Conditional call instructions in 8085 Microprocessor

In 8085 Instruction set, depending upon one of the flag bit values (excluding AC flag bit), the conditional call instructions will branch to a subroutine. The branch takes place based on the value of Cy flag, Z flag, P flag, or S flag. There is no call instruction based on the value of AC(Auxiliary Carry) flag bit. This is because generally, no one is interested in branching to a subroutine based on this flag bit value. The conditional call instructions are 3 Bytes in length, 1 Byte for the opcode, and another 2 Bytes for the subroutine address i.e.low-order Byte and high-Byte of the address values.
