Program to convert ASCII to HEX in 8085 Microprocessor


Here we will see one 8085 Microprocessor program. This program will convert ASCII to HEX values.

Problem Statement 

Write an 8085 Assembly language program to convert ASCII to Hexadecimal character values.

Discussion 

We know that the ASCII of number 00H is 30H (48D), and ASCII of 09H is 39H (57D). So all other numbers are in the range 30H to 39H. The ASCII value of 0AH is 41H (65D) and ASCII of 0FH is 46H (70D), so all other alphabets (B, C, D, E, F) are in the range 41H to 46H.

Here the logic is simple. We are checking whether the ASCII value is less than 58H (ASCII of 9 + 1) When the number is less 58, then it is numeric value. So we simply subtract 30H from the ASCII value, and when it is greater than 58H, then it is alphabetical value. So for that we are subtracting 37H.
