23,31,32,33 RowSize EQU 3 Based addressing mode: MOV BX, OFFSET Array1 ; Address Array1 MOV AL,[BX+4] ; Access 5th element of Array1 Indexed addressing mode: MOV DI, OFFSET Array2 MOV [DI+6],AL MOV SI,3 MOV Array2[SI],AL
; Address Array2 ; Copy to 7th element of Array2 ;Copy to 4th element of Array2
Based-Indexed addressing mode: MOV BX, OFFSET Array3 MOV SI,1*RowSize MOV DI,2*RowSize MOV AL, [BX+SI+1] MOV [BX+DI+2],AL
; Address Array3 ; Beginning of 2nd row ; Beginning of 3rd row ; Access 2nd element of 2nd row ; Access 3rd element of 3rd row
Remark: Notice that row R, has index (R-1), and element n has index (n-1).

Notes: The DAA (Decimal Adjust after Addition) instruction allows addition of numbers represented in 8-bit packed BCD code. It is used immediately after normal addition instruction operating on BCD codes. This instruction assumes the AL register as the source and the destination, and hence it requires no operand. The effect of DAS (Decimal Adjust after Subtraction) instruction is similar to that of DAA, except the fact that it is used after performing a subtraction. CBW and CWD are two instructions used to facilitate division of 8 and 16 bit signed numbers. Since division requires a double-width dividend, CBW converts an 8-bit signed number (in AL), to a word, where the MSB of AL register is copied to AH register. Similarly, CWD converts a 16-bit signed number to a 32-bit signed number (DX,AX). Logical Instructions: Logic shift and rotate instructions are called bit manipulation operations. These operations are designed for low-level operations, and are commonly used for lowlevel control of input/output devices. The list of the logic operations of the 8086 is given in Table 5.1, along with examples, and the effect of these operations on the flags. The “*” in the table means that the corresponding flag may change as a result of executing the instruction. The “-” means that the corresponding flag is not affected by the instruction, whereas the “?” means that the flag is undefined after executing the instruction.

They are commonly used to separate a bit or a group of bits in a register or in a memory location, for the purpose of testing, resetting or complementing. For example, if b is the value of a certain bit in a number. The related effects of the basic operations on a single bit are indicated in Table 5.3:

; Now Display AL as high digit first MOV AL, CL ; Read number again AND AL, 0FH ; Clear 4 high nibbles of AL ADD AL, 30H ; Convert to character ; Now Display AL as low digit second Displaying Data in any Number Base r: The basic idea behind displaying data in any number base is division. If a binary number is divided by 10, and the remainder of the division is saved as a significant digit in the result, the remainder must be a number between zero and nine. On the other hand, if a number is divided by the radix r, the remainder must be a number between zero and (r-1). Because of this, the resultant remainder will be a different number base than the input which is base 2. To convert from binary to any other base, use the following algorithm. Algorithm: 1. 2. 3. 4.
Divide the number to be converted by the desired radix (number base r). Save the remainder as a significant digit of the result. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the resulting quotient is zero. Display the remainders as digits of the result. Note that the first remainder is the least significant digit, while the last remainder is the most significant one.

The Shift Operations: The shift operations are used to multiply or divide a number by another number that is a power of 2 (i.e. 2n or 2 –n). Multiplication by 2 is achieved by a one-bit left shift, while division by 2 is achieved by a one-bit right shift. The Shift Arithmetic Right (SAR) instruction, is used to manipulate signed numbers. The regular Right Shift (SHR) of a signed number affects the sign bit, which could cause numbers to change their sign. The SAR preserves the sign bit by filling the vacated bits with the sign of the number. Shift Arithmetic Left (SAL) is identical in operation to SAR. The rotate operations are very similar to the shift operations, but the bits are shifted out from one end of a number and fed back into the other end to fill the vacated bits. They are provided to facilitate the shift of long numbers (i.e. numbers of more than 16 bits). They are also used to reposition a certain bit of a number into a desired bitlocation. The rotate right or left instructions through the carry flag (RCL and RCR) are similar to the regular rotate instructions (ROL and ROR), but the carry flag is considered as a part of the number. Hence, before the rotate operation, the carry flag bit is appended to the number as the least significant bit in the case of RCL, or as the most significant bit in the case of RCR.

Table 6. 1: Summary of the Shift and Rotate Instructions of the 8086 Microprocessor Compare instruction: The compare instruction is used to compare two numbers. At most one of these numbers may reside in memory. The compare instruction subtracts its source operand from its destination operand and sets the value of the status flags according to the subtraction result. The result of the subtraction is not stored anywhere. The flags are set as indicated in Table 6. 2. Instruction CMP
Example CMP AX, BX
Meaning If (AX = BX) then ZF Í 1 and CF Í 0 If (AX < BX) then ZF Í 0 and CF Í 1 If (AX > BX) then ZF Í 0 and CF Í 0
Table 6. 2: The Compare Instruction of the 8086 Microprocessor Jump Instructions: The jump instructions are used to transfer the flow of the process to the indicated operator. When the jump address is within the same segment, the jump is called intrasegment jump. When this address is outside the current segment, the jump is called inter-segment jump. An overview of all the jump instructions is given in Table 6. 3. Table 6. 4 lists the possible addressing modes used with the jump instructions. Whereas, Table 6. 5 gives examples on the use of such instructions.

