The Correct option is 4

Concept:

MVI:  

  • MVI is a mnemonic, which actually means “Move Immediately”. With this instruction, we can load a register with an 8-bit or 1-Byte value.
  • This instruction supports an immediate addressing mode for specifying the data in the instruction.
  • In the instruction “d8” stands for any 8-bit data, and ‘r’ stands for any one of the registers e.g. A, B, C, D, E, H or L. So this r can replace any one of the seven registers.

As ‘r’ can have any of the seven register names, so there are seven opcodes for this type of instruction. It occupies 2-Bytes in the memory.

Mnemonics Operand Opcode Bytes
MVIA, Data 3E 2
MVI B, Data 06 2
MVI C, Data 0E 2
MVI D, Data 16 2
MVI E, Data 1E 2
MVI H, Data 26 2
MVI L, Data 2E 2
