2.2.1.1 Data Transfer Instructions
The instruction set contains 14 data transfer instructions. These instructions move single bytes
and words between memory and registers. They also move single bytes and words between the
AL or AX register and I/O ports. Table 2-3 lists the four types of data transfer instructions and
their functions.
Data transfer instructions are categorized as general purpose, input/output, address object and
flag transfer. The stack manipulation instructions, used for transferring flag contents and instruc-
tions used for loading segment registers are also included in this group. Figure 2-11 shows the
flag storage formats. The address object instructions manipulate the addresses of variables in-
stead of the values of the variables.