You will verify the exchange of data between a main program and a subroutine in the 8086 environment. You will also use Macros, and as applications you will deal to a useful data representation: look-up tables. . You will need some of the programs developed in previous experiments to rewrite them in a more structured way. Objectives: 12345-

Macros: Macro sequences relieve the programmer from retyping the same instructions. They allow you create your own pseudo language for instruction sequences that often appear in programming. A macro sequence starts by the MACRO directive and ends by an ENDM directive. Associated with MACRO is the name of the macro and any parameters that are carried with the macro to the instructions between MACRO and ENDM statements. Program 7.3 contains two macros. A MACRO is declared and used as shown in the following example DISPLAY MACRO STRING MOV DX,OFFSET STRING MOV AH,09H INT 21H ENDM ;If “Message”is the string to be displayed, the ; Macro is called as follows: DISPLAY MESSAGE

KFUPM (2000 )
Experiment No 8
COE 205 Lab Manual
Macros can be saved in a separate file, to which a name such as “MACRO.INC” can be given. This file can then be used as a library, and therefore can be included in the program using the directive INCLUDE, in the following manner: INCLUDE MACRO.INC Provided that both, the program and the macro library are in the same directory. Alternatively the path has to be specified as follows: INCLUDE Path\MACRO.INC Labels local to a Macro: When a MACRO contains labels, and the Macro is used more than once in a program, which is usually the case, the assembler gives the following error: Label referenced more than once. To avoid such an error, these labels should be made local to the MACRO, this is done using the following: DISPLAY MACRO STRING Local Label1 … Label1:… … ENDM
The Stack: The stack is a special segment in memory used to facilitate subroutine handling. The SS register contains the Stack Segment number where the stack is stored. The ".STACK" directive instructs the assembler to reserve a stack segment of a desired size. For example, to reserve a stack segment of size 80 bytes, “.STACK 50” is used before the ".CODE" directive. In this case, the “.STACK” directive initializes the Stack Pointer to 50H. If the “.STACK” directive is missing from a program, the assembler issues the warning: “LINK: Warning L4021: no stack segment”. The stack always starts at a high address and grows towards the beginning of the stack segment at a lower address. When a program starts, the stack is empty, and its size is zero. The microprocessor stores data on the stack as needed, and uses the SP register to point to the last item stored on the stack. The stack size dynamically changes as data is stored or retrieved from the stack. The stack handling instructions are summarized in Table 7. 1. The PUSH instruction is used to store the content of a 16-bit register, or memory location, on the stack. It first decreases the content of SP by two and then stores the data into the two bytes on the top of the stack. The high order byte of the data goes to the high addressed byte in the stack.

Note: FR = Flag Register
Table 7. 1: Summary of the Satck Handling Instructions The PUSHF instruction is similar to the PUSH instruction, except that the PUSHF is used to push the contents of the flag register onto the stack. The POP and POPF instructions have a reverse action of the PUSH and PUSHF, respectively. The POP instruction retrieves a word from the stack and then increases SP by two. The POPF has the same effect, except that the word retrieved is saved to the flag register. Subroutine calls: A procedure is a reusable section of the software that is stored in memory once, but used as often as necessary. The CALL instruction links to the procedure and the RET (return) instruction returns from the procedure. The Stack stores the return address whenever a procedure is called during the execution of a program. The CALL instruction pushes the address of the instruction following the CALL (return address) onto the stack. The RET instruction removes an address from the stack, so the program returns to the instruction following the CALL. With the Assembler (MASM) there are specific ways for writing, and storing, procedures. A procedure begins with the PROC directive and ends with the ENDP directive. Each directive appears with the name of the procedure. The PROC directive is followed by the type of the procedure: NEAR (intra-segment) or FAR (intersegment). In MASM version 6.X, a NEAR or FAR procedure can be followed by the USES statement. The USES statement allows any number of registers to be automatically pushed onto the stack and popped from the stack within the procedure. Procedures that are to be used by all software (global) should be written as FAR procedures. Procedures that are used by a given task (local) are normally defined as NEAR procedures.

The CALL Instruction: The CALL instruction transfers the flow of the program to the procedure. The CALL instruction differs from the jump instruction in the sense that a CALL saves a return address on the stack. The RET instruction return control to the instruction that immediately follows the CALL. There exist two types of calls: FAR and NEAR, and two types of addressing modes used with calls, Register and Indirect Memory modes. Near CALL: A near CALL is three bytes long, with the first byte containing the opcode, and the two remaining bytes containing the displacement or distance of ±32 K. When a NEAR CALL executes, it pushes the offset address of the next instruction on the stack. The offset address of the next instruction appears in the IP register. After saving this address, it then adds the displacement from bytes 2 and 3 to the IP to transfer control to the procedure. A variation of NEAR CALL exists, CALLN, but should be avoided. Far CALL: The FAR CALL can call a procedure anywhere in the system memory. It is a fivebyte instruction that contains an opcode followed by the next value for the IP and CS registers. Bytes 2 and 3 contain the new contents of IP, while bytes 4 and 5 contain the new contents for CS. The FAR CALL instruction places the contents of both IP and CS on the stack before jumping to the address indicated by bytes 2 to 5 of the instruction. This allows a call to a procedure anywhere in memory and return from that procedure. A variant of the FAR CALL is CALLF but should be avoided. CALLs with register operand: CALLs can contain a register operand. An example is CALL BX, in which the content of IP is pushed into the stack, and a jump is made to the offset address located in register BX, in the current code segment. This type of CALL uses a 16-bit offset address stored in any 16-bit register, except the segment registers. Program 7.1 illustrates the use of the CALL register instruction to call a procedure that begins at offset address DISP. The offset address DISP is placed into the BX register, then the CALL BX instruction calls the procedure beginning at address DISP. This program displays “OK” on the monitor screen. CALLs with Indirect Memory Address: A CALL with an indirect memory address is useful when different subroutines need to be chosen in a program. This selection process is often keyed with a number that addresses a CALL address in a lookup table. Program 7.2 shows three separate subroutines referenced by Number 1,2 and 3 as read from the keyboard. The calling sequence adjusts the value of AL and extends it to a 16-bit number before adding it to the location of the lookup table. This references one

of the three subroutines using the CALL TABLE[BX] instruction. When this program executes, the letter A is displayed when a 1 is typed, B if 2 and C if 3 is typed. The CALL instruction can also reference far pointers if the data in the table are defined as double-word data with the DD directive, using the CALL FAR PTR[SI] or CALL TABLE[SI] instructions. These instructions retrieve a 32-bit address from the data segment memory location addressed by SI and use it as the address of a far procedure. Parameter Passing: To pass data (parameters) between the main program and the routines, data may be left in the general-purpose registers. This method has the disadvantage of changing the contents of the registers every time the subroutine is called. A more elegant way is to exchange data through the stack, or through memory. The data to be passed to a subroutine is saved in the memory before calling the subroutine. All the registers that need to be saved, and are used by the subroutine, should also be saved and retrieved afterwards.

