I am learning Fixed Port Addressing. The lecture says that its for 8 bits transfer. There were two examples given in it,

  • IN AL, 6CH
  • OUT 6AH, AX

Now the second one takes data from register AX which is a 16 bit register. Was it holding a 8 bit address or would it be transferred from a 16 bit address into a 8 bit address?

    out 6ah, ax will write both bytes of ax to the 16 bit I/O port at 0x6a. A 16 bit port consists of two consecutive 8 bit ports.

    That is, it will write al to 0x6a and ah to 0x6b.
