The Intel 8085 ("eighty-eighty-five") is an 8-bit microprocessor produced by Intel and introduced in March 1976. [2] It is the last 8-bit microprocessor developed by Intel. It is software-binary compatible with the more-famous Intel 8080 with only two minor instructions added to support its added interrupt and serial input/output features.
Machine language monitor running on a W65C816S microprocessor, displaying code disassembly and dumps of processor register and memory. In computer programming, machine code is computer code consisting of machine language instructions, which are used to control a computer's central processing unit (CPU).
The XSAVE instruction set extensions are designed to save/restore CPU extended state (typically for the purpose of context switching) in a manner that can be extended to cover new instruction set extensions without the OS context-switching code needing to understand the specifics of the new extensions.
The instruction set architecture (ISA) that the computer final version (SAP-3) is designed to implement is patterned after and upward compatible with the ISA of the Intel 8080/8085 microprocessor family. Therefore, the instructions implemented in the three SAP computer variations are, in each case, a subset of the 8080/8085 instructions.
High-level machine instructions, made possible by microcode, helped further, as fewer more complex machine instructions require less memory bandwidth. For example, an operation on a character string can be done as a single machine instruction, thus avoiding multiple instruction fetches.
For example, the IBM 1401 was simulated on the later IBM/360 through use of microcode emulation. To monitor and execute the machine code instructions (but treated as an input stream) on the same hardware for test and debugging purposes, e.g. with memory protection (which protects against accidental or deliberate buffer overflow).
The assembly instruction nop will most likely expand to mov r0, r0 which is encoded 0xE1A00000 (little-endian architecture). [4] ARM T32 (16 bit) NOP: 2 0xb000 Opcode for ADD SP, #0 - Add zero to the stack pointer (No operation). The assembly instruction nop will most likely expand to mov r8, r8 which is encoded 0x46C0. [5] ARM T32 (32 bit) NOP ...
Separate from the stack definition of a MISC architecture, is the MISC architecture being defined by the number of instructions supported. Typically a minimal instruction set computer is viewed as having 32 or fewer instructions, [1] [2] [3] where NOP, RESET, and CPUID type instructions are usually not counted by consensus due to their fundamental nature.
