New cards

Immediate Addressing

  • The operand value is stored directly inside the opcode, so the CPU uses it immediately and doesn’t need to access memory to fetch it.

2
New cards

Direct Addressing

  • The value in the opcode is the actual memory address of the data, so the CPU uses that address to fetch the required value from memory.

3
New cards

Indirect Addressing

  • The value in the opcode is the address of a memory location that contains another address, that second address holds the required data.

4
New cards

Indexed Addressing

  • The value in the opcode is added to the index register to calculate the memory location of the required data. Some CPUs then increment the index register automatically.
