Statement: Convert the HEX number in memory to its equivalent decimal number
Source Program:
LXI H, 4150 ; Point to data
LXI B, 0000 ; Initialize hundreds= 0, Tens=0
MOV A, M ; Get hex data to A
LOOP: SUI 64
JC LOOP 1
INR B ; hundreds= hundreds+1
JMP LOOP
LOOP 1: ADI 64 ; if subtracted extra, add it clear carry flag
LOOP 2: SUI 0A
JC LOOP 3
INR C ; Tens=tens+1
JMP LOOP 2
LOOP 3: ADI 0A ; If subtracted extra, add it again
INX H ; A = Units
MOV M, B ; store hundreds
MOV B, A ; Combine Tens in C &
MOV A, C ; Units in A to form a
RLC ; Single 8-bit number
RLC
RLC
RLC
ADD B
INX H
MOV M, A ; Store tens & Units
HLT
Note: In this experiment the number is converted to its equivalent decimal number using the following logic. First count the number of hundreds, the number of tens & units present in that hex number. Then add up to get the equivalent decimal number.
Converting A9 we get:
A9 /64=45 Hundreds = 01
Since 64(100 decimal) cannot be subtracted from 45 no. of hundreds = 01. Now count tens
45/0A=3B Tens = 01
Now from 09, 0A cannot be subtracted. Hence tens = 06 the decimal equivalent of A9 is 169.
