in intel 8086 why is the segment register content appended
by zero to generate physical address?



in intel 8086 why is the segment register content appended by zero to generate physical address?..

Answer / naresh

intel 8086 processor is 16 bit processor, so segment registers are 16 bit in size,but physical address need 20 bit,in order to generate 20 bit physical address segment register is appended by zero at last bits to make it 20 bit.This append process is taken by address generation circuit inside the 8086 chip.
For example segment register value is "1600 H", it's modified by address generation circuit by appending zero at last. the value is "16000 H"

This address is added with respective offset register to know the exact position in memory.

Paul the octopus who has been forecasting the outcome of FIFA world cup matches with tremendous accuracy has now been invited to predict ICC world cup matches in 2011. We will assume that the world cup contenders have been divided into 2 groups of 9 teams each. Each team in a group plays the other teams in the group. The top two teams from each group enter the semi finals ( after which the winner is decided by knockout). However, Paul has a soft spot for India and when India plays any team, Paul always backs India. Alas, his predictions on matches involving India are right only 2 out of 3 times. In order to qualify for the semi finals, it is sufficient for India to win 7 of its group matches. What is the probability that India will win the ICC world cup?