Experiment No 8 String Handling Instructions Introduction: In this experiment you will deal with string handling instructions, such as reading a string, moving a string from one memory location to another, and comparing two strings. You will need some of the programs developed in previous experiments to rewrite them in a more structured way. Objectives: 1- More on Macros, Subroutine Calls and Stack operation. 2- String Handling Instructions. 3- Introduction to the video display. References: -
Textbook: Sections 3.4, 3.5, Lecture notes.
String Handling Instructions: String handling instructions are very powerful because they allow the programmer to manipulate large blocks of data with relative ease. Block data manipulation occurs with the string instructions indicated in Table 8. 3, Table 8. 4 and Table 8. 4. Each of the string instructions indicated in Table 8. 2 define an operation for one element of a string only. Thus, these operations must be repeated to handle a string of more than one element. For repeating prefixes, see Table 8. 4. String handling instructions use the direction flag, SI and DI registers. The Direction Flag (DF) selects auto-increment or auto-decrement operation for the DI and SI registers during string operations. Whenever a string instruction transfers a byte, the contents of SI and/or DI increment or decrement by 1. If a word is transferred, the contents of SI and/or DI increment or decrement by 2.

The LODS Instruction: LODS loads AL or AX with data stored at the data-segment offset address indexed by the SI register. The LODSB causes a byte to be loaded into AL, and the LODSW causes a word to be loaded into AX. The STOS Instruction: The STOS instruction stores AL or AX at the extra-segment memory location addressed by the DI register, (in fact ES:DI). The STOSB stores a byte in AL at the extra-segment memory indicated by DI. The STOSW stores a word in AX at the extra-segment memory indicated by DI. Program 8.1 gives an example on the use of STOS instruction to clear the video memory. The MOVS Instruction: The MOVS instruction transfers data from one memory location to another. This is the only memory-to-memory transfer allowed in the Intel family of Microprocessors. The MOVS instruction transfers a byte or a word from the data-segment location addressed by SI to the extra-segment location addressed by DI. The pointers then increment or decrement as indicated by the direction flag (Table 8. 2).

String Comparisons: In order to allow a section of memory to be compared against a constant or another section of memory, the String Scan instruction SCAS (Table 8. 3) is used. The SCAS instruction compares the content of the AL register with a byte block of memory, or the AX register with a word block of memory. The opcode used for byte comparison is SCASB and for word comparison is SCASW (Table 8. 3). The Compare Strings Instruction (CMPS) compares two sections of memory data as bytes (CMPSB), or words (CMPSW). The contents of the data-segment memory indicated by SI are compared with the contents of the data-segment memory indicated by DI. The CMPS instruction increment both SI and DI if the direction flag (DF) is zero, or decrements both of them if DF is set to one. The CMPS instruction is normally used with either the REPE or REPNE prefix. Alternates to these prefixes are REPZ (repeat while zero) and REPNZ (repeat while not zero), though REPE and REPNE are more common (Table 8. 4). Mnemonics

Table 8. 3: String Compare Instructions Repeat Prefixes: Table 8. 4 summarizes the repeat prefixes to be used with the string instructions given in Table 8. 2 and Table 8. 3. The REP prefix: The REP prefix is added to any data transfer or compare instruction, except the LODS instruction. The REP prefix causes the CX register to decrement by 1 each time the string instruction executes. If CX reaches 0, the instruction terminates and the program continues with the next sequential instruction. The following example illustrates the of a move string using the REP prefix: MOV AX, @DATA MOV DS, AX MOV ES, AX ; Make ES = DS CLD ; Set Auto-Increment mode MOV CX, 20H MOV SI, OFFSET DATA1 MOV DI, OFFSET DATA2 REP MOVSB COE Department

Table 8. 4: Prefixes fo use with basic string instructions Examples on the use of the SCAS and CMPS instructions: The following example shows how to search a memory section of 100 bytes in length and starting at location BLOCK.

The next example illustrates a short procedure that compares two sections of memory searching for a match. The CMPSB instruction is prefixed with a REPE. This causes the search to continue as long as an equal condition exists. When the CX register becomes 0, or an unequal condition exists, the CMPSB instruction stops execution. After the CMPSB instruction ends, the CX register is zero or the flags indicate an equal condition when the two strings match. If CX is not zero or the flags indicate a not-equal condition, the strings do not match. MATCH

Experiment No 9 Accessing Video Memory Introduction: This experiment introduces the use of the VGA controller and BIOS INT 10H functions to access video memory using mode 12H graphics mode. You will be provided with some routines that use the video modes. These routines can be inserted into your programs. Objectives: 3- Use the 640x480 16-color graphics display mode. 4- Use mode 12H to divide the screen into a 53 line by 80 character per line to display blocks of colors. 5- Display text on the 640x480 16-color graphics display without changing the background color. References: -
Textbook: Sections Lecture notes.
Text Mode: In DOS mode, the video text memory is located at B800:0000 through B800:FFFF and contains ASCII data and attributes for display. In text mode, the following functions are used to display data on the screen. Function 02H: Displays one character. May be interrupted by a Ctrl Break Function 06H: May not be interrupted by a Ctrl Break Function 09H: Used to display a character string terminated by a $ sign. Graphics Mode: The 640x480 16-color graphics display mode uses memory location A000:0000 through A000:FFFF to access graphics data. In order to display 16 colors with a resolution of 640x 480 a memory greater than 64K bytes is required. Because 16 colors require 4 bits, and the resolution is 640 x 480 (i.e. 307,200 pixels), the memory system requires 640 x 480 x 4 (i.e. 1,228,800 bits ) or 153,600 bytes of video memory in this display mode. To allow access to such as amount of memory, mode 12H display is designed to be accessed in bit planes. A bit plane is a linear section of memory that contains one of the four bits to display the 16 colors. Each bit plane requires 307,200 bits of memory, stored in 38,400 bytes of memory. The 64K bytes at segment A000H are enough to only address a single bit plane at a time. The bit plane is addressed at memory

