[PDF] 8086 registers segment

8086 Segment Registers The 8086 has four special segment registers: cs, ds, es, and ss. These stand for Code Seg- ment, Data Segment, Extra Segment, and Stack Segment, respectively. These registers are all 16 bits wide.

  • What is a segment register?

    A segment register changes the memory address accessed by 16 bits at a time, because its value is shifted left by 4 bits (or multiplied by 16) to cover the entire 20-bit address space. The segment register value is added to the addressing register's 16-bit value to produce the actual 20-bit memory address.

  • What is segment register in microprocessor?

    The segment registers stores the starting addresses of a segment. To get the exact location of data or instruction within a segment, an offset value (or displacement) is required.

  • What are the 4 registers in 8086?

    The registers inside the 8086 are all 16 bits. They are split up into four categories: General Purpose, Index, Status & Control, and Segment. The four general purpose registers are the AX, BX, CX, and DX registers.
  • The four segment registers shown in Figures 3-1 and 3–3 (CS, DS, ES, and SS) are used to "point" at location 0 (the base address) of each segment. This is a little "tricky" because the segment registers are only 16 bits wide, but the memory address is 20 bits wide.
