Intel Microprocessor Interview Question:

What are the various types of addressing modes for microprocessors?

Submitted by: Administrator

The various types of addressing modes for microprocessors are as follows:

- Direct Mode: In this mode of addressing the instruction in itself includes memory access. This can be accessed by the CPU directly.

- Indirect Mode: In this type of addressing the address which has been specified within the instruction contains the address of the operands.

- Register direct and indirect modes: In this mode as the name suggests no addresses are specified in this mode instead registers are specified.

- Immediate Mode: In this type of addressing mode the operand itself is the data.

- Relative Mode: In this mode the operand specified in the instruction is an offset address and not the actual address.