locations A000:0000 through A000:95FF. In a 640x480 display, location A000:0000 represents the upper leftmost 8 pixels, and location A000:95FF represents the lower rightmost 8 pixels. There are four planes, or banks of memory, that overlap this address range to represent the four bits or color for each pixel ( Figure 9. 1). To change the color of one pixel, on the video display, four bits need to be changed, one in each bit plane. The color codes used for a standard VGA display are shown in Table 9.2. If all 4 bit planes are cleared, black is the pixel color.

Accessing the Video Memory: Access to video memory in mode 12H is accomplished through the following steps: Step 1: Read the byte of memory to be changed, to load the bit plane information into the video card. Step 2: Select and address a single pixel (bit) through the graphics address register (GAR) and bit mask register (BMR). This is accomplished by sending an 8 out to I/O port 03CEH, which represents the GAR. Steps 1 and 2 are done through the following set of instructions: MOV DX, 03CEH MOV AL, 08 OUT DX, AL
; Select VGA address card ; Index of 8 ; Select Index 8
Step 3: Load AL with the bits to be changed (a one bit represents a pixel to be changed), and send this out to the Bit Mask Register (BMR), or I/O port 03CFH.

MOV DX, 03CFH MOV AL, 80H OUT DX, AL
; Select BMR ; Place mask in AL ; Select leftmost bit, in this case ; using 80H.
Step 4: Set all mask bits to 1’s (1111 or 0FH) in the Map Mask Register (MMR) at sequencer offset 2, and write color 0 to the VGA card (black) to the address containing the pixel, to clear the old color from the pixel. Mask bits select the bit planes to be changed. If all are selected and a color 0 is written, all four-bit planes are cleared to zero. To do so, use the following code: MOV DX, 03C4H MOV AL, 02 OUT DX, AL
; Select VGA sequencer register ; Index of 2 ; Select Index 2
MOV DX, 03C5H MOV AL, 0FH OUT DX, AL
; Address MMR ; Mask to 1111 binary
Step 5: Send the desired color number to the MMR and write an FFH to the video memory. This places a logic one in only the selected bit planes. To write a new color to a pixel on the screen, use the following instructions: MOV AL, Color ; Choose color; e.g. 03 for cyan OUT DX, AL ; Select color ; Next write an FFH to the selected video memory location Register GAR BMR MMR

Table9.2: Colors Available to VGA, Mode 12H DIRECT VIDEO ACCESS IN TEXT MODE
The characters seen on the video monitor correspond directly to ASCII bytes stored in the video RAM. Thus to display a character, by direct video access, one need only place the ASCII code for that character into the correct video RAM location. Example: The following program fills a screen with A’s by direct video access. It uses the default text mode 3 ,STACK 200 .CODE .STARTUP MOV AX , 0B800H MOV DS , AX MOV CX , 2000 MOV DI , 0 FILL_PAGE: MOV WORD PTR [DI] , 7041h ADD DI , 2 LOOP FILL_PAGE MOV AH , 08H

The formula for calculating a video memory offset address, in video page 0, given a screen row and column coordinate pair is: Character offset = ( row# * 80 + column# ) * 2 = ( row# * (64 + 16) + column# ) * 2 Using the above formula the following procedure calculates an 80 * 25 text-mode memory address from a pair of row and column coordinates, contained in DH and DL respectively: COE Department

; AX := row# ; AX := row# * 2 ; AX := row# * 4 ; AX := row# * 8 ; AX := row# * 16 ; DI := row# * 16 ; AX := row# * 32 ; AX := row# * 64 ; DI := row# * 80 ; AX := column# ; DI := row# * 80 + column# ; DI := ( row# * 80 + column# ) * 2
Thus, for example, to display a yellow blinking T on a green background at row 6 and column 37, by direct video access, use : MOV DH , 6 MOV DL , 37 CALL CALC_ADDRESS MOV AH , 10101110B MOV AL , ‘T’ STOSW
; row#6 ; column#37 ; attribute: yellow on green
Note: The effect of STOSW is: MOV ES:[DI] , AL MOV ES:[DI + 1] , AH
Using BIOS INT 10H to access the video display: Another way of accessing video memory is through INT 10H. This method is recommended for most applications, since it frees the user from the burden of calculating video memory addresses. The following are most functions used with INT 10H, these allow most useful video tasks. Note that INT 10H preserves only the BX, CX, DX, and the segment registers Accessing the Video Memory: Note that color codes are arranged so that the leftmost bit represents bright, and the next three bits represent red, blue and green respectively. Access to the video memory is explained in the following sections. COE Department

Before accessing video, make sure that you save the current video mode so that you can restore it once you finish your program. This can be done using the following sequence of instructions: ( INT 10H ) MOV AH,0FH INT 10H PUSH AX ………… POP AX MOV AH,00 INT 10H
;Get current video mode ;Save Video mode AL and Number of columns AH ;Restore Video mode AL and Number of columns AH
Select Video Mode: MOV AH, 00 MOV AL, VIDEO_MODE INT 10H Function 00 automatically clears the screen. To preserve the screen while changing the mode set the most significant bit of AL to 1. MOV MOV OR INT
AH, 00 AL, VIDEO_MODE AL, 80H 10H
Get Current Video Mode: MOV AH, 0FH INT 10H PUSH AX

