Sorry for the vague title, I'm trying to move in the 8085 sim the right led from left to right and viceversa. I did it but I realised that the led is moving with "intermitences", is not an instant movement. I want to remove those intermitences.
This is my code:
MVI A,80
OUT 00
DCH: RRC
OUT 00
CPI 01
JZ IZQ
JMP DCH
IZQ: RLC
OUT 00
CPI 80
JZ DCH
JMP IZQ
where DCH is right and IZQ is left
I don't know your simulator but I assume that the simulator simulates an 8-bit latch at I/O port 0 (out 0
) with 8 LEDs connected.
You want to implement a bi-directional chase like in this animation in Wikipedia.
If you used a real setup with a real 8085, a real latch and real LEDs your code should work perfectly.
However you would have to use a very, very low CPU frequency in this case. Even when using a CPU frequency of 1 kHz (1/2000 of the nominal frequency) the program would run so fast that you would need a high-speed camera to observe the LEDs.