Experiment No 10 Interrupts Introduction: On the 80x86, there are three types of events commonly known as interrupts: traps, exceptions, and interrupts (hardware interrupts). In this experiment we will describe each of these forms and discuss their support on the 80x86 CPU’s and PC compatible machines. We will also describe Interrupt Service Routines (ISR) and Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) programs. A TSR is a program that remains in memory after execution. The purpose of a TSR is to install an interrupt hook. This experiment illustrates the installation of TSR software using interrupt hooks and hot-key sequences. In most cases, a TSR is activated by either an INT 8 clock tick, or a hot-key sequence. Objectives: 1234-
Install, use and uninstall an Interrupt Service Routine (ISR). Install interrupt service procedures (hooks) as TSR software. Install a TSR interrupt hook that uses the clock tick interrupt (INT 8). Install a TSR interrupt hook that intercepts the keyboard and responds to a particular key code or hot-key.

In the following we will describe each of these forms and discuss their implementation. Although the terms trap and exception are often used synonymously, we will use the term trap to denote a programmer initiated and expected transfer of control to a special handler routine. Traps: Traps, or software interrupts, are specialized subroutine calls invoked by a softwareinterrupt. The 80x86 int instruction is the main instruction for executing a trap. Since traps execute via an explicit instruction, it is easy to determine exactly which instructions in a program will invoke a trap handling routine. There are two main differences between a trap and an arbitrary far procedure call: the instruction used to

call the routine (CALL vs. INT) and the fact that a trap pushes the flags on the stack so you the IRET instruction must be used to return from it. The main purpose of a trap is to provide a fixed subroutine that various programs can call without having to actually know the run-time address. The INT 21h instruction is an example of a trap invocation. Programs do not have to know the actual memory address of DOS entry point to call DOS. Instead, DOS patches the interrupt 21h vector when it loads into memory. When an INT 21h is executed, the 80x86 automatically transfer control to DOS entry point. Traps are used to call a resident program function. By patching an interrupt vector to point at a subroutine within the resident code, other programs that run after the resident program terminates can call the resident subroutines by executing the appropriate INT instruction. Most resident programs do not use a separate interrupt vector entry for each function they provide. Instead, they usually use a single interrupt vector and transfer control to an appropriate routine through a function number that the caller passes in a register, usually and conventionally the AH register. A typical trap handler would execute a case statement on the value in the AH register and transfer control to the appropriate handler function. Exceptions: An exception is an automatically generated trap, forced rather than requested, that occurs in response to some exceptional condition. Generally, there isn't a specific instruction associated with an exception, instead, an exception occurs in response to some erroneous behavior of normal program execution. Examples of conditions that may cause an exception include executing a division instruction with a zero divisor, executing an illegal opcode, and a memory protection fault. Whenever such a condition occurs, the CPU immediately suspends execution of the current instruction and transfers control to an exception handler routine. This routine can decide how to handle the exceptional condition; it can attempt to rectify the problem or abort the program and print an appropriate error message. Exceptions occur when an abnormal condition occurs during execution. There are fewer than eight possible exceptions on machines running in real mode. Protected mode execution provides many others. Although exception handlers are user defined, the 80x86 hardware defines the exceptions that can occur. The 80x86 also assigns a fixed interrupt number to each of the exceptions. Table 10. 1 describes each of these exceptions in detail. In general, an exception handler preserves all registers. However, there are several special cases where you may want to tweak a register value before returning. Nevertheless, you should not arbitrarily modify registers in an exception handling routine unless you intend to immediately abort the execution of your program.

INT #
Exception Function
Description
INT 0
Divide Error
Occurs whenever an attempt to divide a value by zero or the quotient does not fit in the destination register when using the div or IDIV instructions. The FPU's FDIV and FDIVR instructions do not raise this exception.
INT 1
Single Step (Trace)
Occurs after every instruction if the trace bit in the flag register is set. Debuggers will often set this flag to trace the execution of a program.
INT 3
Breakpoint
This exception is actually a trap, not an exception. It occurs when the CPU executes an INT3 instruction. However, it is considered as an exception since programmers rarely put INT 3 instructions directly into their programs. Instead, a debugger like CodeView often manages the placement and removal of INT 3 instructions.
INT 4
Overflow
Like INT 3, this exception is technically a trap. It is raised when an INTO instruction is executed and the overflow flag is set. If the overflow flag is clear, the INTO instruction is a NOP. If the overflow flag is set, INTO behaves like an INT 4 instruction. An INTO instruction can be inserted after an integer computation to check for an arithmetic overflow.
INT 6
Invalid Opcode
The 80286 and later processors raise this exception if an attempt to execute an opcode that does not correspond to a legal 80x86 instruction is made. These processors also raise this exception if you attempt to execute a bound, LDS, LES, LIDT, or other instruction that requires a memory operand but you specify a register operand in the mod/rm field of the mod/reg/rm byte.
INT 7
Coprocessor Not Available
The 80286 and later processors raise this exception if an FPU (or other coprocessor) instruction is attempted to execute without having the coprocessor installed. This exception can be used to simulate the coprocessor in software.
INTO
Table 10. 1: Exceptions Hardware interrupts: Hardware interrupts, or simply interrupts, are program control interruptions based on an external hardware event (external to the CPU). These interrupts generally have nothing at all to do with the instructions currently executing; instead, some event, such as pressing a key on the keyboard or a time out on a timer chip, informs the CPU that a device needs some attention. The CPU interrupts the currently executing program, services the device, and then returns control back to the program. On the PC, interrupts come from many different sources. The primary sources of interrupts, however, are the timer chip, keyboard, serial ports, parallel ports, disk drives, CMOS real-time clock, mouse, sound cards, and other peripheral devices. These devices connect to an Intel 8259A programmable interrupt controller (PIC) that prioritizes the interrupts and interfaces with the 80x86 CPU. The 8259A chip adds considerable complexity to the software that processes interrupts, so it makes perfect sense to discuss the PIC first, before trying to describe how the interrupt service routines have to deal with it. Afterwards, this section will briefly describe each device COE Department

and the conditions under which it interrupts the CPU. This text will fully describe many of these devices in later chapters, so this chapter will not go into a lot of detail except when discussing the timer interrupt. 80x86 Interrupt Structure and Interrupt Service Routines: An interrupt service routine is a procedure written specifically to handle a trap, exception, or interrupt. Although different phenomenon cause traps, exceptions, and interrupts, the structure of an interrupt service routine, or ISR, is approximately the same for each of these. The 80x86 allow up to 256 vectored interrupts. This means that up to 256 different sources can exist for an interrupt and the 80x86 will directly call the service routine for that interrupt without any software processing. Non-vectored interrupts transfer control directly to a single interrupt service routine, regardless of the interrupt source. The 80x86 provides a 256 entry interrupt vector table beginning at address 0000:0000 in memory. This is a 1Kbyte table containing 256 4-byte entries. Each entry in this table contains a segmented address that points at the interrupt service routine in memory. Generally, we will refer to interrupts by their index into this table, so the address (vector) of interrupt n is at memory location 0000:n*4. Interrupt zero's vector is at address 0000:0000, interrupt one's vector is at address 0000:0004, etc. When an interrupt occurs, regardless of its source, the 80x86 does the following: 1. The CPU pushes the flags register onto the stack. 2. The CPU pushes a far return address (segment:offset) onto the stack, segment value first. 3. The CPU determines the cause of the interrupt, i.e., the interrupt number, and fetches the four byte interrupt vector from address 0000:vector*4. 4. The CPU transfers control to the routine specified by the interrupt vector table entry. After completion of these steps, the ISR takes control. When the ISR wants to return control, it must execute an IRET (interrupt return) instruction. The interrupt return pops the far return address and the flags off the stack. Note that executing a far return is insufficient since that would leave the flags on the stack. Hardware interrupts are processed differently than other types of interrupts. Upon entry into the hardware ISR, the 80x86 disables further hardware interrupts by clearing the interrupt flag. Traps and exceptions do not do this. If further hardware interrupts are to be disabled within a trap or exception handler, one must explicitly clear the interrupt flag with a clear interrupt flag instruction (CLI). Conversely, if interrupts are to be enabled within a hardware ISR, one must explicitly turn them back on with a Set Interrupt instruction (STI). Note that the 80x86's interrupt disable flag only affects hardware interrupts. Clearing the interrupt flag will not prevent the execution of a trap or an exception.

ISRs are written like almost any other assembly language procedure except that they return with an IRET instruction rather than ret. Although the distance of the ISR procedure (near vs. far) is usually of no significance, you should make all ISRs far procedures. This will make programming easier if you decide to call an ISR directly rather than using the normal interrupt handling mechanism. Exceptions and hardware interrupts ISRs have a very special restriction: they must preserve all registers they modify. DOS Memory Usage and TSRs When DOS is first booted, the memory layout will look something like Figure 10. 1. DOS maintains a free memory pointer that points to the beginning of the block of free memory.
Figure 10. 1: DOS Memory with no active application When an application program is run, DOS loads this application starting at the address the free memory pointer contains. Since DOS runs only a single application at a time, all the memory, starting from the free memory pointer to the end of RAM (0BFFFFh), is available for the application’s use. When the program terminates normally, via DOS function 4CH, MS-DOS reclaims the memory in use by the application and resets the free memory pointer to just above DOS in low memory.

MS-DOS provides a second termination call which is identical to the terminate call e except that it does not reset the free memory pointer to reclaim all the memory in use by the application. Instead, this terminate-and-stay-resident call frees all but a specified block of memory. The TSR call (AH = 31H) requires two parameters, a process termination code in the AL register (usually zero) and DX must contain the size of the memory block in paragraphs to protect. When DOS executes this code, it adjusts the free memory pointer so that it points at a location DX*16 bytes above the program’s PSP. This leaves memory looking like this:
Figure 10. 3: DOS Memory Organization for a Resident Program When the user executes a new application, DOS loads it into memory at the new free memory pointer address, protecting the resident program in memory:

Writing and Installing a TSR program: A TSR program consists of two parts an installation section and a service routine. The service routine may consist of more than one ISR. The installation section is executed only at load time. The ISR is executed each time the interrupt is invoked. An ISR must end with a IRET instruction or a FAR JMP to another ISR. 1 / Installing an ISR: The installation section prepares the TSR program’s service routine to be used by other programs or to service a hardware interrupt. The installation uses INT 21H Function 25H. The following code is a typical installation section: MOV AX, CS MOV DS, AX MOV DX, Offset Pgm_ISR MOV AH, 25H MOV AL, Int_Number INT 21H 2 / Make an ISR a TSR: This procedure uses INT 21H Function 31H. DX contains the number of paragraphs to be kept in memory. The following code makes the installed ISR a TSR routine. MOV DX, Number_Of_Paragraphs MOV AL, Return_Code MOV AH, 31H INT 21H Function 25H 31H 35H
Effect Set Interrupt Vector Make ISR as TSR Get Interrupt Vector for a Specified Interrupt.
Input DS:DX = Segment Offset Address DX= number of paragraphs to be kept in memory AL = Interrupt number
Output
ES:BX = Segment Offset Address
Table 10. 2: ISR Function Manipulation Notes: 1 - The code for an installation routine of a TSR should come after the service section, to ensure that it is freed by INT 21H Function 31H, which return control to DOS. Therefore, such a procedure does not need to have a RET instruction. 2 - The number of paragraphs to be kept resident in memory is found by dividing the number of bytes to be kept resident by 16. The following code performs such an operation:

Figure 10. 5: Memory Structure after a TSR program is installed User Defined TSRs: The software vectors from 60H through 67H and those from 0F1H through 0FFH in the Interrupt Vector Table are undefined and available for user defined ISRs. Program 10.1 installs an ISR at INT 60H. From the time the ISR is installed until either the system is powered down or INT60H is re-vectored to address some other routine, any program that contains the sequence: MOV AX, Operand INT 60H will display the message “Welcome To The Interesting World Of TSR Routines'. If we change the body of program 10.1, in the following way: DECIMAL_DISPLAY
PROC FAR MOV SI, 0000 MOV BX, 10
DIV_LOOP:
MOV AX,operand DIV BX MOV CS:ARRAY[SI], DL INC SI CMP AX, 0000 JNZ DIV_LOOP

ENDP
In this case a call to INT 60H will display the contents of AX register (operand) on the console screen in decimal notation. Another program, which displays a number passed through DX in different numbering systems will be given in the lab. The numbering system is decided by the value given in the AH register. Redifinition of an existing ISR: An existing system ISR can be redefined by replacing its vector by the vector of a user defined ISR. If execution is to resume at the redefined ISR, DOS function 35H is used to retrieve the segment:Offset address of the interrupt to be redefined. This address is then stored in a double-word variable (VAR). The address is then used by the new ISR to return control to the redefined ISR by executing the FAR jump: JMP CS:VAR If control is not to resume at the redefined ISR, the new ISR ends with an IRET. INT 21H Function 25H returns the 32-bit vector address of a specified interrupt vector in ES:BX (Table 10. 2). The following code retrieves the vector address of INT 09H: MOV AH, 35H MOV AL, 09H INT 21H MOV WORD PTR VAR,BX MOV WORD PTR VAR+2,BX
;Get Int. Vector ;For INT 09H ;Store Offset Address ;Store Segment Number
When an existing system interrupt is being redefined, it is better to disable maskable interrupts. Hardware interrupts can occur at any time. For this reason, interrupts should be disabled while making changes in the vector table, in order to avoid the risk of an interrupt taking place while there is no valid address for a service routine. The CLI and STI instructions are used for this purpose (Table 10. 3). A typical installation routine is given in program 10.3. Instruction CLI STI

Typical Case, Interception of the Keyboard Interrupt: The keyboard port: When a key is pressed, the keyboard controller sends an 8-bit scan code to to port 60H. The key stroke triggers a hardware interrupt, which prompts the CPU to cal INT 09H. This interrupt inputs then the scan code from the port. The DOS keyboard status flag: The keyboard status flag is located at 0040:0017H. This status flag can be obtained either by: 1 – Using BIOS INT 16H, function 02H: MOV AH, 02H INT 16H ;Status flag returned in AL register or: 2 – Directly reading segment 40H: MOV AX, 0040H MOV ES, AX MOV DI, 0017H MOV AL, ES:[DI] To test for the status of a bit use the TEST instruction.

Experiment No 11 Using the Mouse Introduction: The mouse is an I/O device that replaces the arrow keys on the keyboard for graphical and text style programs. This experiment shows how to add the mouse to applications through a series of macros that enable and allow the mouse to function. Objectives: 1- Develop macros that detect the mouse and enable it for applications. 2- Develop macros that track the mouse position and test button status. 3- Use the mouse in simple programs. References: 1. Barry B. Brey, “Programming the 80286, 80386, 80486, and Pentium-Based Personal Computer”, Prentice Hall, (1996). INT 33H: The mouse is controlled through INT 33H function call instructions. There are actually more than 50 functions for mouse control. However, we will limit ourselves to the most commonly used functions. These functions are listed in Table 11. . Function 00 01

Test the mouse: To be able to use the mouse it must be first tested wether it is present or not. To detect the presence of the mouse and be able to use it, the following steps are to be followed. Step 1: Test Interrupt Vector 33H to see if it contains a value other than zero. A zero indicates that the mouse driver has not been installed yet. Step 2: If the vector is not zero, check if it points to an IRET (value CFH) instruction. For some operating systems, an IRET indicates that the vector is unsued. Step 3: If the vector is neither zero nor does it point to an IRET instruction, then use the following code to test for the presence of the mouse. MOV AX, 0000 INT 33H If a zero is returned in AX, ther is no mouse otherwise, the mouse is present. The following MACRO tests for the presence of the mouse: MP

Enabling the Mouse: The presence of a mouse does not mean that it can be used, unless it is enabled. The mouse cursor is enabled with INT 33H function number 01H, and disabled with function number 02H. Neither of these functions returns any information to the caller. The following macros (see below) turn the cursor ON and OFF. The mouse cursor is off until the mouse driver is enabled. If the mouse cursor is enabled and data are displayed to the screen, the computer places a copy of the mouse pointer on the screen. If n items are displayed on the screen, the mouse pointer is also displayed n times. To avoid this problem, the mouse pointer should always be turned OFF before updating the video information, and then turned ON after the update is complete. MON MACRO MOV AX, 0001H INT 33H ENDM
;Enable Mouse Pointer
MOFF MACRO MOV AX, 0002H INT 33H ENDM
;Disable Mouse Pointer
Tracking the Mouse Button: Mouse INT 33H function number 5 returns the button information and position of the last press. When called AX = 5 and BX = the button being tested = 0, 1 and 4 for respectively left, right and middle in case of a three button mouse. On return from function 5, AX gives the button status, i.e. if a button is being pressed. Bit 0 Bit 1 Bit 2 BX CX DX
= 1 for the left button = 1 for the right button = 1 for the middle button = number of times the button has been pressed, since the last time this function was called. = horizontal position = vertical position
The following Macro is used for the above purpose: MBUT MACRO NUM MOV AX, 0005H MOV BX, NUM INT 33H ENDM

Tracking the Mouse Position: In the 80x25-text mode, the values in CX range from 0 to 632 and the values in DX range from 0 to 192 by increments of 8. As an example line 1 position 3 returns CX = 8 and DX = 24. Function 5 returns the mouse cursor position at the most recent button press, whereas function 3 returns the mouse position on the fly, i.e. in real-time, as it occurs. The following macro is used for that purpose. MRTime

ENDM The Mouse in Graphics Mode: To have a good understanding of how the mouse works in video mode, it is of benefit to try program 11.2. To mode the mouse cursor to position X (horizontal) and Y (vertical), use INT 10H function 02H. Function 02H

Experiment No 12 Serial Communications PC Interfacing Through The Serial Ports Introduction: In general, most PCs have two or more serial ports used to interface the PC to some peripherals, printer, modem, mouse, …etc. In this experiment you will be introduced to the interfacing of two PC's through their serial ports. You will also transfer data between the two PC's. This experiment would be of interest to students who are taking COE 342 "Data Communication" course. Objectives: 1234-
Serial data transmission Use of Interrupt 14H Port configuration. Sending and receiving data through the serial ports.

3- COE 342 "Data Communication" lecture notes. Serial Port Programming: The PC serial ports may be accessed using two different ways, either through direct programming, or using INT 14H. Programming directly the serial ports requires a deep understanding of the serial port hardware. Table 12.1 gives the addresses of the different PC serial ports, and the associated interrupt numbers. Name COM 1 COM 2 COM 3 COM 4
Address 3F8 H 2F8 H 3E8 H 2E8 H

Table 12.2: Interrupt 14h The serial port number (0 to 3) is specified in the DX register (0=COM1:, 1=COM2:, etc.). INT 14h expects and returns other data in the AL or AX register. The different uses of the functions of INT 14H are summarized in the following sections. AH = 0: Serial Port Initialization: Sub-function zero initializes a serial port. This call lets you set the baud rate, select parity modes, select the number of stop bits, and the number of bits transmitted over the serial line. These parameters are all specified by the value in the AL register using the following bit encoding: Bits 5..7 0..1 2 3..4 1 1 1
Function Baud Rate Character Size Stop Bits Parity Bits 0 0 1
Character Size 7 bits 8 bits
7 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1

4 0 0 1 1 2 0 1
3 0 1 0 1
Parity No parity Odd parity No parity Even parity Stop bits One stop bit Two stop bits
Table 12.3: Configuring a serial port MSDOS, PC BIOS, and File I/O: Although the standard PC serial port hardware supports 19,200 baud, some BIOS's may not support this speed. Example: Initialize COM1: to 2400 baud, no parity, eight bit data, and two stop bits. MOV AH, 0 MOV AL, 10100111B MOV DX, 0 INT 14H
;INITIALIZE OPCODE ;PARAMETER DATA. ;COM1: PORT.
After the call to the initialization code, the serial port status is returned in AX (see Serial Port Status, AH = 3, below).

AH = 1: Transmit a Character to the Serial Port: This function transmits the character in the AL register through the serial port specified in the DX register. On return, if AH contains zero, then the character was transmitted properly. If bit 7 of AH contains one, upon return, then some sort of error occurred. The remaining seven bits contain all the error statuses returned by the GetStatus call except time out error (which is returned in bit seven). If an error is reported, you should use sub-function three to get the actual error values from the serial port hardware. Example: Transmit a character through the COM1 port MOV DX, 0 ; SELECT COM1: MOV AL, ‘A’ ; CHARACTER TO TRANSMIT MOV AH, 1 ; TRANSMIT OPCODE INT 14H TEST AH, 80H ; CHECK FOR ERROR JNZ SERIALERROR This function will wait until the serial port finishes transmitting the last character (if any) and then it will store the character into the transmit register. AH=2: Receive a Character from the Serial Port: Sub-function two is used to read a character from the serial port. On entry, DX contains the serial port number. On exit, AL contains the character read from the serial port and bit 7 of AH contains the error status. When this routine is called, it does not return to the caller until a character is received at the serial port. Example: Reading a character from the COM1 port MOV DX, 00 ; SELECT COM1: MOV AH, 02 ; RECEIVE OPCODE INT 14H TEST AH, 80H ; CHECK FOR ERROR JNZ SERIALERROR AH=3: Serial Port Status: This call returns status information about the serial port including whether or not an error has occurred, if a character has been received in the receive buffer, if the transmit buffer is empty, and other pieces of useful information. On entry into this routine, the DX register contains the serial port number. On exit, the AX register contains the following values:

There are a couple of useful bits, not pertaining to errors, returned in this status information. If the data available bit is set (bit #8), then the serial port has received data and you should read it from the serial port. The Transmitter holding register empty bit (bit #13) tells you if the transmit operation will be delayed while waiting for the current character to be transmitted or if the next character will be immediately transmitted. By testing these two bits, you can perform other operations while waiting for the transmit register to become available or for the receive register to contain a character.

Lab Work: 1- To be able to run the programs, you need to connect the PC's through their serial ports COM1 or COM2, with serial cables terminated by D9 type connectors. You will be supplied with such cables in the lab. You need also to work in groups of two. 2- Run program 12.1 and notice what the program is doing. 3- Run program 12.2 and notice what the program is doing 4- Modify program 12.1 to make it send at a baud rate of 9600. 5- Modify program 12.1 to make it send a string of 3 characters. 6- Modify program 12.2 to make it receive a string of 3 characters at a baud rate of 9600. Lab Assignment: Develop a program that displays a menu consisting of the following choices: • Configure Serial Port: prompts the user to enter one of the standard baud rate values. The program then configures the COM1 port with the given baud rate. (The rest of the configuration with default values) • Send String: prompts the user to enter the length of the string and then enter the string character by character. The program sends each character as soon as it is entered. • Receive String: prompts the user to enter the length of the string. It then receives the string character by character and displays it on the screen. • Send File (Optional): prompts the user to enter the location of the file and then sends that file. (Needs more information about handling files. Ask the instructor for References to that information.) • Receive File (Optional): receives the file. (Needs more information about handling files. Ask the instructor for References to that information.)
